Options #

CSS Framework: Bootstrap 5, and TailwindCSS. #

You can choose between Bootstrap 5 and Tailwind CSS or you can use your own CSS framework. By default, Bootstrap 5 is used when nothing is specified.

# Create CRUD for authors table using Tailwind CSS
$ php artisan crud:generate authors --css=tailwind

# Shortcut for Tailwind CSS
$ php artisan crud:generate authors -t

# Create CRUD for authors table using layout 'layouts/admin.blade.php'
$ php artisan crud:generate authors --layout=admin
$ php artisan crud:generate authors --section=mysection

Prefix #

You can add a route prefix for the generated CRUD by passing a --prefix option.

# Create CRUD for authors table using Tailwind CSS
$ php artisan crud:generate authors --prefix=admin

This will change the route from /authors to /admin/authors in all the generated files.

Index templates #

You can choose between 3 ready-made index templates: table, cards and chat. By default, the table template is used.

# Create CRUD for authors table using cards template
$ php artisan crud:generate authors -i cards

# Create CRUD for authors table using chat template
$ php artisan crud:generate authors -i chat

Please see the index page here for screenshots.

Single create and edit form #

In some cases, you may want to use a single form for both creating and editing a resource. You can do that by passing --merge-forms option.

# Create CRUD for authors table using a single form
$ php artisan crud:generate authors --merge-forms

This will generate a single view file called create-edit.blade.php and update the controller code accordingly so that it can be used for both creating and editing a resource.

Layout and section names #

By default, the generated views use layouts/app.blade.php for layout and content for section name. You can change these default names by passing your own layout and section names.
