Is
php artisan make:model Test -m
equivalent to
php artisan make:migration create_tests_table --create=tests
?
Does make:model -m create a tests table?
In php artisan make:model Test -m, The -m flag will create a migration file for that model.
In php artisan make:migration create_tests_table --create=tests, the --create flag is the name of the table that will be created.
So yes, the -m option will create a migration file with a name like TIMESTAMP_create_tests_table.php
Update
If you find yourself in a situation when you doubt about commands, you can always run a command like this form your terminal: php artisan help make:model. You'll see an overview with some explenation about the extra options of that specific command.
No they are not equivalent; they are very different. One is creating a model AND also creating a migration while the other is just creating a migration (both migrations include a table called tests). Bear in mind that creating a model and creating a table are not the same thing. From the docs: "The Eloquent ORM included with Laravel provides a beautiful, simple ActiveRecord implementation for working with your database. Each database table has a corresponding "Model" which is used to interact with that table. Models allow you to query for data in your tables, as well as insert new records into the table."

php app/console make:migration
Then hit this command to reflect your entity into the database
php app/console doctrine:migration:migrate
To check you current migration status and track hit this command

I just had the same problem: migration wasn't getting generated for a specific entity.
After a while I found out it was because of my Doctrine Cache.
I cleared the cache pool and could generate my migration properly.
I have an issue with laravel.
I have created a database named billing and connection is working fine for all tables. Now I created a new table named as masters. When I'm using this table then it is showing error base table or view masters not found
How can I resolve this issue?
This is usual for beginners. I have a few hints:
You might want to manually check the database, outside of Laravel, to
be sure the table has not been add.
Sometimes, you might just have misspelt the table name.
Did you forget to run the migration? If so, you need to run the
migration to add the table to the database. You can simple use php
artisan migrate on the command line.
If all these don't resolve it, dump you autoload files with composer and rerun your migration. You can use composer dumpautoload and then php artisan migrate:refresh
To create a migration, use the make:migration Artisan command:
php artisan make:migration create_masters_table
The new migration will be placed in your database/migrations directory.
You can use Laravel schema builder to expressively create and modify tables.
To run all of your outstanding migrations, execute the migrate Artisan command: php artisan migrate
Is there a differences between the Symfony console command make:migration and doctrine:migrations:diff?
There is no difference between these two commands.
make:migration is simply a Symfony provided wrapper for the Doctrine command.
You can run either to the exact same effect. But the symfony one requires that you have the Symfony Maker bundle, which otherwise it not required.
make:migration will create empty file for you so you can write your custom migration
doctrine:migrations:diff will compare your current database schema with entities mappings and if there is difference then it will create migration so you can update you database schema to reflect your entities mappings
I am new laravel programmer, and I have simple question
about setting up database.
Assume that I create all required migrations, models, and eloquent relationships, also configure mysql database in laravel, now in this point, is laravel will create all mysql tables required in server's DB according to migrations, models, and eloquent that I created before?
In other words, do I need to create tables in mysql server as scratch developer do?
To create a migration, use the make:migration Artisan command:
php artisan make:migration create_users_table
To run all of your outstanding migrations, execute the migrate Artisan command:
php artisan migrate
Laravel have many commands from console.
from console,go to your project folder path run php artisan list to see all avaliable commands.
your question asked how to create tables after you created migrations, which is php artisan migrate.
For a fresh start,
I've deleted all my migration files, dropped all tables in MySQL and deleted all the table migrations columns in MySQL.
But when i'm running php artisan make:model Article Laravel responds by
Model created successfully.
Created Migration: 2015_04_28_181243_create_articles_table
Which is a migration file i've deleted previously! Why does it keep returning this way? and how can i get rid of it completely?
Well the make:model command generates a migration by default.
To opt-out of this add the no-migration option:
php artisan make:model Article --no-migration
