#214
In Part-214 of the Laravel E-commerce series, we will start working on Exchange Order functionality like Amazon.
In this video, we will create an exchange_requests table with Migration and will add a few entries with Seeder commands.
We will also create a model for the exchange_requests table.
1) Create exchange_requests table:-
First of all, we will create an exchange_requests table with migration. Create migration file with name create_exchange_requests_table for creating exchange_requests table with below columns:-
id, order_id, user_id, product_size, required_size, product_code, exchange_reason, exchange_status, comment, created_at, updated_at
So, we will run the below artisan command to create a migration file for exchange_requests:-
php artisan make:migration create_exchange_requests_table
Open the create_exchange_requests_table migration file and add all required columns mentioned earlier.
Now, we will run below artisan command to create an exchange_requests table with required columns:-
php artisan migrate
2) Create ExchangeRequest model:-
Create an ExchangeRequest model by running the below command:-
php artisan make:model ExchangeRequest
Now, We will create a Seeding for exchange_requests table to insert dummy exchange requests.
3) Writing Seeder / Create ExchangeRequestTableSeeder file :-
Now, we will generate Seeder and create an ExchangeRequestTableSeeder file where we will add records for the exchange_requests table.
Run below artisan command to generate Seeder and create ExchangeRequestTableSeeder file:-
php artisan make:seeder ExchangeRequestTableSeeder
The above command will create ExchangeRequestTableSeeder.php file at \database\seeds\
Now open the ExchangeRequestTableSeeder file and add a query for adding dummy exchange requests.
4) Update DatabaseSeeder.php file:-
Now update DatabaseSeeder.php file located at database/seeds/ to add ExchangeRequestTableSeeder class as shown in video.
5) Run below commands:-
Now run the below commands that will finally insert records into the exchange_requests table.
composer dump-autoload (if required)
php artisan db:seed
In the next video, we will update the user order detail page to show the exchange link.
