Create custom command CMS

1. **Create the command class** (extends `SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand`)
2. **Register the command** in your package’s `on_start` method using the `ConsoleApplication` binding.

—

### ✅ Step-by-step guide

#### 📁 Folder structure (example):

packages/
└── your_package_handle/
    ├── controller.php
    └── src/
        └── Command/
            └── GenerateFeedCommand.php

—

### 🧱 1. Create the Command Class

**File:** `packages/your_package_handle/src/Command/GenerateFeedCommand.php`

<?php

namespace YourPackageNamespaceCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class GenerateFeedCommand extends Command
{
    protected static $defaultName = 'feed:generate';

    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setDescription('Generates the product feed.');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        // Your logic here
        $output->writeln('<info>Feed generated successfully!</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

> 📝 Replace `YourPackageNamespace` with your actual package namespace.

—

### 🧩 2. Register the Command in `controller.php`

use ConcreteCoreConsoleApplication as ConsoleApplication;
use YourPackageNamespaceCommandGenerateFeedCommand;

public function on_start()
{
    $this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
        $cli->add($this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class));
        return $cli;
    });
}

—

### ⚙️ 3. Add Autoloading in `composer.json`

In your package’s `composer.json`:

"autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
        "YourPackageNamespace\": "src/"
    }
}

Then run:

composer dump-autoload

—

### ✅ 4. Test Your Command

Run this in your Concrete CMS project root:

./concrete/bin/concrete list

You should see `feed:generate` listed.

Run it:

./concrete/bin/concrete feed:generate

—

If the command still doesn’t show:

– Check if your package is installed and enabled.
– Ensure there's no typo in namespace or command registration.
– Double check `composer dump-autoload` was run from the correct path (`packages/your_package_handle/`).

Would you like me to generate a ready-made example package with this command included?

Class "CommandGenerateFeedCommand" does not exist

means your namespace or autoloading for the command class is not correctly set up.

—

## ✅ Fix Instructions

You need to:

1. **Correct the namespace and file location**
2. **Ensure the command is autoloaded via `composer.json`**
3. **Update the `use` statement**

—

### ✅ 1. Correct File Path & Namespace

Create this file:

**`packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/GenerateFeedCommand.php`**

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class GenerateFeedCommand extends Command
{
    protected static $defaultName = 'feed:generate';

    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setDescription('Generates the Google Merchant feed.');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Feed generation completed successfully.</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

—

### ✅ 2. Register Autoload in `composer.json`

In your package root (`packages/shopping_feed_manager/composer.json`), add:

{
  "autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
      "Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "src/"
    }
  }
}

Then run in terminal:

cd packages/shopping_feed_manager
composer dump-autoload

—

### ✅ 3. Update `use` Statement in `controller.php`

Change this:

use CommandGenerateFeedCommand;

To this:

use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand;

—

### ✅ 4. Clear Cache

After making changes, run:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache

—

### ✅ 5. Verify Command Exists

Run this:

./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep feed

You should see:

feed:generate   Generates the Google Merchant feed.

—

Let me know if you want to pass options like `–id=3` to this command or save log to database.

—

### ✅ Solution: Define autoload in the *main* project’s `composer.json`

Since Concrete CMS loads packages via the main application, do this instead:

—

### ✅ Step 1: Use correct namespace structure

Ensure your file is located at:

/var/www/html/packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/GenerateFeedCommand.php

And starts with:

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

✅ You’ve already done this part — good.

—

### ✅ Step 2: Edit the main `composer.json`

Open:

/var/www/html/composer.json

Find the `"autoload"` section and add this:

"autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
        "Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/"
    }
}

—

### ✅ Step 3: Dump autoload from project root

Now run this from the **project root**, not inside the package:

cd /var/www/html
composer dump-autoload

—

### ✅ Step 4: Clear Concrete CMS cache

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache

—

### ✅ Step 5: Test command

./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep feed

Expected output:

feed:generate  Generates the Google Merchant feed.

