@expressots/cli
Command-line tool for scaffolding, generating, and deploying ExpressoTS applications.
Install
npm i -g @expressots/cli
Or scaffold a project without a global install:
npx @expressots/cli new my-app
Note: scaffolding fetches templates from expressots/templates at the git tag matching the CLI version (for example, CLI 4.0.0 clones the v4.0.0 templates tag), so the CLI and its templates always move together.
What This Package Does
The ExpressoTS CLI creates new projects, generates controllers, use-cases, providers, and modules, manages CI/CD pipelines, Docker and Kubernetes configs, and handles deployment workflows, all from the terminal.
Quick Look
expressots new my-app
expressots new edge-api --template micro --package-manager pnpm --target cloudflare
expressots generate usecase user/create
expressots dev
Cloudflare Workers scaffolding is available for the micro template through the
explicit --target cloudflare flag.
Runtime
expressots dev and expressots prod launch the app with Bun when the project
was created with Bun (a bun.lock is present) and the bun binary is
installed; otherwise they use Node (tsx in dev). Override per invocation with
--runtime node|bun, or for scripts and CI with EXPRESSOTS_RUNTIME=node|bun.
expressots build always compiles with tsc.
