artisan make:controller

PURPOSE

  • Controllers are used when it’s too complex to just specify a (static) view in the routes list.
  • Controllers typically return a view (in the most common case of a web view, thus a rendered HTML page).

USAGE

>php artisan make:controller FooController
 Description:
   Create a new controller class

 Usage:
   make:controller [options] [--] <name>

 Arguments:
   name                   The name of the class

 Options:
       --api              Exclude the create and edit methods from the controller.
       --force            Create the class even if the controller already exists
   -i, --invokable        Generate a single method, invokable controller class.
   -m, --model[=MODEL]    Generate a resource controller for the given model.
   -p, --parent[=PARENT]  Generate a nested resource controller class.
   -r, --resource         Generate a resource controller class.
   -h, --help             Display this help message
   -q, --quiet            Do not output any message

       --ansi             Force ANSI output

   -n, --no-interaction   Do not ask any interactive question
       --env[=ENV]        The environment the command should run under
   -v|vv|vvv, --verbose   Increase the verbosity of messages: 1 for normal output, 2 for more verbose output and 3 for debug 

PARAMETERS

--resource

The controller will contain a method for each of the available resource operations – index(), create(), store(), show(), edit(), update(), destroy().

--api

Similar to –resource above, but generate only 5 methods: index(), store(), show(), update(), destroy(). Because create/edit forms are not needed for API.

--invokable

Generates controller with one __invoke() method.

--model=Photo

If you are using route model binding and would like the resource controller’s methods to type-hint a model instance.

OUTPUT

Output will be in app/Http/Controllers:
app/Http/Controllers/FooController.php