—

Let me know if you want this command to accept arguments like `–slug=demo` or log its results.

—

## ✅ Checklist to Debug Why Command Isn’t Detected

### 1. ✅ Confirm File Exists
Make sure this file **physically exists**:

packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/GenerateFeedCommand.php

And contains:

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class GenerateFeedCommand extends Command
{
    protected static $defaultName = 'feed:generate';

    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setDescription('Generates the Google Merchant feed.');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Feed generation completed.</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

—

### 2. ✅ Correct `use` Statement in `controller.php`

Inside your package controller:

use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand;

Not:

use CommandGenerateFeedCommand;

—

### 3. ✅ Add `dump-autoload` log line (optional)

Add this line **just above `$cli->add(…)`** to ensure it’s hitting that line:

Log::info("Registering GenerateFeedCommand");

Then check the logs:

tail -f application/files/logs/*.log

If this doesn’t appear when running:

./concrete/bin/concrete list

Then the code inside `on_start()` isn't being hit — maybe the package is not **installed/enabled**.

—

### 4. ✅ Check if package is enabled

In dashboard, go to:
**Dashboard → Extend Concrete**

Ensure `Shopping Feed Manager` is **installed and enabled**.

If not, run:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-install shopping_feed_manager

—

### 5. ✅ Add Debug Output in CLI Extension

Update this to confirm the command is loading:

$this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
    Log::info("Adding GenerateFeedCommand to CLI");
    $cli->add($this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class));
    return $cli;
});

Then re-run:

./concrete/bin/concrete list

And check logs again:

tail -f application/files/logs/*.log

—

### ✅ Final Confirmation Command

./concrete/bin/concrete feed:generate

You should see:

Feed generation completed.

—

Let me know what your `GenerateFeedCommand.php` contains — I can confirm if the class is valid.

There are no commands defined in the "feed" namespace.

admin1@concrete-cms-web:/var/www/html$

There are no commands defined in the "feed" namespace."

it means the CLI doesn’t recognize the `feed:generate` command at all — most likely because it's not being registered properly.

—

### ✅ Let's isolate and fix it step-by-step

—

## 🔍 Step 1: Confirm `GenerateFeedCommand.php` content

Please confirm this exact file exists:

/var/www/html/packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/GenerateFeedCommand.php

And it contains **this exact code**:

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class GenerateFeedCommand extends Command
{
    protected static $defaultName = 'feed:generate';

    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setDescription('Generates the Google Merchant feed.');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Feed generated successfully!</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

—

## 🔍 Step 2: Confirm this `use` line is in `controller.php`

In your package controller (`controller.php`):

use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand;

—

## 🔍 Step 3: Add log to check if it’s being hit

In `controller.php`, inside the `on_start()` method, temporarily add:

Log::info("✅ Registering GenerateFeedCommand...");
$this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
    Log::info("✅ Inside CLI extender");
    $cli->add($this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class));
    return $cli;
});

Then run:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list

Now check the log file:

tail -n 50 application/files/logs/*.log

👉 **If these logs do not appear**, your package might not be **bootstrapping at all**.

—

## ✅ Final Check: Is the package installed?

Run this command to list installed packages:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-list

If `shopping_feed_manager` is **not installed**, install it:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-install shopping_feed_manager

If already installed but old, upgrade it:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-update shopping_feed_manager

Then:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep feed

—

## ✅ What to share if still broken

If it's still not working, please share:

– Output of `ls -l packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/`
– Output of `grep -i generatefeedcommand packages/shopping_feed_manager/controller.php`
– Any log output from `application/files/logs/` after running `concrete list`

That way I can spot exactly where the issue is.

admin1@concrete-cms-web:/var/www/html$ grep -i generatefeedcommand packages/shopping_feed_manager/controller.php
use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand;
Log::info("Registering GenerateFeedCommand");
$cli->add($this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class));
admin1@concrete-cms-web:/var/www/html$

✅ `GenerateFeedCommand.php` **exists**
✅ Namespace and `use` statement are **correct**
✅ You have logging (`Registering GenerateFeedCommand`) **before `$cli->add(…)`**

But you are **not seeing anything in the logs**, and `feed:generate` still does **not appear in the command list**.

