Seeding the Database

❗️

WARNING

Seeding your database will OVERWRITE ALL OF YOUR DATA. Do NOT run the seeder on a production database unless you want to kiss your data goodbye.

Snipe-IT comes with a utility to seed the database with some realistic looking data. Common laptops, mobile phones, displays and so on will be loaded into your database.

To seed your database, simply run:

php artisan db:seed

This can be handy when you first install Snipe-IT so you can get an idea of what a fully populated install would look like.
