Environment Variables

FRONTITY_CREATE_PACKAGE_NAME

If you pass the --no-prompt flag to the create-package, the CLI will use the name from this FRONTITY_CREATE_PACKAGE_NAME environment variable.

If the CLI cannot find a FRONTITY_CREATE_PACKAGE_NAME environmental variable, it will prompt for the name of the package

Example:

FRONTITY_CREATE_NAME=test-project

You can see a scheme of the whole workflow of using this FRONTITY_CREATE_PACKAGE_NAME environment variable in the --no-prompt section
