Create a Custom Controller by artisan command laravel 5 - laravel

Question

I am developing a package, I need to create a command for it which creates a controller the code looks like this:
class MyCommand extends Command {
protected $name = 'package:mycommand';
public function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
}
public function fire()
{
$this->call('vendor:publish');
$argName = $this->argument('name');
$this->call('make:controller', ['name' => $argName.'Controller']);
}
This command works and it creates a controller which looks like this:
class wwController extends Controller {
public function index()
{
}
}
and also some other functions are there but their are not implemented,
Question:
Is there anyway to create a custom controller which extends from one of the controller in my package, let's say MyController and also has the functions of MyController
or if this is not possible with this command, is there any other command suitable for this purpose?
I need to create a controller with command like this:
class newController extends MyController {
public function myFunction()
{
}
}

If you want to scaffold a controller you may want to checkout Laracast/Generator project for an example of how this sort of thing could be done.
In the MigrationMakeCommand.php Jeffrey (I assume the author here) creates a command that generates a migration file based on some command line parameters you pass into that command. This is fairly similar to what you're trying to do.
As far as I can tell you'll wan to inject the file system and composer as the author did on line 56
/**
* Create a new command instance.
*
* #param Filesystem $files
* #param Composer $composer
*/
public function __construct(Filesystem $files, Composer $composer)
{
parent::__construct();
$this->files = $files;
$this->composer = $composer;
}
Then you'll want to pay particularly close attention to the chain method calls on line 156 that's pretty close to the steps you'll need to take to make a new controller file.
protected function compileMigrationStub()
{
$stub = $this->files->get(__DIR__ . '/../stubs/migration.stub');
$this->replaceClassName($stub)
->replaceSchema($stub)
->replaceTableName($stub);
return $stub;
}
