myclasp v1.7.0

Develop Apps Script projects locally using clasp (Command Line Apps Script Projects).

To get started, try out the codelab!

Features

🗺️ Develop Locally: clasp allows you to develop your Apps Script projects locally. That means you can check-in your code into source control, collaborate with other developers, and use your favorite tools to develop Apps Script.

🔢 Manage Deployment Versions: Create, update, and view your multiple deployments of your project.

📁 Structure Code: clasp automatically converts your flat project on script.google.com into folders. For example:

• On script.google.com:
  • tests/slides.gs
  • tests/sheets.gs
• locally:
  • tests/
    • slides.js
    • sheets.js

🔷 Write Apps Script in TypeScript: Write your Apps Script projects using TypeScript features:

• Arrow functions
• Optional structural typing
• Classes
• Type inference
• Interfaces
• And more...

➡️ Run Apps Script: Execute your Apps Script from the command line. Features:

• Instant deployment.
• Suggested functions Autocomplete (Fuzzy)
• Easyily add custom Google OAuth scopes
• And more...

Install

First download clasp:

sudo npm i @google/clasp -g

Then enable Apps Script API: https://script.google.com/home/usersettings

(If that fails, run this:)

sudo npm i -g grpc @google/clasp --unsafe-perm

Guides

Ignore File (.claspignore)

Like .gitignore, .claspignore allows you to ignore files that you do not wish to not upload on clasp push. Steps:

1. Create a file called .claspignore in your project's root directory.
2. Add patterns to be excluded from clasp push. Note: The .claspignore file is parsed with Anymatch, which is different from .gitignore, especially for directories. To ignore a directory, use syntax like **/node_modules/**.

A sample .claspignore ignoring everything except the manifest and build/main.js:

**/**
!build/main.js
!appsscript.json

Project Settings File (.clasp.json)

When running clone or create, a file named .clasp.json is created in the current directory to describe clasp's configuration for the current project. Example .clasp.json:

{
  "scriptId": "",
  "rootDir": "build/",
  "projectId": "project-id-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "fileExtension": "ts",
  "filePushOrder": ["file1.ts", "file2.ts"]
}

The following configuration values can be used:

scriptId (required)

Specifies the id of the Google Script project that clasp will target. It is the part located inbetween /d/ and /edit in your project's URL: https://script.google.com/d/<SCRIPT_ID>/edit.

rootDir (optional)

Specifies the local directory in which clasp will store your project files. If not specified, clasp will default to the current directory.

projectId (optional)

Specifies the id of the Google Cloud Platform project that clasp will target. The Google Script project is associated with the Google Cloud Platform.

1. Run clasp open.
2. Click Resources > Cloud Platform project....
3. Specify the project ID project-id-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Even if you do not set this manually, clasp will ask this via a prompt to you at the required time.

fileExtension (optional)

Specifies the file extension for local script files in your Apps Script project.

filePushOrder (optional)

Specifies the files that should be pushed first, useful for scripts that rely on order of execution. All other files are pushed after this list of files.

Troubleshooting

The library requires Node version >= 6.0.0. Use this script to check your version and upgrade Node if necessary:

node -v # Check Node version
sudo npm install n -g
sudo n latest
