Add inheritance in postgresql tables

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

[PHP](https://php.net) **5.4+** and [Laravel](https://laravel.com) **5.2+** are required.

For Laravel Versions **5.2.**\* & **5.3.**\*, run the following command to install this package via composer

```
composer require "rishi-ramawat/laravel-postgresql-inherit ~2.1.0"
```

For Laravel Versions **5.4+**, run the following command to install this package via composer

```
composer require "rishi-ramawat/laravel-postgresql-inherit ~2.2"
```

Once PostgreSQL Schema is installed, you need to register the service provider. Open up `config/app.php` and add the following to the `providers` array.

```
RishiRamawat\PostgresSchema\PostgresqlSchemaServiceProvider::class,
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

In migration file when using a postgresql database, you can use the new method `inherits()`:

```
Schema::create('cities', function(Blueprint $table) {
  $table->increments('id');
  $table->string('name');
  $table->double('population');
  $table->integer('altitude')->comment('In Feet');
});

Schema::create('capitals', function(Blueprint $table) {
    $table->string('state');
    // Make capitals table inherits all the columns of its parent table, cities
    $table->inherits('cities');
});
```
