This article will guide you how to create Blade Template through the Artisan Console . php artisan make:view

2.Get started

1. Create Commands: MakeView

   php artisan make:command MakeView

2. Logic code that creates the view
   
   namespace AppConsoleCommands; use IlluminateConsoleCommand; use File; class MakeView extends Command { /** * The name and signature of the console command. * * @var string */ protected $signature = 'make:view {view}'; /** * The console command description. * * @var string */ protected $description = 'Create a new blade template.'; /** * Execute the console command. * * @return mixed */ public function handle() { $view = $this->argument('view'); $path = $this->viewPath($view); $this->createDir($path); if (File::exists($path)) { $this->error("View {$path} already exists!"); return; } File::put($path, $path); $this->info("View {$path} created."); } /** * Get the view full path. * * @param $view * @return string */ private function viewPath($view) { $view = str_replace('.', '/', $view) . '.blade.php'; return "resources/views/{$view}"; } /** * Create view directory if not exists. * * @param $path */ private function createDir($path) { $dir = dirname($path); if (!file_exists($dir)) { mkdir($dir, 0777, true); } } }

   namespace AppConsoleCommands;   use IlluminateConsoleCommand; use File; class MakeView extends Command { /**   * The name and signature of the console command.   *   * @var string   */ protected $signature = 'make:view {view}';   /**   * The console command description.   *   * @var string   */ protected $description = 'Create a new blade template.';   /**   * Execute the console command.   *   * @return mixed   */ public function handle() {      $view = $this->argument('view');        $path = $this->viewPath($view);        $this->createDir($path);        if (File::exists($path)) {          $this->error("View {$path} already exists!");          return;      }        File::put($path, $path);        $this->info("View {$path} created."); }   /**   * Get the view full path.   *   * @param $view   * @return string   */ private function viewPath($view) {      $view = str_replace('.', '/', $view) . '.blade.php';      return "resources/views/{$view}"; }   /**   * Create view directory if not exists.   *   * @param $path   */ private function createDir($path) {      $dir = dirname($path);        if (!file_exists($dir)) {          mkdir($dir, 0777, true);      } }   }

3. Registered in App / Console / Kernel
