Framework: [5.7] Command "dump-server" is not defined.

Created on 23 Aug 2018 · 8Comments · Source: laravel/framework

I've updated my Laravel 5.6.34 project to 5.7.0 and wanted try to use the Symfony Dump-server the adding of which was announced in the official Laravel 5.7 Release notes.

After the Laravel version's updating according to this quide, I ran the following command to test the dump-server running, as it was written in the docs:

php artisan dump-server

And got the error message in console:

Command "dump-server" is not defined.

Is it a bug of Laravel or I missed the sence of the release notes text and dump-server hasn't added to the Laravel's core and it would be added manually via composer? If it is, change please the release notes text for the correct perception of information.

You'll need to add the package as a dependency yourself if you'd like to use it. See laravel/laravel: https://github.com/laravel/laravel/blob/develop/composer.json#L14.

@GrahamCampbell thanks a lot. Could you modify the upgrading docs with this information?

There are usually some late additions that are not covered in the upgrade guide until it is released.

The upgrading docs do say look at the diff yourself, at the end. Also, I'd kinda argue this isn't needed to 'upgrade" and app.

I think this is a important release in the laravel 5.7. So maybe it should be modify in upgrading docs

Make sure you follow the very last part of the upgrade guide, the Miscellaneous section. This will cover a lot of the smaller changes not directly addressed in the upgrade guide.

You can also check out an article I wrote about addressing these miscellaneous differences.

I totally agree with @Pashaster12 and @hanbz.
dump-server is an important and "advertized" change in Laravel 5.7, so I sincerely expect to read, in the upgrade guide, at least a simple statement saying "add beyondcode/laravel-dump-server to your require-dev dependencies". Why have I to dive into diffs and PRs?
