Symfony console component categories

Question

Is there a way to put commands into a category for the Symfony Console component? Currently the commands are listed like so:

Available commands:
  create-droplets  Create droplets
  help             Displays help for a command
  list             Lists commands

What I would want is something like this:

Available commands:
  Server:
     create-droplets  Create droplets

  Default:
     help             Displays help for a command
     list             Lists commands

I think this is currently being done in Laravel with artisan but I am wondering if this is also possible with the Symfony Console component.

Cheers.

I recommend you to read about Symfony Console Commands: http://symfony.com/doc/current/console.html

That being said, you can group commands. Syntax:

group:command_name

In your case it would be:

1. server:create-droplets

   $this->setName('server:create-droplets') ->setDescription('Create droplets')

2. default:help

   $this->setName('default:help') ->setDescription('Displays help for a command')

3. default:list

   $this->setName('default:list') ->setDescription('Lists commands')
