Re: Online baking tool for CakePHP

Hi phpirate, thanks for the comment :)

I agree that the cake bake tool is kinda easy to use when you are accostumed with command lines, but not everybody is.... Besides, setting up the cake console in Windows and MacOS environments is not always easy (I know, those people had it coming).

Moreover the important point of this tool is to be able to easily design the models of an application, with all their fields properties to get a SQL file ready to be plugged into a database, the candy (or the nice and crunchy petit four) is to also get at the same time Models files with all the relations and validations rules (easily edited) and standard Controllers/Views if needed.

With this tool you can do all this in just one step, while with cake bake you have to: modify your database, create each model and edit its properties (validation rules in a browser with JS >> console), same for controllers and views. Of course you have the "bake all" option, but then you cannot edit custom properties (for models especially).

So all in all I think it really brings something new and useful to the community. And I really hope that with some further improvements it will become a major tool for every CakePHP user :)

The tool is awesome,  Thanks for sharing :)

Just a small question though, dont you think that it reinvents the wheel? i mean bake tool is already easy to use on a localhost machine so why would anyone need to use an online baking tool?