This strongly suggests the **`on_start()` is not being triggered**, which happens when **the package is installed but not enabled**, or **you’re testing changes without upgrading the package**.

—

## ✅ Final Fixes Checklist

### ✅ 1. Reinstall or upgrade the package

From the project root:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-list

If `shopping_feed_manager` is **not listed**, install it:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-install shopping_feed_manager

If it is listed but may have changed:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package-update shopping_feed_manager

Then clear the cache:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache

And try again:

./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep feed

—

### ✅ 2. Check that `controller.php` is in this path:

packages/shopping_feed_manager/controller.php

Not accidentally in `src/` or nested.

—

### ✅ 3. Optional: Add `boot()` to verify load

Try replacing `on_start()` with `boot()` to confirm your class is being loaded:

public function boot()
{
    Log::info("🚀 ShoppingFeedManager booted");
}

Then:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list
tail -n 50 application/files/logs/*.log

If `boot()` also doesn't log anything, it’s 100% a problem with the package not being installed or updated.

—

If you do all the above and still don’t see `feed:generate`, I can give you a working minimal test package (`.zip`) to confirm environment setup. Just let me know.

Command "c5:package-list" is not defined.

Did you mean one of these?
c5:boards:refresh
c5:clear-cache
c5:compare-schema
c5:config
c5:database:charset:set
c5:database:foreignkey:fix
c5:denylist:clear

c5:theme:install
c5:translate-package
c5:uninstall-package
c5:update
c5:update-package
c5:user-group:bulk-assign-users

—

### ✅ Check if your package is installed

Instead of `c5:package-list`, use:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:info

This will show **installed packages** at the bottom.

Look for:

Installed Packages:
 - Shopping Feed Manager (shopping_feed_manager)

—

## ✅ If the package is NOT installed

Install it:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:install shopping_feed_manager

—

## 🔁 If already installed, update it

To apply your updated `controller.php` logic (e.g., CLI registration):

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:update shopping_feed_manager

Then clear cache:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache

—

## ✅ Final test

./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep feed

You should now see:

feed:generate  Generates the Google Merchant feed.

—

Let me know if you see your package listed in `c5:info`, and I can confirm next steps.

✅ Your package **Shopping Feed Manager (1.0.0)** is installed
✅ So `on_start()` **should be firing**, and CLI command registration should work

Yet `feed:generate` still doesn’t appear, which means the issue is likely **inside the `GenerateFeedCommand` class registration or construction**.

Let’s **verify the autoload and instantiation fully works**:

—

## ✅ Final Diagnosis Steps

### 🧪 Step 1: Dump class map to verify it's autoloaded

Run this from your project root:

vendor/bin/classmap-generator packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/

You should see:

Found class: ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand

If not, something is wrong with the file path or namespace.

—

### 🧪 Step 2: Add a simple test command and debug instantiation

In `controller.php`, modify the `on_start()` to debug instantiation:

use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand;
use ConcreteCoreConsoleConsoleAwareInterface;

public function on_start()
{
    Log::info("📦 on_start triggered in Shopping Feed Manager");

    $this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
        Log::info("⚙️ Inside CLI extender");
        try {
            $command = $this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class);
            Log::info("✅ GenerateFeedCommand instantiated");
            $cli->add($command);
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            Log::error("❌ Failed to instantiate command: " . $e->getMessage());
        }
        return $cli;
    });
}

Then:

./concrete/bin/concrete list

And:

tail -n 50 application/files/logs/*.log

—

### ✅ Step 3: If you see an error like `Unresolvable dependency`, change constructor

Make sure your `GenerateFeedCommand` **has no constructor dependencies**, or inject them properly.

This works:

public function __construct()
{
    parent::__construct();
}

This fails if dependencies are not bound:

public function __construct(MyService $service)

—

### ✅ Step 4: If logs show success but command still missing

Try renaming the command from:

protected static $defaultName = 'feed:generate';

To:

protected function configure()
{
    $this->setName('feed:generate');
    $this->setDescription('...');
}

Some Concrete CMS versions (esp. pre-9.5) may not support `static $defaultName`.

—

Once you’ve tested the above, let me know:

1. Do logs show the command instantiating or erroring?
2. Does the command appear in `./concrete/bin/concrete list`?

I’ll help you go all the way till this is 100% working.

Since everything else is in place, and the command is **still not showing**, the final root causes are almost certainly one of:

—

## 🔥 Top Remaining Causes

### ✅ 1. `GenerateFeedCommand` class is failing to instantiate

Please **wrap the instantiation in a `try-catch` block** to log any hidden errors.

In `controller.php`, replace this block:

$cli->add($this->app->make(GenerateFeedCommand::class));

with:

try {
    Log::info("🛠 Attempting to load GenerateFeedCommand...");
    $command = $this->app->make(ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandGenerateFeedCommand::class);
    Log::info("✅ Command instantiated: " . get_class($command));
    $cli->add($command);
} catch (Throwable $e) {
    Log::error("❌ Could not register GenerateFeedCommand: " . $e->getMessage());
}

Then:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list
tail -n 100 application/files/logs/*.log

This will **tell us exactly** why the command is failing — either:

– Class not found
– Dependency error
– Registration silently failing

—

### ✅ 2. Make sure your `GenerateFeedCommand` looks like this

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class GenerateFeedCommand extends Command
{
    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setName('feed:generate');
        $this->setDescription('Generates the Google Merchant feed.');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Feed generated!</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

> ✅ Use `$this->setName()` instead of `protected static $defaultName` for full Concrete CMS 9.4 compatibility.

—

### ✅ 3. If still broken — create a test dummy command

Make a second dummy command to test if *any* command works:

**File:** `packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/DummyCommand.php`

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class DummyCommand extends Command
{
    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setName('dummy:test')
             ->setDescription('Test dummy command');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Dummy command executed</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

Then register it like this:

use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand;

$this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
    $cli->add(new DummyCommand());
    return $cli;
});

Then test:

./concrete/bin/concrete dummy:test

If **this works**, the issue is isolated to `GenerateFeedCommand`. If **this also fails**, the issue is likely in your registration logic.

—

Let me know what the logs show after wrapping it in `try-catch` and if you'd like me to build a working test `.zip` package for comparison.

> 🟥 `Attempted to load class "DummyCommand" from namespace "ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand"`
> ✅ But Concrete CMS can't find that class — it’s **not autoloaded**.

—

## ✅ Solution: Fix the autoload setup

### ✅ Step 1: Check file path and name

Ensure this file exists:

/var/www/html/packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/DummyCommand.php

And it starts with:

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

—

### ✅ Step 2: Confirm project-level `composer.json` has this:

In `/var/www/html/composer.json`:

"autoload": {
  "psr-4": {
    "Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/"
  }
}

Then from `/var/www/html/` (project root), run:

composer dump-autoload

—

### ✅ Step 3: Clear cache and retest

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list

Then try:

./concrete/bin/concrete dummy:test

—

### ✅ Optional: Log confirmation

In `DummyCommand.php`, temporarily add:

public function __construct()
{
    Log::info("🟢 DummyCommand constructor called");
    parent::__construct();
}

Then run again and check:

tail -n 50 application/files/logs/*.log

—

## ✅ Summary of What to Do Now

1. Confirm file path: `src/Command/DummyCommand.php`
2. Confirm correct namespace in that file
3. Confirm project-level autoload path includes:
`"Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/"`
4. Run `composer dump-autoload` from **project root**
5. Clear cache and retry the command

—

Let me know once you run `composer dump-autoload` and `dummy:test` — if that works, your original `GenerateFeedCommand` will work too.

