Model generator
===============

[](#model-generator)

Auto-generate models for a Laravel 5 project.

**Note: it is recommended to abandon this package and use corex/lmodel instead. It is more up-to-date and uses doctrine/dbal instead of native sql + other advantages. There are a few changes in configuration but easy to convert config to corex/lmodel.**

**You can continue to use this package. I will do my best to support future versions.**

**Only MySQL will be supported.**

Connects to your existing database and auto-generates models based on existing schema.

- Support for multiple dababases.
- Support for magic properties.
- Support for custom methods.
- Support for guarded fields.
- Support for "extends".
- Support for extra column-attributes after magic properties.
- Support for building constants in model.
- Support for multiple "uses".
- Support for custom "indent".

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Run `"composer require mrcorex/laravel-model-generator"`.

Add a configuration-file called corex and add following code to it. Modify it to suit your needs.

```
return [
    'laravel-model-generator' => [
        'path' => base_path('app/Models'),
        'namespace' => 'App\Models',
        'databaseSubDirectory' => true,
        'extends' => '',
        'indent' => "\t",
        'uses' => [],
        'const' => [
            '{connection}' => [
                '{table}' => [
                    'id' => '{id}',
                    'name' => '{name}',
                    'prefix' => '{prefix}',
                    'suffix' => '{suffix}',
                    'replace' => [
                        'XXXX' => 'YYYY',
                    ]
                ]
            ]
        ]
    ]
];
```

Settings:

- **path** - where models are saved.
- **namespace** - namespace of models.
- **databaseSubDirectory** - true/false if name of database-connection should be applied to namespace/directory. Name will automatically be converted to PascalCase.
- **extends** - (optional) class to extend instead of "Illuminate\\Database\\Eloquent\\Model". Default ''.
- **indent** - (optional) String to use as indent i.e. "\\t". Default 4 spaces.
- **uses** - (optional) List of use's. Warning: it does not clean up old uses, if you change "extends" after model initially was created.
- **const** - (optional) This section is used to specify connections and tables which should contains constants from content of table.
- **{connection}** - (optional) Name of connection.
- **{table}** - (optional) Name of table.
- **{id}** - (required) Name of field to get id from used in constant as value.
- **{name}** - (required) Name of field to get name of constant.
- **{prefix}** - (optional) Prefix to add to each name of constant.
- **{suffix}** - (optional) Suffix to add to each name of constant.
- **replace** - (optional) Values to replace in name of constant.

To register it and make sure you have this option available for development only, add following code to AppServiceProviders@register.

```
public function register()
{
    if ($this->app->environment() == 'local') {
        $this->app->register('CoRex\Generator\ModelGeneratorProvider');
    }
}
```
