Hello Friends,

Today, I would like to show you how to create a blade view file using the artisan command in laravel. I explained simply about creating blade file laravel command. this example will help you how to create a view file in laravel using the artisan command. you can understand how to create a blade file in laravel using a command. Here, Creating a basic example of the laravel creates blade command example.

Laravel provides default artisan commands to create a model, controller, rule, etc. but you can not create a blade file using the artisan command. so we will create our own custom artisan command to create a blade file using it. we will create php artisan make:view {filename} to make blade file.

You can use this example with laravel 6, laravel 7, laravel 8, and laravel 9 versions.

You have just to follow the below step and you will get the layout as below:

Step 1: Install Laravel

This is optional; however, if you have not created the laravel app, then you may go ahead and execute the below command:

composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app

Step 2: Create Custom Artisan Command

Here, we will create a custom artisan command using the following command, so let's run it:

php artisan make:command MakeViewCommand

Next, let's update MakeViewCommand.php file with below code:

app/Console/Commands/MakeViewCommand.php

<?php

  
namespace App\Console\Commands;

  
use Illuminate\Console\Command;
use File;

  
class MakeViewCommand extends Command
{
    /**
     * The name and signature of the console command.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $signature = 'make:view {view}';

  
    /**
     * The console command description.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $description = 'Create a new blade template.';

  
    /**
     * Execute the console command.
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle()
    {
        $view = $this->argument('view');

  
        $path = $this->viewPath($view);

  
        $this->createDir($path);

  
        if (File::exists($path))
        {
            $this->error("File {$path} already exists!");
            return;
        }

  
        File::put($path, $path);

  
        $this->info("File {$path} created.");
    }

  
     /**
     * Get the view full path.
     *
     * @param string $view
     *
     * @return string
     */
    public function viewPath($view)
    {
        $view = str_replace('.', '/', $view) . '.blade.php';

  
        $path = "resources/views/{$view}";

  
        return $path;
    }

  
    /**
     * Create view directory if not exists.
     *
     * @param $path
     */
    public function createDir($path)
    {
        $dir = dirname($path);

  
        if (!file_exists($dir))
        {
            mkdir($dir, 0777, true);
        }
    }
}

Step 3: Use Artisan Command

Now, you can use the following artisan command to create a blade file.

You will be able to create a demo.blade.php blade file in the resources/views directory using the below command:

php artisan make:view demo

You will be able to create a demo.blade.php blade file in resources/views/demo directory using the below command:

php artisan make:view demo
