Laravel 9 seeder doesn't execute all seeders-CodePudding

I have problem with seeders in laravel 9. The problem is when I want to execute all seeders with commands like php artisan db:seed, php artisan db:fresh and similar commands that should execute all seeders. Seeder are only working when I specify exact class with command like php artisan db:seed --class=UserSeeder and similar command that are executing specific seeder. How I can fix this problem and execute all seeders?

CodePudding user response：

The php artisan db:seed command's --class flag has a default of Database\Seeders\DatabaseSeeder, which you can see by issuing php artisan db:seed --help:

Description:
  Seed the database with records

Usage:
  db:seed [options] [--] [<class>]

Arguments:
  class                      The class name of the root seeder

Options:
      --class[=CLASS]        The class name of the root seeder [default: "Database\Seeders\DatabaseSeeder"]
      --database[=DATABASE]  The database connection to seed
      --force                Force the operation to run when in production
  -h, --help                 Display help for the given command. When no command is given display help for the list command
  -q, --quiet                Do not output any message
  -V, --version              Display this application version
      --ansi|--no-ansi       Force (or disable --no-ansi) ANSI output
  -n, --no-interaction       Do not ask any interactive question
      --env[=ENV]            The environment the command should run under
  -v|vv|vvv, --verbose       Increase the verbosity of messages: 1 for normal output, 2 for more verbose output and 3 for debug

If you'd like to run other seeders without having to manually specify the class via --class, you can do so within DatabaseSeeder via $this->call(...).

CodePudding user response：

You need to add all seeders that you need to run to your DatabaseSeeder.php file. Then run php artisan db:seed

public function run()
{
    $this->call([
        UserSeeder::class,
        PostSeeder::class,
        CommentSeeder::class,
    ]);
}
