    ]
}

php artisan crud:generate Posts --fields_from_file="/path/to/fields.json" --view-path=admin --controller-namespace=Admin --route-group=admin

Options:

Other commands (optional):

For controller:

php artisan crud:controller PostsController --crud-name=posts --model-name=Post --view-path="directory" --route-group=admin

Controller's Options:

For model:

php artisan crud:model Post --fillable="['title', 'body']"

For migration:

php artisan crud:migration posts --schema="title#string; body#text"

For view:

php artisan crud:view posts --fields="title#string; body#text" --view-path="directory" --route-group=admin

By default, the generator will attempt to append the crud route to your Route file. If you don't want the route added, you can use this option --route=no.

After creating all resources, run migrate command. If necessary, include the route for your crud as well.

php artisan migrate

If you chose not to add the crud route in automatically (see above), you will need to include the route manually.

Route::resource('posts', 'PostsController');
