viewar-cli

ViewAR SDK Command Line Interface

Getting Started

Before installing the developer tools, you'll need to make sure that you have two prerequisites installed:

• Node.js version 6.0.0 or higher
• yarn or npm (>= v3.0.0) package managers

Next, install the ViewAR CLI – a command-line tool that generates basic boilerplates of new projects with examples.

npm install -g viewar-cli

or

yarn global add viewar-cli

You'll only need to install this CLI once. It will alert you when it's out of date, and provide instruction on how to update it.

Once installed, the CLI can be used to create a new project by running

viewar-cli init PROJECT_NAME

where PROJECT_NAME is the name of your new application. Once it's been created and the dependencies are installed, change your working directory to PROJECT_NAME, and start the application server by running npm start (or yarn start).

When the server has booted, you can access your application by navigating to http://localhost:8080/ in your web browser. Your application's code can be found in src/index.js, and you can learn more about available SDK features by diving into our documentation.
