Laravel Seed Extender
=====================

[](#laravel-seed-extender)

A highly opinioned way to work with the laravel seeder.

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

[](#installation)

Require the package using composer:

```
composer require touhidurabir/laravel-seed-extender
```

WHY ?
-----

[](#why-)

As mentioned, this is a highly opinioned way to work with seeder. We have popular **Faker** library and **Model Factories** to seed model table and that seems like the obious choice . But sometimes in production or even in the development purpose we need real life data to seed model table and for that purpose need seeder classes .

Now this package does not introduce any new mechanism of the seeding using the seeder classes but just add some ability to manupulate the each seeder class as per need . Basically it add some extar feature/ability to the seeder class.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To generate a new seeder class of this package, run the following command

```
php artisan make:extend-seeder SeederClassName --table=table_name
```

That will generate an seeder new seeder class at the **/database/seeders** location . for example , a basic user seeder class will look like this

```
