Slight error in Laravel.com documentation

[brada1703]

Hey guys,

I just wanted to correct a slight error in the documentation.

On this page: https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/artisan#writing-output, under You may use the newLine method to display a blank line

It states:

$this->newLine();

// Write three blank lines...
$this->newLine(3);

Note that this will result in a BadMethodCallException.

It should state, instead:

$this->output->newLine();

// Write three blank lines...
$this->output->newLine(3);

This gives you the correct behaviour.

Thanks :)

Hey there,

Not an error -- that feature hasn't been released yet. Check back tomorrow on the next Laravel release. https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/34754
