The ER Diagram package is highly customizable, including Graphviz options that you want to be applied to your graph, table styles, and model paths, to name a few.
For example, if your model classes live in a different namespace than the default path, you can configure multiple paths with the following configuration:
'directories' => [app_path('models'), // app/models/ ],
Check out the package configuration file for full customization and configuration details.
To generate your application’s visual model graph, you use the artisan console command:
php artisan generate:erdCustom filename
php artisan generate:erd output.pngSVG format
php artisan generate:erd output.svg --format=svgLearn More
You can check out this package and readme on the official GitHub repository. To learn more about the underlying tool used to create graph visualizations, you can learn more on graphviz.org.
