Unable to get the siteUrl from a Console Request

[andrelopez]

Description

I'm unable to the get the baseSite url within a console request. This stops working in v3.0.13

use craft\helpers\UrlHelper;
use Craft;
....
// Returns '/my-url'
$url = UrlHelper::siteUrl('my-url);

// Returns '/'
$baseUrl = Craft::getAlias("@web");

// Returns '/'
$baseUrl = UrlHelper::baseSiteUrl();

Steps to reproduce

1. Call $baseUrl = UrlHelper::baseSiteUrl(); in a console request

Additional info

• Craft version: 3.0.13.2
• PHP version: 7.1.7
• Database driver & version: Mysql

What is your primary site’s Base URL set to? Sounds like it might just be set to /.

Hi @brandonkelly

I have added this to my init function of the plugin:

public function init()
    {
        $url = UrlHelper::siteUrl('my-url');
        Craft::dd($url);
        ....
    }

When I go to my dashboard in the browser I got:
'http://craft3.test/my-url'

The dashboard value is right but when I go to my console and try to run the craft command I got this:

My primary site has "@web/" in the baseUrl

Best,

If I set the my baseUrl to http://craft3.test it works.

So the @web alias does not work in console commands?

Correct, @web is just whatever the URL is that was requested by the browser. If it’s a console request, there is no requested URL.
