In Magento 2, You probably familiar with command lines:
php bin/magento setup:upgrade
php bin/magento setup:static-content:deploy -f
php bin/magento cache:flush
…
How do you create a command line? How can you create a custom command line for your Magento project?
In this article, I will guide you on how to create an extension with console command in Magento 2.
Step 1: Create registration.php file in path of module app/code/Magepow/HelloCli/registration.php.
Content would be:
<?php
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
‘Magepow_HelloCli’,
__DIR__
);
Step 2: Create di.xml file in path of module app/code/Magepow/HelloCli/etc/di.xml.
Content would be:
<?xml version=“1.0”?>
<config xmlns:xsi=“http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=“urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd”>
<type name=“Magento\Framework\Console\CommandList”>
<arguments>
<argument name=“commands” xsi:type=“array”>
<item name=“HelloCli” xsi:type=“object”>Magepow\HelloCli\Console\HelloCli</item>
</argument>
</arguments>
</type>
</config>
Step 3: Create module.xml file in path of module app/code/Magepow/HelloCli/etc/module.xml.
Content would be:
<?xml version=“1.0”?>
<config xmlns:xsi=“http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=“urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd”>
<module name=“Magepow_HelloCli” setup_version=“0.1.0”/>
</config>
Step 4: Create HelloCli.php file in path of module app/code/Magepow/HelloCli/Console/HelloCli.php.
Content would be:
<?php
namespace Magepow\HelloCli\Console;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Command\Command;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputInterface;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\OutputInterface;
class HelloCli extends Command
{
protected function configure()
{
$this->setName(‘magepow:sayhello’);
$this->setDescription(‘Magepow command line’);
parent::configure();
}
protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
{
$output->writeln(“Magepow Hello World”);
}
}
Done! Now, you can check it by command line:
php bin/magento magepow:sayhello
