Using PsySH (GitHub) as the Yii shell

• Issue the following commands from the command line in your Yii application directory:
  • chmod +x shell
  • mkdir extensions/yiishell
  • wget -O extensions/yiishell/psysh psysh.org/psysh
  • chmod +x extensions/yiishell/psysh
• Copy the file init.php below to extensions/yiishell/init.php and update any paths to work with your application configuration
• Copy the file config.php below to extensions/yiishell/config.php. Change or add to the config array with the options you'd like to use (available options)
• Now you can start PsySH with the command extensions/yiishell/psysh extensions/yiishell/init.php --config extensions/yiishell/config.php
  • Alternatively, for an easy way to start the shell, copy the shell script below to your application directory, then run ./shell

shell

#!/bin/sh -x

./extensions/yiishell/psysh ./extensions/yiishell/init.php --config ./extensions/yiishell/config.php
