This document is for a version of CakePHP that is no longer supported. Please upgrade to a newer release!
CakePHP features a number of console applications out of the box. Some of these applications are used in concert with other CakePHP features (like ACL or i18n), and others are for general use in getting you to launch quicker.
This section explains how to use the core console applications packaged with CakePHP.
Before you dive in here, you may want to check out the The CakePHP Console covered earlier. Console setup isn’t covered here, so if you’ve never used the console before, check it out.
