Description

Laravel Auto is a package designed to automate CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) generation for Laravel applications, making it quick and efficient to scaffold models, controllers, views, and routes with a single command. It supports both web and API generation, allowing developers to focus on application logic rather than repetitive setup.

Motivation

The process of building CRUD operations is crucial for most applications but can be time-consuming and repetitive. Laravel Auto solves this by automating CRUD generation, ensuring consistency across projects and aligning with Laravel's best practices. This package is developed to help developers:

• Increase Productivity: Automatically generate essential parts of Laravel applications, saving time and effort on boilerplate code.
• Maintain Consistency: Standardize patterns across projects, reducing errors and improving maintainability.
• Adopt API-First Design: Easily set up API routes and controllers, supporting modern development practices.
• Empower All Developers: With a simple command, this package is accessible to beginners while being flexible enough for experienced developers.

Features

• Generates a Model with fillable attributes
• Generates a Controller with CRUD methods for web or API setup
• Creates Views (index, show, create, edit) for web routes
• Appends routes to web.php or api.php based on setup type

Installation

To install the Laravel Auto package, follow these steps:

1. Install the package using Composer:

   composer require tarsoft/laravel-auto

2. Publish the stubs (optional):

   php artisan vendor:publish --tag=tarsoft-stubs

Usage

Generating Web CRUD

To generate a CRUD structure for a model (e.g., Blog) with web controllers and views, run:

php artisan auto:crud Blog

This will create:

• Blog model (in app/Models/)
• BlogController (in app/Http/Controllers/)
• Views (index, show, create, edit) under resources/views/blogs/
• Web routes in routes/web.php

Generating API CRUD

For API-only routes and controllers, use the --api flag:

php artisan auto:crud Blog --api

This will create:

• Blog model (in app/Models/)
• BlogController (in app/Http/Controllers/API/)
• API routes in routes/api.php
