Horizon: Display `artisan horizon` command description in artisan list

[olavski]

It is not clear from running php artisan that the command php artisan horizon is available and that it will start all of your configured workers.

The list shows description for sub-commands such as horizon:continue but it does not explain what horizon itself does.

At the moment you have to check the Horizon documentation website to find that out, but it would be good to show this in the artisan list.

$ php artisan
 horizon
  horizon:assets            Re-publish the Horizon assets
  horizon:continue          Instruct the master supervisor to continue processing jobs
  horizon:list              List all of the deployed machines
  horizon:pause             Pause the master supervisor
  horizon:purge             Terminate any rogue Horizon processes
  horizon:snapshot          Store a snapshot of the queue metrics
  horizon:supervisors       List all of the supervisors
  horizon:terminate         Terminate the master supervisor so it can be restarted

Thanks for building a great project!

Hmm, you're correct. We might want to change this.

Or we could look at supporting commands without a : notation in the framework itself.

Sorry if this is a bit off topic.

With Horizon, Nova, Spark, Scout and other packages the artisan list gets very long.
My app's artisan list has almost 200 commands now, so it would also be good have an option to only show my own commands from App/Console/Comands.

[driesvints]

@olavski you can do that with the list command: php artisan list horizon

[olavski]

@driesvints Ok, I meant more the reverse of that, so list everything apart from Nova,Spark,Horizon and default Laravel commands, so only show the commands I have built that are specific for this app.

But don't worry about it for now, this is getting a bit off topic. I'll see if I can create a package to do this instead.

Thanks! :)

@olavski Perhaps put an issue on https://github.com/laravel/ideas for a --simple output showing only the core things you care about (App namespaced stuff)

[olavski]

@alexbowers Thanks for the suggestion. I'll do that!

@driesvints This can be closed :)
