Laravel dummy data input

This tutorial is supported on Laravel-5.4 or lower version.

To store dummy data into posts table having a Post model, we need to work with:

Configure factory:

Create factory with the command:

php artisan make:factory PostFactory --model=Post

Open the factory and write the follwing code inside r[...]

'title'=>$faker->sentence(),
'content'=>$faker->paragraphs(rand(2, 10), true),

Now configure seeder:
Edit run() function inside seeder as like below:

public function run() {
     factory('App\Post', 10)->create();
}

Instead of editing seeder, you can work on tinker as like:

php artisan tinker
factory('App\Post', 10)->create()
