# EctoGenerator
Generate Ecto schemas/models from existing database in Phoenix - Elixir
## Installation
#### Generate new Phoenix application
```elixir
[alexandrubagu@localhost devel]$ mix phoenix.new postgresapp
```
or
```elixir
[alexandrubagu@localhost devel]$ mix phoenix.new mysqlapp --database mysql
```
#### Add `ecto_generator` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:
```elixir
def deps do
[{:ecto_generator, "~> 9.0.0"}]
end
```
#### Install mix dependencies by running the following command in bash `mix deps.get`
#### Edit you configuration if is necessary:
```elixir
# Configure your database
config :mysqlapp, Mysqlapp.Repo,
adapter: Ecto.Adapters.MySQL,
username: "root",
password: "",
database: "hello_phoenix_dev",
hostname: "localhost",
pool_size: 10
```
#### Now you will find `ecto.dump.schema` in mix tasks:
```elixir
[alexandrubagu@localhost devel/phoenix/] mix ecto
