# Extendable Interactive Make Command for Laravel

**Make** your life easier with interactive make command!

## Installation

```bash

composer require hydreflab/laravel-make-me

```

### Laravel >= 5.5

Package uses Laravel auto-discovery feature, so no service provider registration is needed.

### Laravel <= 5.4

Manual service provider registration is required in `config/app.php`:

```bash

'providers' => [

    // ...

    

    HydrefLab\Laravel\Make\MakeServiceProvider::class,

]

```

*Note: PHP >= 7.0 is required to run this package*

## Usage

To use interactive make, just run:

```bash

php artisan make

```

After that, you'll be asked what kind of class do you want to generate. Then, you'll be asked a 

series of questions in order to prepare class that suits your needs.

Interactive make integrates all default Laravel generator commands.

If you want to check what's available, simply run:

```

php artisan make --list

```

## Why

Laravel's Artisan is a great tool. Laravel's generators (make) commands are great tools. Quite 

often they have a lot of additional options available. However, without checking out the command's 

code or run command with `--help` option, it is a mystery what additional stuff particular

command can do. That's why I created this interactive make command. Enjoy!

[Edit]: I recently noticed that there is a similar [package](https://github.com/laracademy/interactive-make) that also

adds interactive make. Check that out, maybe it will suit you better.

## Extendability

Quite often, as project advances, you end up in a situation that you're creating your own generator

commands, your own _make:something_. It would be awesome if this new command could be included

in the interactive make. Hey, that's possible.

To add custom (non-default) generator command to the interactive make:

* command has to have `public collectInputForInteractiveMake()` method implemented,

* `collectInputForInteractiveMake` method must return an array,

* command must extend `Illuminate\Console\Command` class (since it is make-like command, I recommend to extend `Illuminate\Console\GeneratorCommand`),

* command name must contain `make:` prefix, for example `make:awesome`.

Example:

```php

 $this->ask('What is your name, awesome?'),

            '-s' => $this->ask('How awesome are you?', 10),

        ];

    }

}

```

That's it. `MyAwesomeMakeCommand` command will now be included in the interactive make as `awesome`.
