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.

Yii2 Extension for Factory Muffin

Total Downloads

I found fixtures really tiring and cumbersome to maintain with Yii2 models. So, I decided to write this extension that basically wraps FactoryMuffin and attaches factory definitions to any model that you want to seed in the database. I found it extremely helpful for seeding databases dynamically which is especially useful when writing tests. If you've used FactoryGirl or FactoryMuffin before, this is the same concept tailored for the Yii2 framework. I tried to keep things as tidy as possible. Contributions are more than welcome!

Installing

PHP 5.5+ and Composer are required.

In your composer.json, simply add these packages to your "require" section

Example Usage

All the FactoryMuffin API calls are accessible from the $fm instance above.

Alternative In-Model Pattern (Optional)

This pattern is a convenience that you DO NOT HAVE TO use in your project. But I found really useful since a lot of our model definitions for tests and fake data are heavily coupled with our application models.

First, we need to implement FactoryInterface interfaces to our models.

Now that we have our models, we can now start seeding our database from within our tests
