Create a new console command

The "Make" extension can be used to create a new console command:

vendor/bin/typo3 make:command

typo3/sysext/core/bin/typo3 make:command

You will be prompted with a list of installed extensions. If your newly created extension is missing, check if you installed it properly.

Enter the command name to execute on CLI [myextension:dosomething]:

This name will be used to call the command later on. It should be prefixed with your extensions name without special signs. It is considered best practise to use the same name as for the controller, in lowercase.

Should the command be schedulable? (yes/no) [no]:

If you want the command to be available in the backend in module System > Scheduler choose yes. If it should be only callable from the console, for example if it prompts for input, choose no.
