Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.4+ - Laravel 11, 12, or 13 Features -------- [](#features) - **Model list** — searchable grid of all discovered Eloquent models - **Model detail** — DB columns, casts, fillable/hidden/guarded, relations with type badges and foreign keys, scopes with source snippets, traits, and accessor snippets - **Record lookup** — find any record by primary key or unique field; browse raw attributes, lazy-loaded accessor values, and expandable relations with drill-down navigation and breadcrumb trail - **Relationship graph** — interactive force-directed SVG graph of all model relationships Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require --dev onelearningcommunity/laravel-model-explorer ``` The package auto-registers via Laravel's package discovery — no additional setup required. Usage ----- [](#usage) Visit `/_model-explorer` in your application. In local environments, access is granted by default. Authorization ------------- [](#authorization) Access is controlled by the `viewModelExplorer` gate, which defaults to allowing access in `local` environments only. Override it in your `AuthServiceProvider` to control access elsewhere: ``` Gate::define('viewModelExplorer', function (User $user): bool { return $user->isAdmin(); }); ``` To disable the explorer entirely regardless of the gate, set the environment variable: ``` MODEL_EXPLORER_ENABLED=false ``` Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) Publish the config file to customise behaviour: ``` php artisan vendor:publish --tag="model-explorer-config" ``` ``` return [ // Set to false to disable entirely (e.g. force off in production regardless of gate) 'enabled' => env('MODEL_EXPLORER_ENABLED', true), // URL prefix for all Model Explorer routes 'path' => env('MODEL_EXPLORER_PATH', '_model-explorer'), // Middleware applied to all routes ('web' is required) 'middleware' => ['web'], // Directories scanned for Eloquent models (add more for DDD layouts, packages, etc.) // Keys are the root namespace, values are absolute directory paths. 'model_paths' => [ 'App' => app_path(), // 'Domain\\Billing' => base_path('src/Billing'), ], // Traits whose FQN begins with these prefixes will be hidden in the UI 'excluded_trait_prefixes' => [ 'Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Concerns\\', 'Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\HasCollection', 'Illuminate\Support\Traits\\', ], ]; ``` Security -------- [](#security) Laravel Model Explorer is intended for development use. The `viewModelExplorer` gate should prevent access in production environments. All record reads are wrapped in a rolled-back transaction with `Model::withoutEvents()` to prevent accidental writes from observers or model events. Note that non-database side effects from accessor methods (HTTP calls, cache writes, queue pushes) are **not** prevented.
