Ella CLI provides a way by which commands can be grouped together.

For instance, a db command may have sub-commands like makemigrations, migrate, reset-db etc.

To achieve this use-case, create a file commands.py in root project

from ellar.commands import EllarTyper

db = EllarTyper(name="db")


@db.command(name="make-migrations")
def makemigrations():
    """Create DB Migration """

@db.command()
def migrate():
    """Applies Migrations"""

in ApplicationModule, add the command to Module commands parameter

from ellar.common import Module
from ellar.core import ModuleBase
from .commands import db

@Module(commands=[db])
class ApplicationModule(ModuleBase):
    pass

open your terminal and navigate to project directory and run the command below

ellar db --help

command output
