Seeder

Easy seeding database for Laravel Applications

Installation

Step 1: Install Through Composer

composer require codingphase/seeder

Step 2: Register Service Provider

Add your new provider to the providers array of config/app.php:

  'providers' => [
      // ...
      CodingPhase\Seeder\SeederServiceProvider::class,
      // ...
  ],

Publish config

php artisan vendor:publish  --provider="CodingPhase\Seeder\SeederServiceProvider"

Usage

Extend your seeders with ModelSeeder:

use CodingPhase\Seeder\ModelSeeder;

class UsersTableSeeder extends ModelSeeder
{
    ...
}

Implement run method:

/**
 * Run the database seeds.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function run
{
    //Example
    $users = $this->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
        $user->save();
    });
}

##API:

setAmount(int)

Default amount of seeding resources that are seeded are stored in config. If you want to seed another value of resources, you can.

$this->setAmount(30)->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
    $user->save();
});

setHeader(string)

Define header before progress bar in output (default is model namespace)

$this->setHeader("Awesome Users")->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
    $user->save();
});

setCompact(bool)

Default true. Define style of Progress Bar.

$this->setAmount(30)->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
    $user->save();
});

useData(array)

Set data that will be used to fill resources. It overrides model factory data.

$data = [    
    1 => [
        'name' => 'test',
        'email' => '[email protected]'
    ],    
    25 => [
        'name' => 'example'
        'email' => '[email protected]',
    ],
];

$this->useData($data)->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
    $user->save();
});

• first user will have name test and email [email protected]
• 25th user will have name example and email [email protected]

##Practical Examples

use CodingPhase\Seeder\ModelSeeder;

class UsersTableSeeder extends ModelSeeder
{
    /**
     * Run the database seeds.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function run
    {
        $adminsData = [
            1 => [
                'name' => 'test',
                'email' => '[email protected]',
                'password' => bcrypt('123456')
            ],
            4 => [
                'name' => 'test4',
                'email' => '[email protected]',
                'password' => bcrypt('654321')
            ],
        ];
        
        $admins = $this->useData($adminsData)
            ->setAmount(5)
            ->setHeader("Seeding Admins")
            ->setCompact(false)
            ->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
                $user->admin = 1;
                $user->save();
            });
        
        $users = $this->setHeader("Seeding Regular Users")
            ->seedModel(\App\User::class, function ($user) {
                $user->save();
            });
    }
}
