README

A Rich-class console toolkit for Laravel — fluent terminal output (formatter, spinners, progress bars, boxes, trees, tables, charts, a Markdown + typography layer) and input (a laravel/prompts wrapper with a form builder and 26 validators).

Requires PHP ^8.4.1 on Laravel ^13 (Symfony 8).

Install

composer require laranail/console

The service provider, the Console/Prompter facades, and the prompter() helper are auto-discovered. Publish config/lang if you want to customise them:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=console-config
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=console-lang
