Is it possible to generate an entity and the corresponding table in a single command using symfony3 console

Question

I am essentially looking to combine these two commands:

php bin/console doctrine:generate:entity --entity="BundleName:EntitiyName" --fields="fieldName:fieldType"

php bin/console doctrine:schema:update --force

I know I could write a script or simply chain the commands but I was wondering if Symfony provides an inbuilt solution.

I am using Symfony 3.3.

@Albeis - that would do the trick but if that's the only way I'd be better off with a shell script so I don't have to redeploy that custom snippet each time — Bananaapple, Aug 11 '17 at 14:37

So after looking into this some more this does not seem to be possible.

To work around this I created a batch script called tentity (table and entity), which I then added to my path:

@echo off
php .\bin\console doctrine:generate:entity %*
php .\bin\console doctrine:schema:update --force

Now I can simply do:

tentity --entity="BundleName:EntitiyName" --fields="fieldName:fieldType"
