Command responses

[Corvisier]

Hi schickling,

Great package, very useful.
I have a question though, How can we retrive the status of the command?
i.e if the command failed or not? So we an flash a message to the view?

Hi @Corvisier,

if you look into the source you should find what you were looking for:

https://github.com/schickling/laravel-backup/blob/master/src/Schickling/Backup/Commands/BackupCommand.php#L41

Hi @schickling,
Thanks for the fast reply.
I checked the source code before posting hence the question.
I use it like this from the controller:

Artisan::call('db:backup');

I know I need to check for the status so I can display a message that's not the problem.
It's just how do I pass $status to my controller?
Sorry for the noob question...

Well, the plugin wasn't built for that purpose. I'm not sure how Artisan::call handles a response status.
