> Generate Lucid Models from an existing database schema | ||
> Generate Lucid Models from an existing database | ||
👋 Hey there! This is still a work in progress | ||
[![npm-image]][npm-url] ![][typescript-image] [![license-image]][license-url] | ||
|
||
Whether you're looking to start a new AdonisJS project for an existing database or | ||
you've define your migrations and ran them, this package can help you get up and running by generating models to match your | ||
database schema! | ||
|
||
> Note that this likely won't be perfect, always be sure to double-check the files after they're generated. | ||
Here's how it works: | ||
|
||
1. It'll use AdonisJS to connect to your database | ||
2. Once connected, it collects your tables, columns, and foreign keys | ||
3. Then, it'll map out what your models should look like for the tables & columns | ||
4. Finally, it'll then use your foreign keys to work backwards and build out your relationships | ||
|
||
Here's what's required: | ||
|
||
1. Your tables, columns, and foreign keys must be defined in your database | ||
2. Your database must be well structured, deviations will cause anomolies in the generated relationships | ||
3. Your AdonisJS application must have its database connection defined | ||
|
||
## Installation | ||
|
||
You can easily install and configure via the Ace CLI's `add` command. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
node ace add @adocasts.com/generate-models | ||
``` | ||
|
||
##### Manual Install & Configure | ||
|
||
You can also manually install and configure if you'd prefer | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
npm install @adocasts.com/generate-models | ||
``` | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
node ace configure @adocasts.com/generate-models | ||
``` | ||
|
||
## Generate Models Command | ||
|
||
Right now we only offer one command, and that is the `generate:models` command. | ||
|
||
```shell | ||
node ace generate:models | ||
``` | ||
|
||
This will generate your models and plop them at the location defined within your `adonisrc.ts` file, which is `app/models` by default. | ||
If any of the models already exist in your project, those models will be skipped and will **not** be replaced. | ||
