Magento 2 Code Generator Tool

Installation

Option1: Downloading .phar

wget https://github.com/staempfli/magento2-code-generator/releases/download/<version>/mg2-codegen.phar
chmod +x ./mg2-codegen.phar
# use the command globally on your system
sudo mv ./mg2-codegen.phar /usr/local/bin/mg2-codegen

Option2: Using Composer

Install globally on your system with the following command:

composer global require "staempfli/magento2-code-generator"

Just make sure you have the composer bin dir in your $PATH. The default value is ~/.composer/vendor/bin/

Note: if you have dependency problems with other projects installed globally, we recommend you to use consolidation/cgr

Usage

0. List all templates: mg2-codegen template:list

1. Generate template: mg2-codegen template:generate <template>

NOTE:

• template:generate command must be executed on the module root folder where the registration.php file is. You can also use option --root-dir to specify this path, if you execute it from a different location.

• When creating a new module, you must create first the module parent folder and execute the command from there.
