FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

OI Laravel Seeds

A Laravel package to export and import seeders to/from JSON files with intelligent dependency management.

Features

JSON Export/Import: Round-trip database data through portable, version-controllable JSON files
Idempotent Imports: Rows are upserted by a unique key, so re-running never duplicates data
Dependency Resolution: Seeders declare dependencies, ordered automatically via topological sort
Relations: Export models together with their relations using --with-relations
Multiple Models: Export/import several models from a single seeder
Generator Command: Scaffold exportable seeders with one artisan command
Configurable: Storage paths, default unique key, auto-discovery, and JSON encoding options

How It Works

Export: The package scans your seeders for those using the ExportableSeeder trait
Dependencies: It resolves dependencies using a topological sort to ensure correct order
Export Data: Each seeder exports its model data to a JSON file in the configured storage path
Import: When importing, dependencies are processed first, then data is upserted using updateOrCreate

Requirements

PHP 8.2+
Laravel 11.0+ or 12.0+

Installation

Install the package via composer:

The package auto-discovers and registers its service provider — no manual registration required.

Local Development

For local development inside the monorepo, add a path repository to your main project's composer.json:

Publish the seeder stubs (optional):

Usage

Creating an Exportable Seeder

Generate a new exportable seeder using the artisan command:

Options:

--model or -m: The model class to use for this seeder
--unique-by or -u: The unique column(s) for upsert operations (default: id)
--json-filename or -j: The JSON filename for export/import

This will create a seeder class like:

Defining Dependencies

If your seeder depends on other seeders, specify them in the $dependencies property:

Exporting Relations

To export models with their relations, define them in the $exportRelations property:

Then use the --with-relations flag when exporting:

Exporting Data

Export all exportable seeders:

Export a specific seeder:

Importing Data

Import all exportable seeders:

Import a specific seeder:

Customizing Exported Attributes

Override the getExportableAttributes method in your seeder to customize which attributes are exported:

Multiple Models per Seeder

You can export/import multiple models in a single seeder by using arrays:

Custom Unique Keys

Use multiple columns for unique constraints:

Configuration

The configuration file config/oi-laravel-seeds.php allows you to customize:

storage_path: Base storage path for JSON files (default: app/private/seeders)
default_unique_by: Default column for upsert operations (default: id)
auto_discover: Auto-discover exportable seeders (default: true)
json_options: JSON encoding options (default: JSON_PRETTY_PRINT | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE)

By default, JSON files are stored in storage/app/private/seeders/. You can change this:
