Call laravel controller via command line
I am using Laravel 5.0 and I am triggering controllers using this code:
$ php artisan tinker
$ $controller = app()->make('App\Http\Controllers\MyController');
$ app()->call([$controller, 'myMethodName'], []);
the last []
in the app()->call()
can hold arguments such as [user_id] => 10
etc'
Laravel 5.7
Using tinker
// URL: http://xxx.test/calendar?filter[id]=1&anotherparam=2
$cc = app()->make('App\Http\Controllers\CalendarController');
app()->call([$cc, 'getCalendarV2'], ['filter[id]'=>1, 'anotherparam' => '2']);
There is no way so far (not sure if there will ever be). However you can create your own Artisan Command that can do that. Create a command CallRoute
using this:
php artisan make:console CallRoute
For Laravel 5.3 or greater you need to use make:command
instead:
php artisan make:command CallRoute
This will generate a command class in app/Console/Commands/CallRoute.php
. The contents of that class should look like this:
<?php namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputOption;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class CallRoute extends Command {
protected $name = 'route:call';
protected $description = 'Call route from CLI';
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
public function fire()
{
$request = Request::create($this->option('uri'), 'GET');
$this->info(app()['Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel']->handle($request));
}
protected function getOptions()
{
return [
['uri', null, InputOption::VALUE_REQUIRED, 'The path of the route to be called', null],
];
}
}
You then need to register the command by adding it to the $commands
array in app/Console/Kernel.php
:
protected $commands = [
...,
'App\Console\Commands\CallRoute',
];
You can now call any route by using this command:
php artisan route:call --uri=/route/path/with/param
Mind you, this command will return a response as it would be sent to the browser, that means it includes the HTTP headers at the top of the output.
For Laravel 5.4: php artisan make:command CallRoute
Then in app/Console/Commands/CallRoute.php
:
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class CallRoute extends Command
{
/**
* The name and signature of the console command.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $signature = 'route:call {uri}';
/**
* The console command description.
*
* @var string
*/
protected $description = 'php artsian route:call /route';
/**
* Create a new command instance.
*
* @return void
*/
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
/**
* Execute the console command.
*
* @return mixed
*/
public function handle()
{
$request = Request::create($this->argument('uri'), 'GET');
$this->info(app()->make(\Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel::class)->handle($request));
}
}
Then in app/Console/Kernel.php
:
protected $commands = [
'App\Console\Commands\CallRoute'
];
Call like: php artisan route:call /path
