To develop CommandBox modules with dependency injection, you leverage WireBox injection within your ModuleConfig to provide necessary objects to your commands and interceptors, ensuring maintainable and testable tooling.

The best way to create custom CLI commands in CFML is by defining a minimal command structure with a ModuleConfig and implementing the run() method, which can then be organized into a scalable hierarchy using namespaced commands.

Lifecycle hooks like onLoad and onUnLoad work by executing specific logic when your CommandBox extension or module is installed or removed, allowing you to initialize resources, register interceptors, and clean up dependencies properly.

Yes, you can use interceptors to run custom logic before or after CommandBox commands execute by leveraging pre and post command interception points, enabling you to modify behavior or enforce constraints across your custom CLI modules.

You place a minimal CommandBox module under the ~/.CommandBox/cfml/modules directory and run a sample command from your CLI to verify the module configuration, dependency injection, and lifecycle hooks are functioning correctly.

Yes, WireBox supports organizing namespaced commands in CommandBox by allowing you to structure your modules into a scalable hierarchy, ensuring your custom CLI extensions remain maintainable as the number of commands grows.