There are no commands defined in the "dummy" namespace.

This time you're seeing:

> ❌ "There are no commands defined in the `dummy` namespace"

This means:

✅ The `DummyCommand` class is now **found and autoloaded**
❌ But it’s **not being registered with the CLI** — meaning the `add()` method didn’t execute

—

## ✅ Final Fix: Make sure registration code runs

In your package's `controller.php`, you must be registering the command like this:

### ✅ Working Code for Registration (inside `on_start()`):

use ConcreteCoreConsoleApplication as ConsoleApplication;
use ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand;

public function on_start()
{
    Log::info("🛠 Registering DummyCommand...");

    $this->app->extend(ConsoleApplication::class, function (ConsoleApplication $cli) {
        Log::info("⚙️ Inside CLI extender");

        try {
            $cli->add(new DummyCommand());
            Log::info("✅ DummyCommand added");
        } catch (Throwable $e) {
            Log::error("❌ Failed to add DummyCommand: " . $e->getMessage());
        }

        return $cli;
    });
}

Then run:

composer dump-autoload
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep dummy
tail -n 100 application/files/logs/*.log

—

### 🔍 If no log lines appear, then:

It means your `on_start()` isn’t being triggered — possible causes:

1. You renamed `on_start()` to `boot()` but didn’t update logic
2. You didn't upgrade the package after changes

Fix it by running:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:update shopping_feed_manager
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache

—

## ✅ What you should see now

1. In the logs:

🛠 Registering DummyCommand...
   ⚙️ Inside CLI extender
   ✅ DummyCommand added

2. In the CLI:

./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep dummy

Output:

dummy:test  Test dummy command

3. Running the command:

./concrete/bin/concrete dummy:test

Output:

Dummy command executed

—

Let me know the output of your logs (`tail`) and `list | grep dummy` after above steps. Once this works, your `feed:generate` command will also work the same way.

Let’s **zero in and fix this for good**. Here's a reliable step-by-step:

—

## ✅ Step-by-Step: Confirm `on_start()` is Executing

### ✅ 1. Add logging at the very top of `on_start()` in `controller.php`:

public function on_start()
{
    Log::info("🔥 on_start() of Shopping Feed Manager is running");

    $this->app->extend(ConcreteCoreConsoleApplication::class, function ($cli) {
        Log::info("⚙️ Inside ConsoleApplication extender");

        try {
            $cli->add(new ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand());
            Log::info("✅ DummyCommand registered");
        } catch (Throwable $e) {
            Log::error("❌ Failed to register DummyCommand: " . $e->getMessage());
        }

        return $cli;
    });
}

—

### ✅ 2. Re-run everything cleanly

composer dump-autoload
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:update shopping_feed_manager
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list

—

### ✅ 3. Then check the logs:

tail -n 100 application/files/logs/*.log

—

## 🔍 Based on logs, here’s what to do:

| Log Output Found | Action |
|——————|——–|
| ✅ `🔥 on_start()…` AND `✅ DummyCommand registered` | 🎉 It's working — now `dummy:test` will appear |
| ❌ `🔥 on_start()…` missing | ❗ `on_start()` isn't being run → your package may not be updated |
| ❌ `✅ DummyCommand registered` missing | ⚠️ Command registration failed — error message in log will say why |

—

## 🔁 If `on_start()` isn’t running at all:

Run this **to force re-initialize the package**:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:update shopping_feed_manager

Then:

./concrete/bin/concrete list

—

Once you confirm `🔥 on_start()` log appears, the rest will work. Let me know the **latest logs**, and I’ll confirm the exact fix or next step.

> ❌ The command class is **still not being autoloaded properly** despite `composer dump-autoload`.

Let’s **confirm and fix that now**.

