links table need seeds generator

[quant-algo]

Right now when you want move your app from local to production you need to re-create links data or import-export it ,

we need seeds generator for links table

[whackashoe]

What does this mean?

@whackashoe updated

[warksit]

Why not store the links data in a configure file? Then we can just store it in git?

[warksit]

Would do a pull request if this was supported.

@warksit we want to have powerful menu for panel , later we will add sub menu lot of things that can not be done with config file .

I think a pull request for seed generator for panel would be good fix ,

Listen to links model changes and generate a seed for it

[warksit]

What is the approx timescale for the new menu?

Hey guys... @warksit @serverfire i just created a similar issue which i'll go delete now... In my troubles i think i may have found a possible solution. https://github.com/orangehill/iseed this package allows seeding of existing data in db and i think it may solve the problem... What do you think?

[acekyd]

I just used the package on one of my installations and it worked smoothly... How can we integrate this.. The major tables that need seeding are links, admin, and admin_role

@acekyd you could just send a pull request and I will merge it, the important part is let them select the tables they want it config file. Thank you
