CLI (Command Line Interface)
You can also code with your familiar editors (e.g. Visual Studio Code, Atom, Sublime Text, etc.) and then upload the code with Kaluma CLI.
You can only upload only a single.jsfile with CLI. If you want to upload multiple.jsfiles, you need to bundle them into a single.jsfile using Webpack or other bundlers. Here is a sample local project showing how to setup a project in local with Webpack.
Different from Web IDE, CLI only allows to upload a single
.js file in local. If you want to use third-party modules, you have to configure project by yourself with Webpack or other bundlers for bundling them into a single .js file.Install Kaluma CLI
Open a terminal and install Kaluma CLI. Before installing CLI, please ensure that Node.js/NPM is already installed. Sometimes you may need to use
sudo. If you are using Apple M1 Mac or Raspberry Pi OS, you need to install with --unsafe-perm and --build-from-source options.1
