Same as Artisan commands

With this CLI, you will have access to all artisan commands you are familiar on Laravel.

You can create controller just like you do with php artisan

packr make:controller controller_name

Explore all commands, just run packr on your command line.

Smart Clone

With packr clone command you can do 3 steps in just one.

packr clone {repositoryname}

This not only clone repository but also install composer and if that repository type is project, then it will generate key for project also.

Specify directory to clone

Just like git, you can clone repository to any directory, just give --dir= option for above command

packr clone {repositoryname} --dir={custom_directory_name}

Specify branch to clone

Just like git, you can clone any branch of given repository.

packr clone {repositoryname} --branch={branch_name}

Above command will create various files like

• Model with relationships
• Controller with all crud functions
• Routes based on web or api file
• factory

This not only clone repository but also install composer and if that repository type is project, then it will generate key for project also.

CRUD Generator

step 1

First we need to create a json structure for our migration of any model/table
To do so run this command

packr crud:json {exactModelName}

step 2

Now you have json file, you can describe how your migration/schema is going to look.
After giving all details you can now run command to actually create full crud for the model

packr crud:make {relativePathOfThatJsonFile}

Todo

• [ ] Add resource in controller for CRUD maker
