Load bootstrap_cli.php of a plugin

What you did

In documentation (https://book.cakephp.org/3.0/en/console-and-shells/plugin-shell.html#loading-plugins) I found that to load bootstrap_cli of a plugin I must use bin/cake plugin load --cli MyPlugin, that add
Plugin::load('MyPlugin');
but it didn't load it.

That bake command modifies the applicationbootstrap_cli.php instead of the general one. It does not change how plugin bootstrapping works.

If plugins have cli only bootstrap code, it is up to each plugin to conditionally load it as necessary. Perhaps in the future plugins will have a more formalized pattern for this.

Is there a way that when I use command
bin/cake bake template Features --prefix Admin -t MyTheme
it load the plugin bootstrap_cli where I have setted this event ?

EventManager::instance()->on(
    'Bake.beforeRender.Controller.controller',
    function (Event $event) {
        $view = $event->getSubject();
            // add the login and logout actions to the Users controller
            $view->viewVars['actions'] = [
                'index',
                'view',
                'add',
                'edit',
                'delete',
                'online'
            ];
    }
);

@igorfelluga I updated your post to properly highlight the code. Please see the format and add it yourself for future posts like this.

@igorfelluga Of course there is.

// in YourPlugin/config/bootstrap.php

// other code

if (PHP_SAPI === 'cli') {
    require __DIR__ . '/bootstrap_cli.php';
}

@markstory I tried implementing your suggestion to make "bake" use my plugin's bootstrap_cli but it didn't work.

My plugin is being loaded here:

app/config/bootstrap.php

// rest of the file
Plugin::load('CoderThemes', ['bootstrap' => true, 'routes' => true]);

app/plugins/CoderThemes/config/bootstrap.php

// this is not being reached
if (PHP_SAPI === 'cli') {
	require __DIR__ . '/bootstrap_cli.php';
}

The code above (plugin/boostrap) never get executed when running bin/cake bake controller Whatever
I even tried to add -t CoderThemes but still, nothing happened.

CakePHP version: 3.6.6
Bake version: 1.8.1
OS: Windows 10
Server: Xampp

Am I doing something wrong?

Does your plugin's bootstrap file run at all?
