Running
-------

[](#running)

Once dependencies are installed, run with:

```
php artisan serve

```
php artisan serve --port=6060
```

```
php artisan crudmaker:new Post --api --ui=bootstrap --migration --schema="id:increments,name:string,author:string" --relationships="belongsToMany|\App\Models\Tag|tags"
```

You can use the following options for the above command:

```
php artisan crudmaker:new ModelName
{--api} # if you want to generate REST api routes, controllers and middleware
{--ui=bootstrap|semantic} # css style
{--serviceOnly} # if you only want service classes generated
{--withFacade} # fuck knows
{--withoutViews}  # don't generate view files
{--migration} # generate a migration script
{--schema} # specify the schema data i.e. db columns
{--relationships} # generate relationships
```

You can view the full documentation for this [here](https://docs.grafite.ca/others/crud/)

**Clear general cache:**`php artisan cache:clear`

If you are using `php artisan serve` to run your application then you'll need to restart it if you've made changes in any of the cached config files.
