Yii2 - Generating CRUD from all models - yii2

After creating all database tables in MySQL or MariaDB, I am able to generate all Yii2 Models using gii by simple entering * and voila, all models are created.
My question; I was wondering if there's an equivalent way of generating all CRUD - at once - based on generated models in a similar way, either from the console with a one-liner or from the browser with the gii CRUD Generator.

Answer:
Not using standard "yiisoft/yii2-gii" unfortunately. You can compare the "generate()" functions for the model and crud to get a programmatic reason here:
Model: https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-gii/blob/master/src/generators/model/Generator.php
CRUD: https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2-gii/blob/master/src/generators/crud/Generator.php
Solution:
You can use "schmunk42/yii2-giiant" which looks to do what you require and has decent decent support. Found here: https://github.com/schmunk42/yii2-giiant
"mootensai/yii2-enhanced-gii" is another option but was last updated August 2017. Found here: https://github.com/mootensai/yii2-enhanced-gii
I hope these help.

Generate ERD from JavaScript

I'm building an Angular Universal application using TypeORM + MySQL. Is there any way in JavaScript to programmatically create an ERD from my TypeORM specification?
I see some related things but nothing exactly what I want:
rails-erd can do what I want for Rails apps.
Mermaid can make the diagram I want from markup, but not from reading the same Angular models.
MySQL Workbench can make the ERD after TypeORM has setup the database, but this is not an all-JS solution.
ember-erd does what I want for Ember apps.
TypeScript has some kind of Swagger integration I think, so maybe there is some way to generate the ERD from that? Or is there a way to have MySQL automatically generate the ERD without installing Workbench, perhaps via a Node module?
You can implement it with cola.js on the basis of D3JS http://ialab.it.monash.edu/webcola/ It is not the ideal solution but it can be used to emulate ERD.

Slick Database Migrations

I'm working on a project using Scala which uses Slick.io for handling database interactions. I have the database schema implemented via Slick using its DDL.
This all works fine when I was starting out but now that I am some way into the project, making changes to the database schema is becoming a pain. I have to drop all the tables, manage data, re-create the schema etc...
I've previously used the PHP framework Laravel which had a nice way of dealing with database migrations & making changes to databases. This was done via a set of classes that were controlled by a timestamp and the "most recent" migrations could be run to make any changes to a database schema.
Does Slick have any equivalent?
Thanks
No, slick itself does not have an equivalent, but you can use something like:
Flyway:
https://github.com/flyway/flyway
http://flywaydb.org/
As you have not given any additional info:
for the play-framework there is an own module, which can be found here: https://github.com/flyway/flyway-play

Django using external mysql DB - best way to tackle

I have scanned all of the similar titles and questions regarding my issue and also the django website itself and I cannot find the best solution. I apologize if this has been answered.
My django is configured to use a MySQL database with information already inside of it.
I have a database with tables created inside of them in which I will only need to read from to build graphs.
Should I build a model for each one of these types of tables?
Basically a new table named simulation_log201403 is created each time we run a simulation. Inside of this we have a timestamp, node, ppsavg etc. This simulation ID is linked to a computer_id.
Do I have to hand create each model based off my old database?
Thanks for the help
I'm not sure I understand your question. If you're asking how to use Django with a database not created by your Django models, read the chapter entitled Integrating Django with a legacy database.

mysql framework for node.js

Is there any mysql framework for node.js?
I found only https://github.com/felixge/node-mysql but this only allows executing "raw" mysql statements. I am looking for some tool which will provide easier way of manipulating mysql database and data.
Especially I need pagination and joining mechanisms...
I am not looking for a full framework because I am using restify to build RESTapi - just need a module to retrieve/save data to mysql db. So I need only "model" part of MVC ;).
It sounds like you may be looking for an ORM. If that's the case, you can take a look at Sequelize. It will let you define your objects, and then simply 'save' and 'fetch' them, without really having to worry about how its doing it.
You can look at db-mysql module. This module provides api for creating queries. Here is module GitHub page.

Using existing mysql schema in nodejs

I tried using sequelize and node-orm as well - but is there a way to reuse existing mysql schema? I Have a db schema defined with tables in mysql and wanted to use this with my node.js app (using express). So, I don't have to write all the define methods of defining tables again.
Any help appreciated...
I went through bunch of stackoverflow questions already such as: Which ORM should I use for Node.js and MySQL?
Thanks,
JP
Checkout bookshelf.js, it doesn't require that you define the schema in the model layer.
