Console

config/packages/console.php bootstraps the Symfony Console application and its class-discovery pipeline.

What it does

• Creates the Application (the top-level Symfony Console runner) named "Forest City Labs Framework Console".
• Wires a CommandLoader backed by a ChainedDiscovery that combines:
  • ManualDiscovery — commands registered via the console.commands list.
  • ScanDirectoryDiscovery — commands found by scanning directories in console.paths.
• Attaches a HelperSet with the four standard Symfony helpers.
• Sets setCatchErrors to the value of app.debug so exceptions surface cleanly in development.

Configuration parameters

Key	Default	Description
console.commands	[]	Explicit list of command class names to register. Other packages append their commands here via add([...]).
console.paths	[{app.project_root}/src/Command]	Directories scanned for command classes. Add directories here to auto-discover commands without manually listing them.
console.helpers	Four standard helpers	FormatterHelper, DebugFormatterHelper, ProcessHelper, QuestionHelper. Extend with add([...]) to register additional helpers.

Registering a command manually

Commands in src/Command/ are discovered automatically. To register a command from elsewhere, add it to console.commands in services.php:

// services.php
use function DI\add;
use function DI\get;

'console.commands' => add([
    get(\Application\Command\MySpecialCommand::class),
]),

Adding a command scan directory

// services.php
use function DI\add;
use function DI\string;

'console.paths' => add([
    string('{app.project_root}/src/Module/Command'),
]),
