Add --seeds-directory option

See original GitHub issue

Environment

Knex version: 0.17.5 Database + version: PG 10.5 OS: Mac OS 10.13.4

Feature discussion / request

It would be nice to have a --seeds-directory option, similar to --migrations-directory one. It’s useful when you don’t/can’t use knexfile but still want to generate seeds in specific directory.

yarn knex --seeds-directory src/server/seeds seed:make users

I know this is an old one, but in the last versions we have --directory option.

Seeds CLI options

Looks like (at least for me, version ^0.20) override that config via command line is not working, I will try a PR in order to fix that

I’ve just finished opening a pull request which may support this sort of functionality, albeit in a slightly different way: https://github.com/tgriesser/knex/pull/3357

It’d look like this:

yarn knex seed:make --subdirectory src/server/seeds users

I also added support for bundling the subdirectory with the seed’s name:

yarn knex seed:make src/server/seeds/users

If you can spare a minute, please give my pull request a quick review!
