laravel-model-builder

Laravel Model Builder, a poor attempt to reverse engineer a MySQL database to Laravel models.

Usage

Add the following to your composer.json:

"require": {
    "jimbolino/laravel-model-builder" : "dev-master"
}, 

Add to your routes.php:

Route::get('/generate/models', '\\Jimbolino\\Laravel\\ModelBuilder\\ModelGenerator5@start');

Run the url, and your models will be created in the storage\models folder so you have to manually copy them to your real models folder. Or better, use a tool like beyond compare to update your current models.

Known Issues

• Relation to itself (parent_id, child_id etc) will result in duplicate function names
• Multiple foreign keys between tables will also not work
• correct detection of $timestamps value
