Laravel Migator

A package that will allow developers to interactively generate schema migrations for a laravel application. It takes into account the existing entity/fields based on the available data in the database.

This package will ask the developer interactively for the following:

• model
• table (default: derived from laravel model naming convention)
• fields (repeatedly)
  • name
  • type
    • id
    • uuid
    • type
    • boolean
    • text
    • date
    • datetime
    • json
    • id
    • integer
  • default value (#11)
  • index (#12)
  • foreign keys (#13)
• relations to other entities (#9)

It will then ask for writing this into a migration file. It creates and writes a new migration file to the default laravel migration path.

Installation

This package can be installed using composer:

composer require wearesynetic/laravel-migator --dev

Usage

php artisan make:migator

This will start the migator process.

Roadmap

• Derive table name default from the given model
• Implement validation of preexisting columns / definitions
• Implement CLI usage for 'model'-specific use case (#5)
• Implement CLI usage for 'other' use case (#6)
• Implement relation mapping / autocomplete (#9)
• Optionally specify the stub to be used for the migration (#10)
