Deploy command missing from common recipe

[thinkcube-solutions]

• Deployer version: 7.0.0
• Deployment OS: MacOS 12.5.1

When running dep init from a fresh install of Deployer 7 and selecting php as the configuration type and the third recipe option common the deploy command is not available. When you run dep and look at all of the available commands it does not show in the list and is reported as undefined if you attempt to run dep deploy. If you however select Laravel as the recipe, the deploy command is available. Shouldn't the deploy command be available in a common recipe?

Thank you!

I had a hard time figuring out a similar issue yesterday and I wonder if the same problem you had: if there is no deploy.php, I get exactly the same behaviour you described - the deploy command is missing:

  Command "deploy" is not defined.

For me it works though even if I add the common recipe:

bash-5.1# printf "<?php \nnamespace Deployer; \nrequire 'recipe/common.php';\n" > deploy.php
bash-5.1# cat deploy.php
<?php
namespace Deployer;
recipe/common.php';

So maybe you did not have a deploy.php instead when running dep?

if there is no deploy.php, I get exactly the same behaviour you described - the deploy command is missing:

This is exactly how Deployer should work. Task deploy is defined inside a recipe. No recipe - no deploy.

As @sgrossberndt showed it's not a bug - closing.

Well, this issue as reported by @thinkcube-solutions was although his deploy.php did contain the require 'recipe/common.php'; part he still did not get the deploy commands, only when using require 'recipe/laravel.php';. I am unsure if there could be a difference on a Mac, still it would be good if @thinkcube-solutions could verify whether this is solved for him/her as well.
