CRUD Admin Generator
===================

What is CRUD Admin Generator?
-----------------------------

**CRUD Admin Generator** ([http://crud-admin-generator.com][1]) is a tool to **generate a complete backend from a MySql database** where you can create, read, update and delete records in a database.

**The backend is generated in seconds** without configuration files where there is a lot of *"magic"* and is very difficult to adapt to your needs.

**The generated code is fully customizable and extensible.**

It has been programmed with the Silex framework, so the resulting code is PHP.

Installation
------------

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/jonseg/crud-admin-generator.git admingenerator

cd admingenerator

Download composer:

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php

Install vendors:

php composer.phar install

You need point the document root of your virtual host to /path_to/admingenerator/web

This is an example of VirtualHost:


DocumentRoot /path_to/admingenerator/web
DirectoryIndex index.php

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order Allow,Deny
Allow from all
AllowOverride all

php_admin_flag engine on
php_admin_flag safe_mode off
php_admin_value open_basedir none




You can customize the url using the .htaccess file, maybe this will help you:

Generate CRUD backend
---------------------

Edit the file /path_to/admingenerator/src/app.php and set your database conection data:

$app->register(new Silex\Provider\DoctrineServiceProvider(), array(
'dbs.options' => array(
'db' => array(
'driver' => 'pdo_mysql',
'dbname' => 'DATABASE_NAME',
'host' => 'localhost',
'user' => 'DATABASE_USER',
'password' => 'DATABASE_PASS',
'charset' => 'utf8',
),
)
));

You need to set the url of the resources folder.

Change this line:

$app['asset_path'] = '/resources';

For the url of your project, for example:

$app['asset_path'] = 'http://domain.com/crudadmin/resources';

Now, execute the command that will generate the CRUD backend:

php console generate:admin

**This is it!** Now access with your favorite web browser.

The command generates one menu section for each database table. **Now will be much easier to list, create, edit and delete rows!**

Customize the result
--------------------

The generated code is fully configurable and editable, you just have to edit the corresponding files.

- The **controller** you can find it in **/web/controllers/TABLE_NAME/index.php**
- The **views** are in **/web/views/TABLE_NAME**

It has generated a folder for each database table.
