Commands

All commands should be run from within the repository, as fusion <command> if installed globally, or npx fusion <command> if installed locally.

start [--no-admin]

Configure a docker-compose cluster to map npm linked modules, then start services.

This is also aliased as npm start for convenience.

The start command may also be run with the --no-admin flag to run the rendering services without the admin app.

For themes development, there are a few additional flags you can use:

• -l or --links: Use the local version of blocks for developement. Can optionally take a comma separated string of blocks to link instead of linking all of them (-l @org/block1,@org/block2). This requires that you have THEMES_BLOCKS_REPO set in your .env file and it should be the absolute path to the directory the local blocks repo is in.
• New for fusion 2.7.4 When linking an unpublished block, you will need to include @org/block-name@local in your blocks.json in addition to using the -l @org/block-name flag.
• -f or --rebuild: Rebuild the webpack image and pull the latest version of the blocks.
• -p or --production: Force the image to use the published blocks. A developer can use any published tag canary, beta, stable, hotfix, or latest.

stop

Stop services

verify

Run webpack on the repo source to ensure it has no compilation errors

zip

• -f or --force: Skip verifying the bundle.
• -n or --rename: Change the generated zip file's name.
