FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package web-terminal

🖥️ Laravel Web Terminal

A secure, browser-based terminal for Laravel applications. Run Artisan, Git, Composer and shell commands directly from your browser — perfect for shared hosting environments where SSH access is unavailable.

Features

🔐 Dual security — requires both Laravel auth session AND a personal terminal token
⚙️ Artisan support — run any Artisan command natively via Artisan::call()
🌿 Git support — git pull, git status, git log and more
📦 Composer support — composer install, dump-autoload, etc.
🛡️ Command blacklist — blocks dangerous commands like rm -rf /
🕹️ Command history — navigate previous commands with arrow keys
✏️ Customisable — publish config, views and migrations to override anything
🚀 Compatible with Laravel 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13

Requirements

PHP 8.1+
Laravel 9.x / 10.x / 11.x / 12.x / 13.x
proc_open or shell_exec enabled on your server (for shell commands)

Note: Artisan commands work even if shell_exec is disabled, since they run in-process.

Installation

1. Install via Composer

2. Publish and run the migration

This adds two columns to your users table:

is_admin — boolean flag to grant terminal access
terminal_token — the secret token required to unlock the terminal

3. Grant yourself access

4. Visit the terminal

Publishing

You can publish various parts of the package for customisation:

Configuration

Publish the config file to customise behaviour:

Customising the UI

Publish the views to override the terminal interface:

This copies the view to resources/views/vendor/web-terminal/index.blade.php where you can freely edit it.

Environment Variables

You can configure the package via .env without publishing the config:

Security

This package uses two independent security layers:

Laravel auth — user must be logged in
Admin flag — is_admin must be true on the user record
Terminal token — a per-user secret sent as X-Terminal-Token on every request

Recommendations:

Use a strong, unique token per user (the bin2hex(random_bytes(32)) approach gives 64 hex chars)
Add IP allowlisting via .htaccess or your server config for extra protection
Consider disabling the terminal route in production when not in use via config

Available Commands

Category	Examples
Artisan	`artisan migrate --force`, `artisan cache:clear`, `artisan optimize`
Git	`git pull origin main`, `git status`, `git log --oneline -10`
Composer	`composer install --no-dev`, `composer dump-autoload`
PHP/Shell	`php -v`, `ls -la`, `pwd`
Built-in	`help`, `clear`

Troubleshooting

Shell commands return no output Your host likely has shell_exec / proc_open disabled. Artisan commands will still work. Check with:

git or composer not found Add the correct binary paths to WEB_TERMINAL_PATH in your .env. Find the path with:

403 on every request Make sure you have run the migration, set is_admin = true on your user, and are sending the correct token.
