ember-cli
Advanced tools
Ember CLI is the command line interface for managing and developing Ember.js applications. It provides a robust set of tools for scaffolding, building, testing, and deploying Ember.js applications.
Project Creation
This command creates a new Ember.js application with the name 'my-app'. It sets up the project structure, installs dependencies, and configures the build system.
ember new my-appGenerating Blueprints
This command generates a new component called 'my-component'. Blueprints are templates for generating various parts of an Ember.js application, such as components, routes, and services.
ember generate component my-componentRunning the Development Server
This command starts a local development server, allowing you to preview your application in the browser. It also watches for file changes and automatically reloads the application.
ember serveBuilding the Application
This command builds the Ember.js application for production. It optimizes the assets and outputs them to the 'dist' directory, ready for deployment.
ember build --environment productionRunning Tests
This command runs the application's test suite. Ember CLI supports both unit and integration tests, and it can be configured to run tests in different environments.
ember testCreate React App is a command line tool for creating and managing React applications. It provides a similar set of features to Ember CLI, including project scaffolding, development server, and build tools. However, it is tailored specifically for React applications.
Vue CLI is the standard tooling for Vue.js development. It offers a similar feature set to Ember CLI, including project creation, development server, and build tools. Vue CLI also provides a plugin system for extending its functionality.
Angular CLI is the command line interface for Angular applications. It provides tools for generating components, services, and other parts of an Angular application, as well as running a development server and building the application for production. It is similar to Ember CLI but tailored for Angular.
The Ember.js command line utility.
npm install -g ember-cli
After installation the ember CLI tool will be available to you. It is the
entrypoint for all the functionality mentioned above.
You can call ember <command> --help to find out more about all of the
following commands or visit https://ember-cli.com/user-guide/ to read
the in-depth documentation.
ember new my-new-app
This will create a new folder my-new-app, initialize a Git project in it,
add the basic Ember.js project structure and install any necessary npm and
Bower dependencies.
ember addon my-new-addon
This is essentially similar to ember new but will generate the structure
for an ember-cli addon instead.
ember build
This will create a dist folder and run the build pipeline to generate all
the output files in it. You can specify --environment=production to build
in production mode, which includes code minification and other optimizations.
ember serve
This will launch a development server that will automatically rebuild your project on file changes and serves the built app at http://localhost:4200/.
ember test
This command will start the Testem runner, which will run all your tests from
the tests folder. This command also supports a --server option which will
automatically run tests on file changes.
ember generate route foo
This will generate a route named foo. route is an example here and can
be replaced by any other available blueprint. Blueprints are provided by
ember-cli itself and any of you installed addons. Run ember generate --help
to see a list of available blueprints in your project and their options.
ember install some-other-addon
This will search npm for a package named some-other-addon, install it and
run any additional install steps defined in the addon.
Start by cloning the Git project to your local hard drive:
git clone https://github.com/ember-cli/ember-cli.git
ember to your development versionRunning the following command will link the global ember utility to your
local development version:
npm link
Note that the global ember CLI utility will automatically relay to any
project-local ember-cli installation. If you want to use your development
version there instead run the following command from your Ember.js
project folder:
npm link ember-cli
Read the official npm-link documentation for more information.
npm test
will run ESLint and the "fast" subset of the test suite. Run
npm run test-all for the full test suite which will currently take quite a
few minutes due to heavy IO and network usage.
ember-cli is using Mocha for its internal tests. If you want to run a specific subset of tests have a look at their documentation.
Use npm run docs to build HTML and JSON documentation with YUIDoc and place
it in docs/build/. Please help by improving this documentation.
