Laravel Commands

# Create action

The make:action command is a Laravel command that allows you to create a new action class. An action class is used to group business logic into a single object, making it more organized and reusable.

To create a new action class, simply run the php artisan make:action command followed by the name of the class you want to create. For example, to create an action class called CreateUser, you would run the following command:

php artisan make:action CreateUser

This will create the following files:

├── app
│   └── Actions
│       └── CreateUser
└── tests
    └── Feature
        └── Actions
            └── CreateUserTest

# Options

In addition to the class name, you can also specify additional options when creating an action class. Some useful options include:

  • --create: create a create action for a specific model
  • --update: create a update action for a specific model
  • --delete: create a delete action for a specific model
  • --crud: create actions for create, update and delete (all previous options)
  • --without-tests: allows create an action without tests
  • --unit-test: allows create an action with unit test instead of default feature test
  • --method: allows you to specify the main method of the action class instead of default execute

The --create, --update and --delete options would be followed with the --model option. For example, if you're creating an action class to create a user, you should use below command to indicate that the action class is related to the User model.

php artisan --create --model=App\Models\User