—

## ✅ Fix Autoloading + Command Instantiation

### ✅ 1. Confirm file structure and namespace match

Check:

File path:
  packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/Command/DummyCommand.php

Namespace inside the file:
  namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

Class should begin like this:

<?php

namespace ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommand;

use SymfonyComponentConsoleCommandCommand;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleInputInputInterface;
use SymfonyComponentConsoleOutputOutputInterface;

class DummyCommand extends Command
{
    protected function configure()
    {
        $this->setName('dummy:test');
        $this->setDescription('Test dummy command');
    }

    protected function execute(InputInterface $input, OutputInterface $output)
    {
        $output->writeln('<info>Dummy command executed</info>');
        return Command::SUCCESS;
    }
}

—

### ✅ 2. Update `controller.php` to reference class **by full namespace**

Replace your `$cli->add(…)` with:

$this->app->extend(ConcreteCoreConsoleApplication::class, function ($cli) {
    Log::info("⚙️ Inside ConsoleApplication extender");

    try {
        $command = new ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand();
        $cli->add($command);
        Log::info("✅ DummyCommand registered successfully");
    } catch (Throwable $e) {
        Log::error("❌ DummyCommand registration failed: " . $e->getMessage());
    }

    return $cli;
});

—

### ✅ 3. From project root, rebuild everything

composer dump-autoload
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:package:update shopping_feed_manager
./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep dummy

—

### ✅ 4. Check logs again

tail -n 100 application/files/logs/*.log

> ❗ If log says **Class not found**, autoloading is still broken.
> ✅ If log says **DummyCommand registered successfully**, the command **must show up**.

—

## ✅ If it still fails

Add this quick sanity test in your `on_start()`:

if (class_exists(ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand::class)) {
    Log::info("✅ DummyCommand class is found via class_exists");
} else {
    Log::error("❌ DummyCommand class not found via class_exists");
}

That will definitively tell us if autoloading works.

—

Let me know the latest `logs/*.log` result. Once `DummyCommand` shows up, `GenerateFeedCommand` will too — exact same process.

new ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand()

and the command **still doesn’t show**, it **confirms one thing**:

> 🚨 Your command class isn't being autoloaded despite correct namespace and dump-autoload.

—

## ✅ Fix This for Good: Manual `require_once` (Prove Autoloading Issue)

Let’s **bypass autoloading** for now to *prove the root issue*.

In your `controller.php`, just above the `new DummyCommand()` line:

require_once __DIR__ . '/src/Command/DummyCommand.php';

$this->app->extend(ConcreteCoreConsoleApplication::class, function ($cli) {
    Log::info("⚙️ Manual load of DummyCommand.php");
    try {
        $command = new ConcretePackageShoppingFeedManagerCommandDummyCommand();
        $cli->add($command);
        Log::info("✅ DummyCommand registered manually");
    } catch (Throwable $e) {
        Log::error("❌ Manual DummyCommand registration failed: " . $e->getMessage());
    }
    return $cli;
});

Then run:

./concrete/bin/concrete c5:clear-cache
./concrete/bin/concrete list | grep dummy

—

### ✅ If this works (command shows up):

🎯 You’ve **proven the namespace is correct**, but **autoloading is NOT working**.

> ✅ At this point, we’ll **fix autoload permanently** with one of two options below.

—

## 🛠 Fix Autoloading Permanently (Once Proven)

### Option 1: Register your package inside main `/composer.json` (you likely already tried this)

"autoload": {
  "psr-4": {
    "Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "packages/shopping_feed_manager/src/"
  }
}

Then from `/var/www/html`:

composer dump-autoload

—

### Option 2: Add `composer.json` directly inside your package

Create this file:

**`packages/shopping_feed_manager/composer.json`**

{
  "autoload": {
    "psr-4": {
      "Concrete\Package\ShoppingFeedManager\": "src/"
    }
  }
}

Then run:

cd packages/shopping_feed_manager
composer dump-autoload

And in your main project, include this via the `wikimedia/composer-merge-plugin` if needed (some setups require it).

—

Let me know:

– Did `require_once` work and allow the command to appear?
– Do you want me to zip a **fully working test package** for reference?

Once the command appears via `require_once`, we’ll patch autoloading once and for all.
