CLI Interaction

stry uses lpod to work with its containers, much like Laravel Sail but for Podman.

lpod stry up                     # start
lpod stry shell                  # open a shell (alias: bash)
lpod stry tinker                 # Laravel Tinker
lpod stry artisan migrate        # or: lpod stry a migrate

stry's Artisan commands

Run these with lpod stry artisan ..., or the shorter lpod stry a ....

Installing and upgrading

Command	Description
app:install	Migrate, seed the roles, set up the search indexes and offer to create the S3 buckets and a super-admin. Safe to rerun
app:update	Run the migrations, clear the settings cache and restart the workers, after pulling a new release
app:update --scout	The same, and sync the search indexes

To create a user without prompts, for example from an installer, pass the details as options and the password through stdin, so it stays out of the process list:

printf '%s' "$PASSWORD" | lpod stry artisan users:create --super-admin --no-interaction \
    --name="Ada Lovelace" --email=ada@example.com --password-stdin
