laravel 5.1 undefined table when seeding - php

Question

I have model Campaigns
<?php
namespace App;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use App\CampaignsTargetGeo;
use App\CampaignsTargetCategory;
class Campaigns extends Model
{
const DEFAULT_MARGINALITY = 1.2;
protected $table = 'campaigns';
public $fillable = [
'name',
'url',
'user_rate_min',
'user_rate_max',
'network_rate_min',
'network_rate_max',
'daily_limit',
'hourly_limit',
'status_id',
'user_id'
];
and seed CampaignsSeeder
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use App\Campaigns;
class CampaignsSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* #return void
*/
public function run() {
$campaigns = \DB::table('campaigns')->insert([
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'test campaign',
'url' => 'http://example.com?test=true',
'user_rate_min' => '80',
'user_rate_max' => '100',
'network_rate_min' => '100',
'network_rate_max' => '120',
'daily_limit' => '10000',
'hourly_limit' => '1000',
'status_id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1'
]);
}
}
and database seeder class
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
/**
* Run the database seeds.
*
* #return void
*/
public function run()
{
Model::unguard();
$this->call('UserSeeder');
$this->call('DictionariesTargetGeoSeeder');
$this->call('DictionariesTargetCategoriesSeeder');
$this->call('DictionariesCampaignStatusesSeeder');
$this->call('CampaignsSeeder');
Model::reguard();
}
}
when I run php artisan db:seed, I have this error
➜ panel git:(master) ✗ pa db:seed
Seeded: UserSeeder
Seeded: DictionariesTargetGeoSeeder
Seeded: DictionariesTargetCategoriesSeeder
Seeded: DictionariesCampaignStatusesSeeder
[Illuminate\Database\QueryException]
SQLSTATE[42P01]: Undefined table: 7 ERROR: relation "campaigns" does not exist LINE 1: insert into "campaigns" ("id", "name", "url", "user_rate_min... ^ (SQL: insert into "campaigns" ("id", "name", "url", "user_rate_min", "user_rate_max", "network_rate_min", "network_rate_max", "daily_limit", "hourly_limit", "status_id", "user_id") values (1, test campaign, http://example.com80test=true, 100, 100, 120, 10000, 1000, 1, 1, ?))
[PDOException]
SQLSTATE[42P01]: Undefined table: 7 ERROR: relation "campaigns" does not exist LINE 1: insert into "campaigns" ("id", "name", "url", "user_rate_min...
^
But table exists! I check in psql console. May transaction not commit in this moment?
If I ran ➜ panel git:(master) ✗ php artisan db:seed --class=CampaignsSeeder it works correctly
Why? :-)

Answer 1

insert() method expects an array of arrays (one array per row) but you are inserting one single array. Try with
$campaigns = \DB::table('campaigns')->insert([
[
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'test campaign',
'url' => 'http://example.com?test=true',
'user_rate_min' => '80',
'user_rate_max' => '100',
'network_rate_min' => '100',
'network_rate_max' => '120',
'daily_limit' => '10000',
'hourly_limit' => '1000',
'status_id' => '1',
'user_id' => '1'
]
]);
