iseed

Adds Laravel 9 support.

Adds PHP8 support.

This release aims to add a native laravel 8 support. To do this the following changes were made:

1. Add namespace Database\Seeders; namespace to the seed stub.
2. Change config to point to the default database/seeders/ directory over the laravel 7 database/seeds
3. Change the Stubs directory to stubs

Since some breaking changes were introduced, the version is bumped to a major release.

Added support for Laravel 8

Added Laravel 7.0 support

• Added Laravel 6.0 support
• Updated the documentation on how to use the orderby and direction parameters

Added chunksize optional parameter which defines the size of data chunks for each insert query. Helps with issue described in https://github.com/orangehill/iseed/issues/4#issuecomment-380324859

Optionally specify a prefix or suffix for the Seeder class name and file name. This is useful if you want to create an additional seed for a table that has an existing seed without overwriting the existing one.

In order to support L55, the IseedCommand now has a handle() method for Laravel v5.5 and a fire() method for older Laravel versions.

By using --orderby and --direction parameters you can now set the column which will be used for results ordering, and the direction to order by (ASC/DESC). This works great when you want to limit the number of exported database entries using the --max parameter.

By using --noindex the seed can be generated as a non-indexed array. The use case for this feature is when you need to merge two seed files.

• Feature: Implemented a composer dump-autoload feature
• Feature: Added the exclude columns functionality
• Fix: iSeed is now using PHP_EOL instead of \r\n for line endings
• Fix: Added a ::class notation to improve IDE navigation
• Fix: Formated main class files as per PSR-2 standards

Refactored code so that the package works with Laravel 5. If you want to use iSeed with Laravel 4, please use iSeed version 1.1.

Specify maximum numer of rows to be exported.
Multiple tables export.

Fixed a number of smaller issues.
