PHP Storm has a built in terminal window which you can use to run Laravel artisan commands, but there is a quick configuration change that you can do to make it even easier to run artisan commands.

Open Preferences > Tools > Command Line Tool Support
Click the plus icon
Select Laravel from the Choose tools dropdown and press OK

Command line tools

Set an alias, I’ve used artisan in this example
Choose your PHP Interpreter or use the default project interpreter
Set the Path to script as the location of your Laravel app’s artisan file
Press OK

Tool Settings

Press control twice to open Run Anything
Type the alias you entered, artisan in my example, and a list of artisan commands will appear, along with the available options.
The list of available commands will filter down as you type
Enter the command and press enter and it will run the command for you in the PHP Storm terminal

Run Anywhere
