# Laravel 5 Model Factory Generator

This package offers a lazy way to create a new model factory files, since Laravel (< 5.5) have no Artisan command to generate it.

## Installation

First, install this package via the Composer package manager:

```

composer require rymanalu/factory-generator

```

Next, you should add the `FactoryGeneratorServiceProvider` to the `providers` array of your `config/app.php` configuration file:

```php

Rymanalu\FactoryGenerator\FactoryGeneratorServiceProvider::class,

```

Now, you should be able to generate a new model factory file by executing `php artisan make:factory` command.

## Usage

`php artisan make:factory` accept one argument: the model class name with the namespace. Make sure the model is already exists before executing this command.

Example:

```

php artisan make:factory "App\Post"

```

The command will generate a file named `PostFactory.php` in `/path/to/your-laravel-project/database/factories` directory:

```php

define(Post::class, function (Faker $faker) {

    //

});

```

This command also using the fillable array of the model and pair all of fillable values to `$faker->word` as default (you can change it to the proper [Faker](https://github.com/fzaninotto/Faker) Formatters or other value later) in the generated model factory.

For example, if the `App\Post` has fillable array like this:

```php

define(Post::class, function (Faker $faker) {

    return [

        'text' => $faker->word,

    ];

});

```
