the next step after migrations is to create SEEDERS.. u would iummediately create seeders that you need.. look at docs for instructions..

Always create an admin on migration
Hi, I'd like my migration to always create a new user. This is the users table
class CreateUsersTable extends Migration
{
/**
* Run the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function up()
{
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('type')->default('default');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('access_token');
$table->string('prepend');
$table->timestamp('email_verified_at')->nullable();
$table->string('password');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
}
/**
* Reverse the migrations.
*
* @return void
*/
public function down()
{
Schema::dropIfExists('users');
}
}
How would I go about creating a default user whenever the table is migrated?

You can use a seeder to create a user (or users):
/database/seeds/UsersTableSeeder.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
class UsersTableSeeder extends Seeder
{
public function run()
{
DB::table('users')->insert([
[
'name' => 'John Doe',
'email' => '[email protected]',
'password' => bcrypt('test'),
'type' => 'admin'
],
[
'name' => 'Jane Doe',
'email' => '[email protected]',
'password' => bcrypt('test')
],
]);
}
}
You could use a factory here as well, either way, then:
/database/seeds/DatabaseSeeder.php
<?php
use Illuminate\Database\Seeder;
class DatabaseSeeder extends Seeder
{
public function run()
{
$this->call([
UsersTableSeeder::class,
]);
}
}
After you create the seeder just add the --seed flag when you migrate your database.
php artisan migrate --seed

@REALRANDYALLEN - What I did was insert a new 'user' into the 'users' table. I diddn't use a seeder because this wont be test data. Just whenever you migrate make an admin user. Thank you for all the help.
DB::table('users')->insert
([
'type' => 'admin',
'name' => 'Adam Thorn',
'email' => '[email protected]',
'prepend' => '#01',
'password' => Hash::make('Password123'),
]);
