It does not support expression for elements with efferent/afferent couplings

There's some advanced expressions like below

https://github.com/structurizr/dsl/blob/master/docs/language-reference.md#expressions

  • -><identifier|expression>: the specified element(s) plus afferent couplings
  • <identifier|expression>->: the specified element(s) plus efferent couplings
  • -><identifier|expression>->: the specified element(s) plus afferent and efferent couplings

But this CLI does NOT support them.
Trying exporting views, we get the error like below.

$ docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}c4:/usr/local/structurizr structurizr/cli export --workspace workspace.dsl --format mermaid --animation true --output output

That particular feature is new to the DSL and hasn't yet been released onto Maven Central or the CLI yet ... I'll hopefully do a release later this week or next.
