CLI Commands

backup-manager:install

Scaffolds stack-specific responder classes and a service provider into the host application so each app owns its UI implementation.

php artisan backup-manager:install --stack=inertia

Options

Option	Description
--stack=	Required. Responder stack preset: inertia or custom. If not provided, you will be prompted interactively.
--path=	Destination directory for generated classes. Defaults to app/BackupManager. Accepts paths relative to base_path() or absolute paths.
--app-namespace=	Root namespace for generated classes. Defaults to the application's namespace (e.g. App\).
--force	Overwrite existing files without prompting.
--skip-provider	Skip generating App\Providers\BackupManagerServiceProvider. Use this if you already have one or want to bind interfaces manually.
--skip-registration	Skip auto-registering the provider in bootstrap/providers.php. You will need to register it manually.

What It Generates

The command copies stub files from the package's resources/stubs/ directory into your application, applying namespace transformations.

Inertia Stack (--stack=inertia)

Generates Inertia.js responder classes that return page-level props:

File	Purpose
Responders/BackupDestinationsUiResponder.php	List, create, edit, test, and delete storage destinations
Responders/BackupSchedulesUiResponder.php	Manage backup schedules
Responders/BackupsUiResponder.php	List and download backups
Responders/PerformBackupUiResponder.php	Initialize and monitor backup runs
Responders/CleanupSchedulesUiResponder.php	Manage cleanup schedules
Responders/SchedulesUiResponder.php	View all schedules

Custom Stack (--stack=custom)

Generates stub responder classes with empty method bodies for you to implement.

Service Provider

Unless --skip-provider is used, generates App\Providers\BackupManagerServiceProvider that binds each responder contract to its implementation.

Namespace Transformation

All stub files use the placeholder namespace VendorName\. During scaffolding, this is replaced with your application's namespace (or the value of --app-namespace).

// Stub
namespace VendorName\BackupManager\Responders;

// After scaffolding (default)
namespace App\BackupManager\Responders;

// After scaffolding with --app-namespace=Acme\Blog
namespace Acme\Blog\BackupManager\Responders;

Bootstrap Registration

By default, the command appends App\Providers\BackupManagerServiceProvider::class to bootstrap/providers.php. It will not duplicate an existing entry. Use --skip-registration to disable this behavior.

Example: Custom Path

php artisan backup-manager:install --stack=inertia --path=app/Http/BackupManager

Example: Non-Interactive

php artisan backup-manager:install --stack=inertia --force --no-interaction
