Custom dispatcher

Bind your own implementation of BradieTilley\Actions\Contracts\Dispatcher:

$this->app->singleton(
    \BradieTilley\Actions\Contracts\Dispatcher::class,
    CustomDispatcher::class,
);

Overriding construction

Dispatchable::newAction() resolves the class (honouring Action::replace()) and constructs with new. Override it on a base action class to use the container or a factory:

protected static function newAction(mixed ...$arguments): static
{
    return app(static::class, /* ... */);
}

Action logging helpers

BradieTilley\Actions\Concerns\ActionLogs is an optional PSR-style logging trait (info(), error(), useLogChannel(), etc.). It is not included on the base Action — use it where useful:

use BradieTilley\Actions\Action;
use BradieTilley\Actions\Concerns\ActionLogs;

class ImportCsv extends Action
{
    use ActionLogs;

    public function handle(): void
    {
        $this->info('Import started');
    }
}

Artisan generator

php artisan make:action SendInvoice

Override the stub by placing stubs/action.stub in your application root.
