Modlify

Modlify generates stubs for Laravel-components using existing models. Modlify tries to figure out model-validation and factories based on the migrated table for the model.

Installation

Install via composer

composer require dialect/modlify

It is possible publish the views modlify uses to generate the stubs if custom modification is wanted.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Dialect\Modlify\ModlifyServiceProvider"

Usage

Modlify can currently generate:

php artisan modlify:controller - Generates Controller.

php artisan modlify:factory - Generates Factory.

php artisan modlify:policy - Generates Policy and adds it to AuthServiceProvider.php

php artisan modlify:route - Adds route to web.php

php artisan modlify:tests - Generates tests

php artisan modlify:views - Generates views

php artisan modlify:all Generates all of the components.

You can either specify a model, or use the --all parameter to make Modlify find all available models in the app directory. By default Modlify doesn't overwrite existing files, it is possible to force overwrites with the -force parameter
