💻 CLI Commands
The Frontity command-line tool (CLI) is the main entry point for getting up and running with a Frontity application. It provides functionality like running a development server or building your Frontity application for deployment.
The Frontity CLI (Frontity commands) is available via npm. You can run any Frontity command by doing npx frontity <frontity-command>
Run npx frontity --help for full help.
The frontity commands you have available are:
These commands will allow you to either create a Frontity project or a Frontity package
create
These commands will allow you run a Frontity project in development or production mode
These commands will allow you generate the code that can be used to run or analyze a Frontity project
build
info
You can also use --help with each one of these commands to get more info about them: npx frontity dev --help
The Frontity CLI allows parametrization via arguments or environment variables to customize their execution.
If some of these arguments or environment variables are detected the proper values will be set and applied in the execution of the command
There's a --no-prompt option that can be used along with environment variables to avoid any question from CLI
Example
If you pass the --no-prompt flag to the create or create-package, the CLI will use the name from either FRONTITY_CREATE_NAME or FRONTITY_CREATE_PACKAGE_NAME environment variables.
If the CLI cannot find any of these environmental variables, it will prompt for the name of the package
This is the scheme followed by the CLI to get the name of the package
Create a Frontity project:
npx frontity create my-cool-projectAdd a custom theme (package):
npx frontity create-package my-custom-themeLaunch a development server:
