How To Create Database Seeder In Laravel 10

Hi Developers,

Lets see how to create a database seeder in laravel 10. It is more use full in Admin related projects where the register page is not required but still we need admin details for the login the how its done . In this case we can use laravel Seeders for adding data in the database without any register page to add details . Lets see how its done.

All the Seeder files generated in laravel framwork are under the database/seeders folder . By default Seeder class contains only the run() method and when the Seeder class is called the run() method will be executed. We can use Query builders or Eloquent model factories to store data in database through the run() method.

php artisan make:seeder AdminSeeder

Create AdminSeeder using above command and edit the file

database/seeders/AdminUserSeeder.php

<?php
  
namespace Database\Seeders;
  
use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\WithoutModelEvents;
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use App\Models\User;
  
class AdminSeeder extends Seeder
{
    /**
     * Run the database seeds.
     */
    public function run(): void
    {
        User::create([
            'name' => 'ITSolutionsGuides',
            'email' => 'itsolutionsguides@gmail.com',
            'password' => bcrypt('123456789'),
        ]);
    }
}

Lets Run the AdminSeeder By using the following command

php artisan db:seed --class=AdminSeeder

Let's Register the AdminSeeder in the DatabaseSeeder

database/seeders/DatabaseSeeder.php

<?php
  
namespace Database\Seeders;
  
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
  
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
    /**
     * Seed the application's database.
     */
    public function run(): void
    {
        $this->call(AdminSeeder::class);
    }
}

The Following Command will run all the Seeder files registered in DatabaseSeeder

php artisan db:seed
