NativeCLI Help

Start a New NativePHP Project

This tutorial assumes that you have already followed the Installation guide.

Before you start

Make sure that:

  • NativeCLI has been installed.

  • NativeCLI is in your path and available for use:

    nativecli --version Output: NativePHP CLI Tool 1.0.0-alpha.1

Starting a new NativePHP Project

At this time, NativePHP only supports Laravel. For this reason, so does NativeCLI.

NativeCLI utilises Laravels Installer library. This means that any arguments available within that is also available within NativeCLI.

  1. Execute the following command in the terminal:

    cd ~/Code nativecli new MyFirstProject
    New Command Example
  2. You'll be prompted to select some options from the Laravel installer. Choose your favourites!

  3. That's it! you'll find a new folder with your project name. It includes everything you need to get started.
