Quick Tip

Artisan command parameters

When creating Artisan command, you can ask the input in variety of ways: $this->confirm(), $this->anticipate(), $this->choice().

// Yes or no?
if ($this->confirm('Do you wish to continue?')) {
//
}
 
// Open question with auto-complete options
$name = $this->anticipate('What is your name?', ['Taylor', 'Dayle']);
 
// One of the listed options with default index
$name = $this->choice('What is your name?', ['Taylor', 'Dayle'], $defaultIndex);
