Extending laravel's SeedCommand - php

Question

Trying to make an extension to the core db:seed command to add a couple of necessary options.
Extending the Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\SeedCommand
and registering my command in Kernel.php give me following output when running php artisan :
[Illuminate\Contracts\Container\BindingResolutionException]
Target [Illuminate\Database\ConnectionResolverInterface] is not instantiable while building [App\Console\Commands\TenantSeeder].
Any hints what I am missing ? the class itself below :
<?php
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\SeedCommand;
use Illuminate\Console\ConfirmableTrait;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Input\InputOption;
use Illuminate\Database\ConnectionResolverInterface as Resolver;
class TenantSeeder extends SeedCommand
{
use ConfirmableTrait;
/**
* The name and signature of the console command.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $signature = 'tenant:seed';
/**
* The console command description.
*
* #var string
*/
protected $description = 'Command description';
/**
* The connection resolver instance.
*
* #var \Illuminate\Database\ConnectionResolverInterface
*/
protected $resolver;
/**
* Create a new database seed command instance.
*
* #param \Illuminate\Database\ConnectionResolverInterface $resolver
* #return void
*/
public function __construct(Resolver $resolver)
{
parent::__construct();
$this->resolver = $resolver;
}
public function getOptions()
{
$opts = parent::getOptions();
return array_merge($opts, [
['tenant', null, InputOption::VALUE_REQUIRED, 'Tenant is required to generate tenant-specific data'],
]);
}
}

You can do it like this if you are using a regular database like MySQL:
<?php
namespace App\Console\Commands;
use Illuminate\Database\Console\Seeds\SeedCommand;
use Illuminate\Database\DatabaseManager;
class CustomSeedCommand extends SeedCommand
{
public function __construct(DatabaseManager $databaseManager)
{
parent::__construct($databaseManager);
}
}
