📝 Usage

Basic Usage

php artisan app:cleanup

This will prompt for confirmation before running the cleanup process.

Skip Confirmation

php artisan app:cleanup --force

This will run the cleanup process without asking for confirmation.

🔧 Customization

Adding or Removing Commands

You can easily customize which commands are run by modifying the $commands array in the handle() method:

$commands = [
    'Clear Route Cache' => 'route:clear',
    'Clear Configuration Cache' => 'config:clear',
    // Add or remove commands here
];

Customizing the Output

You can customize the header and footer boxes by modifying the strings in the handle() method:

$this->info('╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════╗');
$this->info('║                                                 ║');
$this->info('║         YOUR CUSTOM HEADER HERE                 ║');
$this->info('║                                                 ║');
$this->info('╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════╝');

Changing the Command Name

If you want to change the command name, modify the $signature property:

protected $signature = 'your:command-name {--force : Force the operation without confirmation}';
