Here, i have come with some code to create laravel seeders and factories. For inserting data in our database for testing purpose.
Create Model Admin
php artisan make:model Admin -m
Now, open the admin migration file in database directory and table columns.
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;
use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Schema;
class CreateAdminsTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create( 'admins', function (Blueprint $table)
{
$table->increments( 'id' );
$table->string( 'name' );
$table->string( 'surname' );
$table->string( 'email' );
$table->string( 'password' );
$table->timestamps();
} );
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists( 'admins' );
}
}
To create table run
php artisan migrate
Create Factory in Laravel to create random number of records for testing. We will create factory AdminFactory.
php artisan make:factory AdminFactory
Inside the definition method set your database table columns.
<?php
namespace Database\Factories;
use App\Models\Admin;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class AdminFactory extends Factory
{
/**
* The name of the factory's corresponding model.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $model = Admin::class;
/**
* Define the model's default state.
*
* @return array
*/
public function definition()
{
return [
'name' => $this->faker->name,
'surname' => $this->faker->name,
'email' => $this->faker->unique()->safeEmail,
'password' => bcrypt('123456'), // password
];
}
}
Now, create seeder to run factory or database queries.
php artisan make:seeder AdminSeeder
Inside run method apply factory on Admin model.
namespace Database\Seeders;
use App\Models\Admin;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;
class AdminsSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* @return void
*/
public function run()
{
Admin::factory()
->count(50)
->create([
'surname' => 'Kumar',
]);
}
}
Now run the seeder class
php artisan db:seed --class=AdminSeeder
This will create 50 random records in table admins
