Version 2.0.0 is released

[krlove]

Dear all,

Version 2.0.0 is released. It contains several improvements, new features and breaking changes, which I'd like to guide you through.

Minimum supported versions - Laravel 9 and PHP 8.0.

One of the most requested features was generating models from all tables. Now it is possible with krlove:generate:models command. This command lists all tables, transforms their names into class names (e.g. users -> User) and generates Eloquent models for them. See more details in the README.

backup option is removed, no-backup which defaults to false has been added instead. That means backup is enabled by default for both commands. If you want to disable it, pass --no-backup as a command option, or override it globally in your config/eloquent_model_generator.php file:

return [
    'no_backup' => true,
];

The structure on config file has been flattened.
Before:

return [
    'model_defaults' => [
        'namespace' => 'App\MyModels',
        'base_class_name' => 'App\MyModels\MyBaseClass',
        'output_path' => '/var/www/html/app/my_models',
        'no_timestamps' => true,
        'date_format' => 'U',
        'connection' => 'secondary',
        'backup' => true,
    ],
    'db_types' => [
        'enum' => 'string',
    ],
];

After:

return [
    'namespace' => 'App\MyModels',
    'base_class_name' => 'App\MyModels\MyBaseClass',
    'output_path' => '/var/www/html/app/my_models',
    'no_timestamps' => true,
    'date_format' => 'U',
    'connection' => 'secondary',
    'no_backup' => false,
    'db_types' => [
        'box' => 'string',
    ],
];

enum type cast has been included out of the box. It casts to string. You can always override it in your config file:

return [
    'db_types' => [
        'enum' => 'integer',
    ],
];

Generic code improvements and simplifications have been done:

• added typings to all places where it was possible
• used constructor property promotion
• got rid/simplified few key classes
• change visibility of certain methods/properties, normally from protected to private

Last but not least, (finally!) added tests covering key functionality.

If you have troubles upgrading from version 1x to 2x, feel free to create an issue or drop a comment under this discussion.

Best of luck!

Hi guy!
I try to do install your packet and get following error:

**Problem 1
- Root composer.json requires krlove/eloquent-model-generator ^2.0 -> satisfiable by krlove/eloquent-model-generator[2.0].
- krlove/eloquent-model-generator 2.0 requires illuminate/database ^9.0 -> found illuminate/database[v9.0.0-beta.1, ..., 9.x-dev] but these were not loaded, likely because it conflicts with another require.
**

thanks for your attention

same problem here

That's because the package is not compatible with Laravel v10... as this version requires v9.0 of "illuminate/database", and the latest Laravel framework requires v10 of "illuminate/database". So only solution unfortunately for now is to downgrade Laravel to v9 in order to use this package, if necessary.

Does this fix the issue where:

php artisan krlove:generate:model Models/First/Second/Third --table-name=first_second_third

Generates:

<?php

namespace App;

class Models/First/Second/Third extends Model {

instead of

<?php

namespace App\Models\First\Second;

class Third extends Model {

and/or also fails if the folder app\Models\First\Second does not already exist?
