## Basic workflow
|
||
|
|
||
|
To create, build, and serve a new, basic CPL project on a development server, go to the parent directory of your new workspace use the following commands:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```sh
|
||
|
cpl new console my-first-project
|
||
|
cd my-first-project
|
||
|
cpl start
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
In the terminal you will the output of the app.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## CLI command-language syntax
|
||
|
|
||
|
```cpl``` commandNameOrAlias requiredArg ```[optionalsArgs]```
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Most commands, and some options, have aliases. Aliases are shown in the syntax statement for each command.
|
||
|
- Arguments are not prefixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Relative paths
|
||
|
|
||
|
Options that specify files can be given as absolute paths, or as paths relative to the current working directory, which is generally either the workspace or project root.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### Schematics
|
||
|
|
||
|
The cpl generate command takes as an argument the artifact to be generated. In addition to any general options, each artifact defines its own options in a schematic. Schematic options are supplied to the command in the same format as immediate command options.
