leaf 命令

常用示例

说明

leaf is the official command-line companion for the Leaf PHP micro-framework. It scaffolds new applications from curated presets, installs first-party modules and Composer packages, runs a local development server, and exposes an interactive shell for debugging and exploration. The tool wraps composer and the PHP built-in web server, removing the boilerplate of project setup and module wiring. Presets such as --api and --mvc generate a ready-to-run directory layout with routing, environment loading, and module bindings already configured. When run in --watch mode, leaf serve restarts the server on file changes, providing a fast inner-loop for development. leaf interact boots the application and drops the user into a Tinker-style REPL where routes, models, and services can be invoked directly.
