Create new web projects really fast. By giving Pipe Dream a minimum of input in form of a sketch/entity list it will predict your application schema and feed it into a set of pipes. These pipes will generate all the files needed to get started really quick.

Installation

Install Pipe Dream

composer require --dev pipe-dream/laravel-create

Install the Laravel File Factory

npm install --dev @pipe-dream/laravel-file-factory

More File Factories can be found here

Build Pipe Dream

php artisan pipedream:build

Thats it, now open your browser and go to /pipe-dream and start designing.

Usage

If you havent already, watch the 2 minute video.

• List your models and tables in the sketch window. Note the schema is created in real-time and is being displayed on the right side of the screen.

• Here are some pointers on the sketch syntax

// use PascalCase for models
Garage
location
capacity

// Separate your entities into chunks
Car
color
user_id // foreign key

// use snake_case model1_model2 to setup a ManyToMany relationship
car_garage 

// use button to add a default user system
User 
name
email
email_verified_at
password
remember_token

// use snake_case to create a table
password_resets
email
token

• Review the list of files that are going to be created.

• Commit the files to disk.

• You are now ready to migrate and seed. Go ahead and check out the API (at /api), that contains placeholder values
