Gii extension automation

Hi all,

I’m developing a Module into a Yii 2.0 based application and I would need to create a model programmatically from my module.

The application has Yii and Gii extensions installed

I’ve done some attempts to call the Model generator, mostly based on this thread http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php/topic/49151-how-to-create-model-programmatically/ but I’m not able to get it working with Yii/Gii 2.0

What I’d like to do it to call from a function in my module the Model generator providing options like:

  • database table name

  • model name

  • name space

  • and so on…

and save it into a given folder.

I’m wondering if any of you may help me about this issue.

Please bear in mind I’m rather new at Yii and still learning; so as much code as you could provide it would be great :).

if yoiu need further information, let me know and I’ll try at the best of my knowledge.

thanks in advance,

Gaetano
