Laravel package development with dependacy package

Question

Background

I am new to the Laravel Package.

In my Laravel application I usually run the following command in order to install Bican Rokes, change the config files, etc...

php artisan make:auth 
php artisan migrate

Objective

However, this process is tedious, so I was wondering if it is possible to create a package capable of automatizing the process.

What I tried

To achieve this I read the Laravel documentation, which teaches how to create packages, but I was unable to understand if this is possible and if it yes, how it should be done.

Questions

Can a package be used to automate this behaviour?
If yes, can you provide it?
If not, can you explain to me what a package really is? (links to tutorials are welcome)
If I cannot use a package, is there any other way of doing this?

@ Prashant. I need to create like a batch file which if I run takes care of all the changes and installation needed. I also need to give input in runtime like database name etc... — Vijayanand Premnath, Jun 08 '16 at 12:29
from my perspective, you have to run all laravel command manually — Prashant G Patil, Jun 08 '16 at 12:31

if a separate package should be created or not will depend on volume of work you want to accomplish. a starting point can be a custom console command, and from with-in that command, you can call multiple other commands.. And from their you can extend it to do other things like editing files etc. If you don't know how to write a console command in Laravel, here is the link to docs: https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/artisan#writing-commands
