# @wrnexus/cli
Production parity commands:
```bash
wrnexus build .
wrnexus preview . --port=3000
wrnexus dev . --production-runtime
```
`preview` refuses to start without `dist/server.js` and executes that exact
artifact with the production profile. Production-runtime development rebuilds
the same minified artifact after app, public, or configuration changes and
keeps the last good server running when a rebuild fails.
> The `wrnexus` command-line tool that scaffolds, runs, builds, tests, and manages WrNexus apps.
Part of the **WrNexus** framework — an SSR-first, Bun-native full-stack web framework.
## Overview
`@wrnexus/cli` provides the `wrnexus` executable — the single entry point for developing a WrNexus app. It runs the HMR dev server, produces a self-contained production build, scaffolds apps/pages/components, drives database migrations, regenerates typed routes and queries, runs tests, and manages configuration profiles. It also scaffolds multi-app monorepos and serves them behind a domain-routing gateway. This is a CLI/build-time package (it shells out to the Bun binary for the dev child and tests) and it also exports the workspace config types via a subpath.
## Installation
```bash
bun add @wrnexus/cli
```
> Private package — the machine must be authenticated to the `wrnexus` npm org
> (a read token in `~/.npmrc`). Requires **Bun** (Node is not supported).
Once installed, invoke it from an app directory:
```bash
bunx wrnexus dev
# or add scripts: "dev": "wrnexus dev .", "build": "wrnexus build ."
```
## Commands
### Local production services
`wrnexus dev . --services` starts the application and the bounded local database,
cache, mail, SMS, webhook, storage, queue, cron, authentication and metrics simulator.
It generates a localhost/`*.localhost` development certificate under
`.wrnexus/certificates/` and serves both the application and service console over HTTPS.
Trust that certificate locally to remove the browser warning. Use `--services-http` only
when an external development proxy already terminates TLS.
### Exact production runtime with live updates
`wrnexus dev . --production-runtime` rebuilds and executes `dist/server.js` with
production resolution, serialization, caching, headers and assets. The supervisor keeps
the last good process when a build fails. On a successful rebuild the opt-in production
HMR socket reconnects, requests the new document and morphs it into the browser; ordinary
`wrnexus preview` and deployed production servers never include that client.
### API platform
`wrnexus api generate [app-dir]` (or `api docs`) derives operations from file routes and
emits `generated/api/openapi.json`, safe static documentation, Postman collection, curl examples,
and TypeScript, JavaScript, Java, Go and Python SDKs. Generate one client with
`wrnexus sdk generate <language> [app-dir]`.
Every command accepts an optional `[app-dir]` (defaults to `.`). Commands that read config or `.env` also accept `--profile=<name>` (see [Profiles](#profiles)).
| Command | Purpose |
| ------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `wrnexus dev [app-dir] [--port=3000]` | Start the development server with live reload / HMR. |
| `wrnexus build [app-dir]` | Build a self-contained production server bundle + assets into `dist/`. |
| `wrnexus create <app-name>` | Scaffold a new single app from an inline template. |
| `wrnexus workspace <name>` | Scaffold a monorepo (`apps/*` + shared `packages/*`). |
| `wrnexus workspace add <name>` | Add and register an app in the current workspace. |
| `wrnexus gateway [--port=3000]` | Serve every workspace app behind one port, routed by domain. |
| `wrnexus production [workspace-dir]` | Build, migrate, and serve every workspace app in production. |
| `wrnexus generate <type> <name>` | Scaffold a `page` \| `component` \| `api` \| `schema`. |
| `wrnexus generate routes` | Regenerate the typed routes file (`app/routes.gen.ts`). |
| `wrnexus generate docker` | Scaffold `Dockerfile`, `.dockerignore`, and `docker-compose.yml`. |
| `wrnexus generate mobile` | Scaffold a Capacitor shell for iOS and Android. |
| `wrnexus mobile add <package...>` | Install Capacitor plugins and sync native projects. |
| `wrnexus eject <name...>` | Copy WrNexus UI component `.wrn` sources into `app/components/`. |
| `wrnexus db <cmd>` | Database migrations and tooling (see [db](#wrnexus-db)). |
| `wrnexus test [app-dir] [--watch]` | Run the app's tests via `bun test` (defaults to the `test` profile). |
| `wrnexus profiles [app-dir]` | List config profiles and their `.env` files, marking the active one. |
| `wrnexus compatibility check` | Check whether behavior defaults are explicitly pinned and current. |
| `wrnexus compatibility explain` | Explain configured, effective, and current compatibility behavior. |
| `wrnexus compatibility upgrade` | Back up config and explicitly opt into reviewed current behavior. |
| `wrnexus help` | Print usage. |
`wrnexus g` is an alias for `wrnexus generate`.
Compatibility upgrades never happen implicitly. New applications pin
`compatibilityDate` and `frameworkBehaviour`; existing applications use
`wrnexus compatibility explain` before the backed-up, idempotent upgrade command.
### `wrnexus dev`
Supervises a child dev-server process (from `@wrnexus/dev-server`). The child owns file watching and HMR: CSS and client-island edits update the live page over a WebSocket with no restart; when a server module changes, the child exits with a restart code and the supervisor respawns it (the browser reconnects and morphs in the new HTML). On startup it regenerates typed DB queries and typed routes (best effort). Use `--port=` to change the port (default `3000`).
```bash
wrnexus dev . --port=8080
```
### `wrnexus build`
Emits into `<app-dir>/dist/`:
- `server.js` — a single, minified, self-contained Bun server with a **static** manifest of every page / api / realtime / middleware / component / layout module (no runtime filesystem scan or on-the-fly bundling).
- `reactive.js`, `theme.css`, `theme.js`, `ui.css`, and (if present) `styles.css` — hashed, minified browser assets.
- `public/` — copied verbatim.
Before bundling, it regenerates typed queries for the default and every named database. Run the output with:
```bash
bun dist/server.js # PORT env var optional
# Generated apps also provide: npm start
# Build and start together: npm run production
```
### `wrnexus create`
Scaffolds a complete v0.8 app from an inline template. The generated project includes strict TypeScript, ESLint and Prettier, editor recommendations, environment templates, database migrations, locales, schemas, tests, API/middleware/realtime examples, Tailwind and Iconify, PWA/mobile defaults, and the framework package kits. Its `wrnexus.config.ts` documents the current imports, types, stores, performance, observability, tenancy, build, navigation, theme, i18n, database, storage, realtime, security, and profile configuration.
Use `bun run dev` during development, `bun run check` for the complete typecheck/lint/test/format gate, `bun run build && bun run start` for production, or `bun run production` to build and start in one command.
### `wrnexus update`
`wrnexus update --latest` performs a complete project upgrade. It hands control to the exact target CLI, backs up important project files under `.wrnexus/update-backups/`, updates every `@wrnexus/*` dependency, refreshes framework-owned references, and applies every versioned syntax/config/file migration between the project version and target version. After installation it runs the project's `check` and `build` scripts; the new version is recorded only after verification succeeds.
Use `--dry-run` to preview an upgrade or `--no-verify` when verification is intentionally handled elsewhere. Migrations never overwrite user-owned configuration wholesale: each release must provide a focused, idempotent transformation for any changed syntax or config contract.
```bash
wrnexus create my-app
```
### `wrnexus generate`
Scaffolds a single file from a template, refusing to overwrite an existing file. Types (with aliases): `page`/`p`, `component`/`c`, `api`/`a`, `schema`/`s`. Nested names create nested paths.
```bash
wrnexus generate page about # app/pages/about.wrn
wrnexus generate component user-card # app/components/user-card.wrn
wrnexus generate api users/list # app/api/users/list.ts
wrnexus generate schema signup # app/schemas/signup.ts
wrnexus generate routes # regenerate app/routes.gen.ts
wrnexus generate docker # Dockerfile + compose + .dockerignore
wrnexus generate mobile --mode=webview --app-id=com.example.app --app-name="Example" --url=https://app.example.com
wrnexus generate mobile --mode=native
```
The mobile generator creates a separate `mobile/` package and reads
`config.mobile.mode`. `webview` creates a Capacitor shell that renders the hosted
WrNexus application. `native` creates a WebView-free Expo/React Native app whose
screens call the shared backend through `mobile/src/wrnexus.ts`. Native screens
do not render `.wrn` HTML. In either mode, run `bun install` in `mobile/`; iOS
device builds require macOS and Xcode.
Install official or community Capacitor plugins through the root CLI:
```bash
wrnexus mobile add @capacitor/camera @capacitor/haptics
wrnexus mobile sync
wrnexus mobile assets # generate native icons from config.mobile.icon
```
In native mode, `mobile add` runs `expo install` and `mobile sync` runs Expo
prebuild. In WebView mode they retain the Capacitor install/sync behavior.
`wrnexus mobile compile` maps portable `app/pages/**/*.wrn` pages to Expo Router
TSX routes. Native `bun run start` invokes this compilation automatically.
Browser code can access installed plugins through the SSR-safe
`@wrnexus/mobile` bridge. The command adds each plugin to both the WrNexus app
(JavaScript proxy) and `mobile/` (native synchronization).
`wrnexus mobile sync` also configures Android so only true network failures use
the local connection-error screen. HTTP errors such as 404 and 500 keep their
WrNexus response pages.
### `wrnexus eject`
Copies a WrNexus UI component's `.wrn` source out of `@wrnexus/ui` into `app/components/`, so the app owns and can edit it (the app copy shadows the library one by name). Run with no names to list available components. It skips components that already exist in the app.
```bash
wrnexus eject button card modal
```
### `wrnexus db`
Database migrations and tooling. Without a flag, commands target the **default** database (`db` in `wrnexus.config.ts`, files under `app/db/`). Pass `--db=<name>` to target a named database (`databases.<name>`, files under `app/db/<name>/`).
| Subcommand | Purpose |
| ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `db new <name> [--from-models]` | Scaffold a migration; `--from-models` derives it from the TS models in `schema.ts`. |
| `db migrate` | Apply all pending migrations. |
| `db rollback` | Revert the last applied migration. |
| `db status` | List applied / pending migrations. |
| `db generate` | Regenerate typed queries (`queries/*.sql``queries.gen.ts`). |
| `db seed` | Run the database's `seed.ts` (default export / `seed` function). |
| `db studio [table]` | Inspect tables — list row counts, or dump the first 50 rows of one table. |
```bash
wrnexus db new create_users --from-models
wrnexus db migrate
wrnexus db studio users
wrnexus db status --db=analytics
```
### `wrnexus workspace` and `wrnexus gateway`
`workspace <name>` scaffolds a monorepo: complete v0.8 apps under `apps/*`, shared libraries under `packages/*`, root TypeScript/lint/format/editor/environment tooling, and a `wrnexus.workspace.ts` that maps each app to the domains it serves. `gateway` runs every app behind one port and routes by `Host` header, with optional per-app auth and gateway-wide security (trusted hosts, rate limit, security headers, access log). Newly added workspace apps use the same current scaffold.
```bash
wrnexus workspace acme
wrnexus gateway --port=3000
```
For a complete production start, use the first-class workspace orchestrator:
```bash
wrnexus production --host=0.0.0.0 --port=3000
```
It builds every registered app, applies default and named-database SQL migrations
when present, and starts the production gateway only after preparation succeeds.
Use `--prepare-only`, `--no-build`, or `--no-migrate` when deployment stages are
managed separately; `--environment=<name>` selects another workspace environment.
From a workspace root, add and register another app in one command:
```bash
wrnexus workspace add reports --domain=reports.localhost
bun install
```
Development gateways bind to `127.0.0.1` by default for reliable access on Windows,
macOS, and Linux. Open the configured app domain on the gateway port (for example
`http://localhost:3000` or `http://admin.localhost:3000`), not the internal child ports
printed while apps start. Pass `--host=0.0.0.0` to accept connections from other devices.
### `wrnexus test`
Runs the app's tests with `bun test`. Defaults to the `test` profile (config + `.env.test`). Pass `--watch` to re-run on change; extra flags pass straight through to `bun test`.
```bash
wrnexus test . --watch
```
## Usage
### Create and run a single application
```bash
bunx @wrnexus/cli create customer-portal
cd customer-portal
bun install
bun run dev
```
### Add routes and shared UI to an existing app
```bash
wrnexus generate page reports/monthly
wrnexus generate api reports/export
wrnexus generate component report-filter
wrnexus generate routes
```
### Create a multi-app workspace and add another app
```bash
wrnexus workspace company-suite
cd company-suite
wrnexus workspace add reports --domain=reports.localhost
bun install
wrnexus gateway --port=3000
```
Open `http://reports.localhost:3000`; the gateway selects `apps/reports` from the
request host.
### Upgrade with migrations and verification
```bash
wrnexus update --latest --dry-run
wrnexus update --latest
wrnexus doctor
```
Use `wrnexus doctor --fix [app-dir]` to apply conservative repairs before the
health check: create missing `app/pages` and a default config, align skewed
`@wrnexus/*` dependency ranges, record the current migration marker, and format
only syntax-valid `.wrn` files. Invalid JSON or WRN sources are reported/skipped
instead of overwritten; repeat runs are idempotent.
## Profiles
Pass `--profile=<name>` to `dev`, `build`, `db` (or set `WRNEXUS_PROFILE`) to select a config profile. The CLI publishes `WRNEXUS_PROFILE` so config loaders and the dev child pick it up, and loads that profile's `.env` cascade (`.env`, `.env.local`, `.env.<profile>`, `.env.<profile>.local`) into `process.env`.
```bash
wrnexus dev --profile=uat
wrnexus profiles # ● development (config, .env.development)
# ○ production
# ○ uat (config, .env.uat)
```
## Subpath exports
`@wrnexus/cli/workspace` exposes the workspace configuration types used by `wrnexus.workspace.ts`:
```ts
import type { WorkspaceConfig, WorkspaceApp } from "@wrnexus/cli/workspace";
const config: WorkspaceConfig = {
security: { trustedHostsOnly: true, headers: true, accessLog: true },
apps: [{ name: "web", dir: "apps/web", domains: ["localhost", "web.localhost"] }],
};
export default config;
```
## Requirements / Notes
- **Bun-only.** The CLI runs on Bun, spawns the Bun binary for the dev child and `bun test`, and the production build uses `Bun.build`. Node is not supported.
- Orchestrates the rest of the framework: `@wrnexus/dev-server` (dev/prod server + gateway), `@wrnexus/router` (route + typed-routes codegen), `@wrnexus/compiler` (`.wrn``.ts`), `@wrnexus/db` (migrations, typed queries), `@wrnexus/styles` (config, profiles, `.env`, themes, styles), `@wrnexus/ui` (ejectable WrNexus UI components), `@wrnexus/validation`, `@wrnexus/csr`, and `@wrnexus/i18n`.
- Reads `wrnexus.config.ts` for `db` / `databases`, `theme`, `styles`, `seo`, `security`, `i18n`, and `profiles`, and `wrnexus.workspace.ts` for the gateway.
