Thank you so much! you're so inspiring with not just going and using the functions we got from the framework, but to actually look them! I managed to deconstruct the Str::random function by myself, all thanks to you! I've never thought I'd go to source code and try understand what is going on there. You're are even more then a teacher, You're a mentor!

[@codewithdary]

Yessir! Learning Laravel is relatively easy, understanding everything in Laravel is something else.

[@melogian0816]

@ 6:00 PostFactory.php line 16. You don't need to add the entire path to the Post Model. You already declared a "use App\Model\Post" to resolve to that particular namespace. In this case "Post::class;" works fine.

[@RafaleJCW]

Exactly

[@codewithdary]

Thanks buddy :)

[@CODINGVENTURE]

Damn, I’ve gone through so many tutorials but your tutorials are so good

[@codewithdary]

Thank you so much buddy :)

Thank you so much you save my time

Happy to help Nacer :)

Loved it.

[@codewithdary]

Thank you Harizon!

[@josuebarros-desenvolvedorw2490]

Wonderful course! Will you teach us more advanced concepts like: Livewire, Jetstream, Sanctum, Passport, InertiaJS and AlpineJS?

[@codewithdary]

That's the plan!

[@sulaimanmisri9570]

In my case, when I use $model = \App\Models\Post::class, it will make the tinker error. So I just leave the path and use the default, which is Post::class; Then everything is run smoothly

[@codewithdary]

Thanks for sharing Sulaiman!!

Hi Dary, Thanks a lot for the tutorials How do it on windows ? 1:49 Im trying to highlight and click ctrl and left click but it doesnt work.

[@codewithdary]

Edit your settings.json (Hit F1, type Settings then Open Default Settings (JSON)) and adapt your configuration : Use : "editor.multiCursorModifier": "alt", To have Option+click as command to go to definition.

[@relaxingmusicandsceneryfor5816]

​ @Code With Dary hi dary, it's already set on default settings (json). any idea why it's still not working ? i am using windows. when i try to highlight for example the factory and hold alt+ left click nothing happens.

[@mrs1mplee07]

When I use >>\App\Models\Post::factory(2)->create(); The system notifies that Error Class 'Database\Factories\Post' not found. What's wrong ??

[@codewithdary]

If you have recently created the PostFactory class or made any changes to it, make sure to run the following command to regenerate the autoloader: composer dump-autoload

[@samnangmethiny2405]

how do i click on Factory to see its properties? I use window, I tried hovering and click ctrl but it did not work

[@brokersaddatv]

Hi. Can we install phpmyadmin and use it with laravel ?

[@pandapushok]

Yes, you can use XAMPP or OpenServer or any other environment to run your DB. Just make sure to set up your .env DB configuration accordingly.

[@KHKH-wy4yj]

Thank you, Dary, It is really helpful for those who are beginners or refresher. It will be more interesting if you could add some advanced stuff also like [ 'multi auth', 'localisation', 'server driven app' ] with laravel

[@codewithdary]

We will get there! :)

[@kito2266]

can we do logic in factory or seeder?

[@codewithdary]

Well technically no, depends on what you understand as logic?

can you helep me : Trait 'Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory' not found

[@codewithdary]

not found meaning that class or trait is not in your project. can you check it in vendor folder with path Laravel > Framework > src > Illuminate > Database > Eloquent > Factories ? if in those folder you not have that Trait class, try to composer dump-autoload or maybe you need re-install your Laravel project.

[@Rodrigo-nx4fg]

Instead of: \App\Models\Post::factory()->count(2)->create(); You can type: \App\Models\Post::factory(2)->create();

Thank you for sharing :)

How can I get deployed to show my client before finishing up? Some clients are very anxious, and want to follow the development steps

[@OnlyJavascript]

It's all about in-depth Laravel tuts itself. Anything more will be planned accordingly by our guru ji.

[@codewithdary]

I'll show you at the end of this course how we could deploy Laravel projects. Any recommendations of hosting sites? I think I might go with Bluehost.

[@josuebarros-desenvolvedorw2490]

@@codewithdary hmmm. Here in Brazil, Hostinger is very famous... I also heard a lot of Siteground, did you try it yet?

How to write this factory seeder on Laravel 8? public function run() { factory(Opportunity::class, 300)->create()->each(function ($opportunity){ $opportunity->detail()->save(factory(OpportunityDetail::class)->make()); }); }

Why i can't find factory in laravel?

'title' => $this->faker->title(), generates titles such as Dr, Miss, Mr., Prof. If you don't want any duplication on the post, amend the following lines: 'title' => $this->faker->sentence(),
