README

This tool allows you to create a fully functional component for Laravel using its Jetstream dashboard by one line. Watch this video to see how you can install it and how it works.

Requirements

Automs requires 3 main packages in order to work properly

1. Laravel framework ^8
2. laravel jetstream ^2
3. livewire ^2

Installation

Via Composer

$ composer require "ahmadyousefdev/automs" --dev

We included Jetstream and livewire in the composer installer

you have to complete the installation of these two packages by running these commands

php artisan jetstream:install livewire
npm install
npm run dev
php artisan migrate
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=jetstream-views

to learn more about Jetstream and Livewire and how to install them properly please go to this link.

Usage

basically, you will write the desired model name and this package will generate it by running this command

php artisan automs:create modelName

After that you can check the migration file and if everything is alright you should run

php artisan migrate

Example

Let's create a component named Article, we will do that by just writing this command

php artisan automs:create article

if we run this command, the package will generate the next files

app/Models/Article.php
app/Http/Controllers/ArticleController.php
database/migrations/timestamp_create_articles_table.php
resources/views/articles/index.blade.php
resources/views/articles/create.blade.php
resources/views/articles/show.blade.php
resources/views/articles/edit.blade.php

and it will add those routes to routes/web.php :

use App\Http\Controllers\ArticleController;
Route::group(['prefix' => 'articles', 'middleware' => ['auth']], function () {
    Route::get('/', [ArticleController::class, 'index'])->name('articles.index');
    Route::get('/create', [ArticleController::class, 'create'])->name('articles.create');
    Route::post('/submit',[ArticleController::class, 'store'])->name('articles.store');
    Route::get('/id_{id}', [ArticleController::class, 'show'])->name('articles.show');
    Route::get('/id_{id}/edit',[ArticleController::class, 'edit'])->name('articles.edit');
    Route::put('/id_{id}/update',[ArticleController::class, 'update'])->name('articles.update');
    Route::put('/id_{id}/destroy',[ArticleController::class, 'destroy'])->name('articles.destroy');
});

and will add a navigation link for this model to resources/views/navigation-menu.blade.php

Those files will either be filled with data or they will have the minimal look, depending on the name of the article, please read How does it work section for more details

How does it work ?

This package have a set of built-in laravel component definitions that are connected to multiple names. When running the command, the package will search for the name of the written model in its component list. If it finds that name, it will generate its files. If it didn't find any component, it will generate the files but without the fillables and the migration rows.

A full list of the built-in components can be found inside this json file

Notes

if there is a file uploader in any component, it will use the default public disk as a storage. go to your config/filesystems.php to configure the storage, or if you are comfortable with the existing settings you can run php artisan storage:link to connect the public path to the storage path.

Influencer References

These two packages inspired us to make this package and they provide much more commands which makes them suitable for more complex applications. Sadly, they don't support Laravel 8 or Jetstream yet.
