Gii code generator

This extension provides a web-based code generator called Gii for Yii 2 applications. You can use Gii to quickly generate models, forms, modules, CRUD, and many more.

Getting ready

1. Create a new application by using composer, as described in the official guide at http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-start-installation.html.

2. Create a new migration with the shell command:

   php yii migrate/create create_customer_table
   

3. Put the following code into the up() and down() methods:

   use yii\db\Schema;
   use yii\db\Migration;
   class m160201_154207_create_customer_table extends Migration
   {
       public function up()
       {
           $tableOptions = null;
           if ($this->db->driverName === 'mysql') {
               $tableOptions = 
                   'CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci ENGINE=InnoDB';
          }
           $this->createTable('{{%customer}}', [
               'id' => Schema::TYPE_PK,
               'name' => Schema::TYPE_STRING . ' NOT NULL',
               'email' =&gt...
