Symfony CLI Minimum Skeleton

Thi CLI project skeleton tempts to require the least amount of code needed to write a command line interface project based on Symfony Console.

The folder structure follow a simple Domain Driven Design application structure by suggesting splitting Application, Domain, UserInterface, and Infrastructure responsibilities.

The minimum of features that is needed for developing CLI applications is included:

• Auto-wiring on all classes in /src
• Autoconfigure Command implementations directly to the CLI console application
• PHPUnit

How to run tests?

Running PHPUnit test suites is possible by running composer run tests. The /tests folder gets auto-registered by composer, and follows the DDD application structure, but no actual tests are provided with the skeleton.

How to register a command to the CLI console?

Registering a command to the CLI application is the only autoconfiguration available in this skeleton, as can be found in config/services.php.

• Create a class (preferably in /src/UserInterface/Cli) and let it extend SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand
• Run bin/console, the command created became available

Environment requirements

• PHP >=8.0.2 with ext-mbstring extension enabled
• Composer
