I'm new to Laravel.I'm trying to create database in Laravel. I tried in console with:

But it's giving 'command not found'. What should I install or how to create database?

回答1:

First you have to set database name,username and password in database.php in config folder.it look like

'connections' => [

        'sqlite' => [
            'driver'   => 'sqlite',
            'database' => storage_path('database.sqlite'),
            'prefix'   => '',
        ],

        'mysql' => [
            'driver'    => 'mysql',
            'host'      => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
            'database'  => env('DB_DATABASE', 'news'),
            'username'  => env('DB_USERNAME', 'root'),
            'password'  => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
            'charset'   => 'utf8',
            'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
            'prefix'    => '',
            'strict'    => false,
        ],

        'pgsql' => [
            'driver'   => 'pgsql',
            'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
            'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
            'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
            'charset'  => 'utf8',
            'prefix'   => '',
            'schema'   => 'public',
        ],

        'sqlsrv' => [
            'driver'   => 'sqlsrv',
            'host'     => env('DB_HOST', 'localhost'),
            'database' => env('DB_DATABASE', 'forge'),
            'username' => env('DB_USERNAME', 'forge'),
            'password' => env('DB_PASSWORD', ''),
            'charset'  => 'utf8',
            'prefix'   => '',
        ],

    ],

if you are using xampp then right click on your project folder and click on use composer here

then run following command

 php artisan migrate:install

and you can create table like

php artisan make:migration create_users_table

Migration Structure

A migration class contains two methods: up and down. The up method is used to add new tables, columns, or indexes to your database, while the down method should simply reverse the operations performed by the up method.

Within both of these methods you may use the Laravel schema builder to expressively create and modify tables. To learn about all of the methods available on the Schema builder, check out its documentation. For example, let's look at a sample migration that creates a flights table:

<?php

use Illuminate\Database\Schema\Blueprint;
use Illuminate\Database\Migrations\Migration;

class CreateFlightsTable extends Migration
{
    /**
     * Run the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function up()
    {
        Schema::create('flights', function (Blueprint $table) {
            $table->increments('id');
            $table->string('name');
            $table->string('airline');
            $table->timestamps();
        });
    }

    /**
     * Reverse the migrations.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function down()
    {
        Schema::drop('flights');
    }
}

To know all artisan command run following command

php artisan

for more read following document http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/migrations

my working example:

create new artisan command:

php artisan make:command mysql

the content of App\Console\Commands\mysql.php :

namespace App\Console\Commands;

use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\DB;

class mysql extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'mysql:createdb {name?}';

    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Create a new mysql database schema based on the database config file';

    /**
     * Create a new command instance.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function __construct()
    {
        parent::__construct();
    }

    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        $schemaName = $this->argument('name') ?: config("database.connections.mysql.database");
        $charset = config("database.connections.mysql.charset",'utf8mb4');
        $collation = config("database.connections.mysql.collation",'utf8mb4_unicode_ci');

        config(["database.connections.mysql.database" => null]);

        $query = "CREATE DATABASE IF NOT EXISTS $schemaName CHARACTER SET $charset COLLATE $collation;";

        DB::statement($query);

        config(["database.connections.mysql.database" => $schemaName]);

    }
}

then run: (schema_name is optionally)

php artisan mysql:createdb schema_name

Database setup in Laravel

open .env file on root

example :-

  DB_CONNECTION=mysql
  DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
  DB_PORT=3306
  DB_DATABASE=dbname
  DB_USERNAME=root
  DB_PASSWORD=password

Now run command

  php artisan migrate:install
  php artisan make:migration users // for creating new table

回答4:

If you want to create model with artisan do it this way:

php artisan make:model ModelName

回答5:

I just created an interesting Laravel package that has some handy set of artisan commands like create or drop database, dump database or load from .sql dump, or to see which fields (and field types) are present in your models ...
