create-keystone-app

Create Keystone App

A CLI for Keystone 5 to help generate starter apps.

Usage

Interactive

yarn create keystone-app my-app

and follow the prompts.

Non-Interactive

A non-interactive Keystone app creation could be useful in unattended app generation. One such example is creating a Docker image with a generated Keystone app built in. See the list of possible arguments in the Arguments section below.

npm init keystone-app --name "My App" --template "starter" --adapter "Mongoose" my-app

The app generation will fall back to interactive prompts if any of the arguments are missing or have incorrect values.

NOTE: By the time this documentation was written, yarn create was not working because the CLI arguments were not passed to the create-keystone-app script.

Arguments

Argument	Type	Description
--name	String	The Keystone app name visible in the Admin UI and page titles.
--template	String	One of the existing app templates (folder name). For example: starter, todo, etc.
--adapter	String	One of the adapters listed in the app template. Usually one of: Mongoose, Knex.
--dry-run	Boolean	Will go through the app generation process validating the user inputs or CLI arguments but in the end no app will be generated.

Run the App

cd my-app
yarn dev
