Run an artisan command from a Laravel app

In Laravel's artisan can be used to execute many tasks including migrations, generation of resources...etc.

In Laravel 4, how could you run an artisan command from you app without using shell_exec?

This is how you can get command output:

<?php

use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\StreamOutput;

class MyClass 
{
    public function myFunc()
    {
        $stream = fopen("php://output", "w");

        Artisan::call('my-command', array(), new StreamOutput($stream));

        var_dump($stream);
    }

}

You run Artisan commands via Artisan::call, for example:

Artisan::call('migrate')
