eto-dev-cli v1.1.0

eto-dev-cli

A command-line tool for local Eto development. When doing development work on Eto core, this tool allows you to copy the changes to the various Eto packages to Eto projects.

Install

npm install -g eto-dev-cli

Configuration / First time setup

The eto-dev-cli tool needs to know where your cloned Eto repository is located. You typically only need to configure this once.

eto-dev --set-path-to-repo /path/to/my/cloned/version/eto

How to use

Navigate to the project you want to link to your forked Eto repository and run:

eto-dev

The tool will then scan your project's package.json to find its Eto dependencies and copy the latest source from your cloned version of Eto into your project's node_modules folder. A watch task is then created to re-copy any modules that might change while you're working on the code, so you can leave this program running.

Typically you'll also want to run npm run watch in the Eto repo to set up watchers to build Eto source code.

Revert to current packages

If you've recently run eto-dev your node_modules will be out of sync with current published packages. In order to undo this, you can remove the node_modules directory or run:

git checkout package.json; yarn --force

or

git checkout package.json; npm install --force

Other commands

--packages

You can prevent the automatic dependencies scan and instead specify a list of packages you want to link by using the --packages option:

eto-dev --packages @etohq/eto

--scan-once

With this flag, the tool will do an initial scan and copy and then quit. This is useful for setting up automated testing/builds of Eto projects from the latest code.

--quiet

Don't output anything except for a success message when used together with --scan-once.

--copy-all

Copy all modules/files in the eto source repo in packages/

--force-install

Disables copying files into node_modules and forces usage of local npm repository.
