Commands

tabris init

Creates a new Tabris.js app in the current directory.

See: Quick Start Guide - Tabris.js Documentation

tabris serve [options] [path]

Starts a server the Tabris.js developer app can be pointed to.

path

The file or directory to serve the Tabris.js app from. When ommitted, the current working directory is served.

options

-l, --logging

Enables request logging.

tabris build [options] <platform> [cordova-platform-opts]

Builds a Tabris.js app for the given platform.

To speed up the build, pre-compiled build artifacts are kept in a build cache and are reused in subsequent builds. To clean up the build cache, e.g. after updating Cordova plug-ins, run tabris clean.

See: Building a Tabris.js app - Tabris.js Documentation

platform

One of ios, android or windows.

--cordova-build-config <path>

--emulator

--device
