Usage
-----

[](#usage)

To generate a DTO file, use the following command:

```
dto [options] [model]
```

### Options

[](#options)

- `-h`, `--help`: Show this help message.
- `--namespace=`: Optional namespace (default is empty).
- `-B`, `--base`: Create `BaseDTO.php`.
- `-f`, `--force`: Force overwrite of existing files.
- `--dir=`: Directory to create (default is `app/DataTransferObjects`).

### Arguments

[](#arguments)

- `model`: Model name (default is `UserDTO`).

### Examples

[](#examples)

#### Generate a DTO with Default Settings

[](#generate-a-dto-with-default-settings)

```
dto
```

This will generate a `UserDTO.php` in the `app/DataTransferObjects` directory with no namespace.

#### Generate a DTO with a Custom Model Name

[](#generate-a-dto-with-a-custom-model-name)

```
dto MyModel
```

This will generate `MyModel.php` in the `app/DataTransferObjects` directory.

#### Generate a DTO with a Namespace

[](#generate-a-dto-with-a-namespace)

```
dto --namespace=App\\DTO MyModel
```

This will generate `MyModel.php` in the `app/DataTransferObjects` directory with the namespace `App\DTO`.

#### Create a Base DTO Class

[](#create-a-base-dto-class)

```
dto --base
```

This will create a `BaseDTO.php` file in the `app/DataTransferObjects` directory.

#### Specify a Different Directory

[](#specify-a-different-directory)

```
dto --dir=src/DTO MyModel
```

This will generate `MyModel.php` in the `src/DTO` directory.

#### Force Overwrite Existing Files

[](#force-overwrite-existing-files)

```
dto --force MyModel
```

This will overwrite `MyModel.php` if it already exists.
