This is what I use at the moment to create Controller and Model
php artisan make:controller API/name_of_controller --api --model=name_of_model
then create a migration
php artisan make:migration create_users_table
In the past before I started using API, I used to do this to create model, migration and controller in one single line
php artisan make:model Banana -mcr
Is there a way to do this with API controller?
