Netoml

A CLI to build to build Netlify TOML

Also can be used a as a JavaScript library.

Usage

You can use Netoml as a CLI (command-line interface) or as a library.

Installation

To install it globally, run the following command.

npm install -g netoml

CLI

Simpliest case - without any arguments

You can run without any arguments to the CLI, which lets you select the site deployed on Netlify and write the TOML in the current directory (Bug: It writes to where current CLI is installed. Requires a fix...)

Simply run netoml (or an alias, ntml).

$ netoml
- or -
$ ntml

When you are not logged into Netlify, you will be prompted to log in on Netlify authentication site.

One you are logged in, you can search/select the deployed site.

λ netoml
? Choose a Netlify site name ...
reactblocks

zealous-benz-8d2f91
regular-peace-828b5
svelte-typeahead-dropdown

You can use arrow keys to select the site, or search by typing.

Running by passing the site name

Running the following command will create netlify.toml in the current directory.

$ netoml site_name

Note that site_name is optional.
If you do not specify it, the CLI will retrieve all of your Netlify site names, and let you select a site.

The command above will generate netlify.toml in the current directory for the site specified as site_name.
If you already have an existing netlify.toml file in the current directly, you will be prompted to overwrite or rename it.

λ ntml
√ Choose a Netlify site name · reactblocks
? Overwrite "C:\misc\src\github\dance2die\cli\netoml\dist\netlify.toml? » ❌ No / ✔ Yes

You can specify the output file name using --out (or -o).

netoml site_name --out private-netlify.toml
- or -
netoml site_name -o private-netlify.toml

You can overwrite the existing netlify.toml without being prompted.

netoml site_name --ovewrite
- or -
netoml site_name -ow

If you want to see the content of TOML without writing to a file, you can specify --console | -c flag to see the output in the console only.

netoml --console
- or -
ntml --console

Flags

Short	Long	Description
-o	--out	Name of output file (e.g. `netlify.toml` or `../../netlify.toml`)
-w	--overwrite	Overwrite existing `netlify.toml` file without prompt
-c	--console	Writes TOML to console only (this does not write TOML to a file)
-v	--version	Prints the CLI version
-h	--help	Prints the CLI help message.

Library

If you'd like to create a website/server to generate Netlify.toml, you can use Netoml as a library.

import Netoml from 'netoml'
// Or CommonJS - Note the ".default"
const Netoml = require('netoml').default

const netoml = new Netoml({ accessToken: NETLIFY_ACCESS_TOKEN })

// Get raw JSON without transforming it to TOML
console.log(netoml.toJson({ name: 'reactblocks' }))
// This is TOML version of .`toJson` output
console.log(netoml.toToml({ name: 'reactblocks' }))
