stop wishing and start building

Frequently I find myself thinking "it would be nice if an artisan command existed for this". This package solves that problem by adding hundreds of missing artisan commands. More in sight: Keep the PR's coming!

Installation

composer require blemli/partysan --dev

Usage

just run php artisan browse and have fun.

Commands

browse, dependency:switch, db:create, open

db:create

Create the database for a connection if it does not exist yet. Supports all first-party Laravel drivers: sqlite, mysql, mariadb, pgsql and sqlsrv.

# create the database of the default connection
php artisan db:create

# create a specific database on a specific connection
php artisan db:create my_database --connection=pgsql

# mysql/mariadb charset & collation (defaults to the connection config)
php artisan db:create --charset=utf8mb4 --collation=utf8mb4_unicode_ci

# use a privileged account when the app user may not create databases
php artisan db:create --admin-user=root --admin-password=secret

# skip the confirmation prompt in production
php artisan db:create --force

For sqlite the database file (including missing parent directories) is created. For the server drivers the command connects to the server's maintenance database (postgres for pgsql, master for sqlsrv) with the connection's credentials — or the given admin credentials — and issues a CREATE DATABASE if it is missing.

open

Open the app in your browser (also available as visit):

# open the current APP_URL (config('app.url'))
php artisan open

# open the APP_URL from .env.production
php artisan open --env=production

With --env=<environment> the URL is read directly from .env.<environment> in the project root, so it works even when the config is cached. Fails with a clear error if the file does not exist or has no APP_URL.

dependency:switch

Switch a composer dependency between local symlink, VCS (git) and Packagist sources:

php artisan dependency:switch                          # interactive
php artisan dependency:switch vendor/package --local   # symlink a local checkout
php artisan dependency:switch vendor/package --vcs     # use a git repo/branch
php artisan dependency:switch vendor/package --packagist  # reset to Packagist
php artisan dependency:switch --list                   # list dependencies and their source

--list prints every dependency with its current mode, branch and PR status. The PR column is looked up via gh for switched packages only, so the listing stays fast; it is left empty when gh is unavailable. Combine --list with --local, --vcs or --packagist to filter by source, and with --transitive to include transitive dependencies.
