README

A useful command line interface for SilverStripe developers.

Requirements

PHP 5.6 or above
SilverStripe 4.x or above
Composer

Installation

With Composer

It is recommended to install this module globally with composer:

composer global require silverleague/ssconsole
$ ssconsole

Ensure your composer's bin folder has been added to your system path.

You can still require this module as a project dependency if you don't want to install it globally, of course:

composer require --dev silverleague/ssconsole
$ vendor/bin/ssconsole

From source

If you wish to install this module from source, you can clone the repository and symlink bin/ssconsole into your system path, for example:

git clone git@github.com:silverleague/silverstripe-console.git
cd silverstripe-console
chmod u+x bin/console
ln -s "$(pwd)/bin/ssconsole" /usr/local/bin/ssconsole

Usage

For detailed usage information, please see the documentation.

Commands

To show the console menu and list of commands, run ssconsole from your terminal.

Running commands

To run a command, choose the desired command from the menu and add it as an argument:

# Runs a task
ssconsole dev:tasks:cleanup-test-databases

# Builds the database and flushed the manifest/cache
ssconsole dev:build --flush

Flushing the manifest

Sometimes you need to flush SilverStripe's manifest/cache while running CLI tasks. For example, if you've added a new BuildTask, but it doesn't show up in the SilverStripe console yet.

You can add the --flush option to any ssconsole command to instruct SilverStripe to flush and rebuild its manifest.
