Auto binding Artisan commands in packages

[onigoetz]

Hi,

I created a composer package some time ago, with some symfony command line commands.

Now that i'm implementing L4 on a project that uses this package I wanted to be able to reuse these commands inside Artisan.

so I have two questions :

• How to auto-bind commands to Artisan with packages ?, a specific file ?, an autoloading file in composer ?
• Is it possible to use "pure" symfony commands inside Artisan or do I have to wrap my command in a Laravel compatible command ?

Thanks in advance

You need to resolve your command (if it's bound to the application container) or add it. This should be done in app/start/artisan.php.

I'm going to say yes it's possible to use a raw Symfony command with Artisan. Extending Laravel's Illuminate\Console\Command just gives you access to easier helpers. Have a crack!

I believe you should be able to use "pure" Symfony commands, yes. Also, you may use the commands method from a service provider to register commands.
