README

Development CLI commands for the GEMVC framework.

Composer package: gemvc/cli-dev
GitHub repo: gemvc/cli-dev
Current release: 1.1.2 (9 June 2026) — see RELEASE_NOTES.md

WARNING

This is an internal GEMVC ecosystem package. Install it only as a dev dependency alongside gemvc/library.

Do not install in production (composer install --no-dev should omit this package).

Core commands (gemvc init, db:migrate) remain in gemvc/library.

Installation

composer require --dev gemvc/cli-dev

Requires gemvc/library ^5.8 (pulled in automatically).

Commands

Group	Commands
Code generation	`create:service`, `create:controller`, `create:model`, `create:table`, `create:crud`
Database (dev)	`db:init`, `db:list`, `db:describe`, `db:drop`, `db:unique`
Admin	`admin:setpassword`, `admin:setadmin`

Production migrations stay in the core library: gemvc db:migrate TableClass.

Namespace

Gemvc\CLI\Commands\* — unchanged from the monorepo layout.

Shared internal traits (same namespace, not part of the public CLI surface):

ResolvesDatabaseEnvironment — DB env loading for db:* commands

Dependencies

gemvc/cli-base — terminal I/O and codegen abstracts
gemvc/library — database layer, helpers, DbConnect / DbMigrate (core)

Pairing with gemvc/library

gemvc/library  →  does NOT require cli-dev (suggest only after 5.9)
gemvc/cli-dev  →  requires gemvc/library (no circular dependency)

Development

composer install
composer test              # unit + feature (223 tests)
composer test:unit         # unit tests only
composer test:feature      # feature tests (project-style runs)
composer test:coverage     # full coverage report
composer test:feature:coverage
composer phpstan           # level 9

Feature tests run commands against a seeded project under build/feature-projects/ (.env, composer.json, templates). Unit tests use stubs in stubs/ for library types not bundled in this package.

See CLI_DEV.md for command reference.
