Usage

Basic Usage

Generate a complete CRUD module:

php artisan crud:make Post --fields="title:string,content:text,published:boolean"

This generates:

• app/Models/Post.php
• database/migrations/create_posts_table.php
• app/Http/Controllers/PostController.php
• app/Http/Requests/Post/StorePostRequest.php
• app/Http/Requests/Post/UpdatePostRequest.php
• resources/views/posts/ (index, create, edit, show)
• Route definitions in routes/web_generated.php

Advanced Features

With Media Library Support

php artisan crud:make Product --fields="name:string,description:text,image:file,price:integer" --with-media

Translatable Fields

php artisan crud:make Article --fields="title:string,content:text,slug:string" --translatable

With Relationships

php artisan crud:make Post --fields="title:string,content:text" --relationships="belongsTo:User,hasMany:Comment"

API Generation

php artisan crud:make Product --fields="name:string,price:integer" --api

This generates API controllers and resources instead of web views.

php artisan crud:make BlogPost --fields="title:string,slug:string,content:text,excerpt:text:nullable,featured_image:file,published:boolean,published_at:date:nullable" --with-media --translatable --relationships="belongsTo:User,belongsTo:Category,hasMany:Comment" --force

Available Field Types

• string - VARCHAR field
• text - TEXT field
• integer - INTEGER field
• boolean - BOOLEAN field
• date - DATE field
• email - VARCHAR with email validation
• file - File upload field (works with --with-media)

Add :nullable to make fields optional:

--fields="name:string,description:text:nullable,age:integer:nullable"
