Background

I create laravel applications very often. Therefore I want to increase my productivity by auto generating the important, but boring aspects of my Laravel appz. The code is a bit messy, but I strive to make improvements. I have tested it on existing medium to large applications without any problems

What this package will generate (via php artisan)

• Models with belongsTo belongsToMany and hasMany relations (Optionally with policies and observers). These are generated using your current connection.
• Factories with belongsTo relations and Faker . These are generated using your existing models.
• Repositories (Repository pattern). These are generated using your existing models.
• Controllers with Routes and Requests (Optionally with the usage of policies).
• Unit tests. These are generated from your defined routes at api.php

okkk Show me some generated code, cowboy!

Here is an example of what will be generated
