Laravel ERD Viewer
Interactive Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) visualizer for Laravel migrations directly inside VS Code.
Features
- Zero-setup parsing: Statically analyzes
database/migrations/*.php using AST (no PHP runtime or database connection required).
- Interactive ERD: Pan, zoom, drag nodes, inspect columns (types, PK/FK, nullable, unique) and relationships.
- Trace to Source: Click any table or column to jump directly to the migration and line where it was defined.
- Smart Relations: Detects explicit foreign keys (
constrained(), foreign()->references()) and convention-based relations (user_id -> users.id).
- Layout Persistence: Custom node positioning is automatically saved and restored.
- Theme Aware: Seamlessly adapts to your VS Code light and dark themes.
Usage
- Open a Laravel project in VS Code.
- Open the Command Palette (
Ctrl+Shift+P or Cmd+Shift+P).
- Run Laravel ERD: Show Diagram.
