I'm very new to Fuel, still learning stuff as I go but I'm confused by something.
In the tutorials and the slideshare and videos, you do something like this;
<code>
php oil g scaffold blog name:string
</code>
You create the structure in the terminal, but what happens if you already have a database table? I really don't want to be typing out my structure/schema long-handed in terminal.
Is it possible for me to use Oil to generate a scaffold on a database table without doing the whole name:string or typing the schema by long-hand?
I've tried this,
<code>
php oil g scaffold blog
</code>
In the hope it would pick up the database structure and build my scaffolding for me, but I always end up with blank views, and I have to end up editing the controllers and views manually.
If I change the migrations file, this is one way to do it I guess; but I still have to manually type out the tables schema/structure.
Does this feature exist, and if so what is the best way to achieve this goal?
Thanks
According to http://fuelphp.com/forums/topics/view/6758 this feature is not currently supported. But I am still interested in how the more seasoned Fuel developers get around this issue? Especially when you need to whip up something fast, like a prototype or something.
