  • You can also pass in a list of tables using comma separated values.
• --all
  • If this flag is present, then the table command will be ignored.
  • This will generate a model for all tables found in your database.
  • please note that this command will only ignore the migrations table and no model will be generate for it
• --connection=
  • by default if this option is omitted then the generate will use the default connection found in config/database.php
  • To specify a connection ensure that it exists in your config/database.php first.
• --folder=
  • by default all models are store in your app/ directory. If you wish to store them in another place you can provide the relative path from your base laravel application.
