Initialize Project

Before panel development is started, you must initialize the project.

Prerequisites

• The development environment is built.

  Check the version number of each program to determine whether the installation is successful.

  • nvm -v
  • yarn -v
  • watchman -v

• A product is created.

Procedure

Step 1: Install CLI

The command-line interface (CLI) tuya-panel-cli is required during cloud development. To install it, run the following command:

• MacOS & Linux

  curl -fsSL https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/tuya/tuya-panel-cli/install.sh | sh
  

  If this is your first installation, set up the environment variable as per the instruction.

• Windows PowerShell

  iwr https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/tuya/tuya-panel-cli/install.ps1 -useb | iex
  

  The iwr command cannot run on early versions of PowerShell. To resolve this problem, see iwr cannot be recognized on Windows.

Run tuya-panel-cli help to see if all available commands are printed to determine whether the installation is successful.

Step 2: Initialize the template project

Perform the following steps:

1. Create a project.

   $ tuya-panel-cli init [projectName]
   

2. Select the target project template such as curtain, and press the Enter key.

3. After the template is downloaded, sequentially run the following commands to install and start the template.

   $ cd [projectName]
   $ yarn && yarn start
   

   

For more information about the templates and usage, see Scaffold Templates.

Step 3: Update tuya-panel-cli

Update tuya-panel-cli to the latest version.
