Using the Baseline CLI

Run Commands

Via Docker Compose

docker compose exec app npx baseline [command]

Execute commands inside your application container using npx.

Via The Helper

./baseline [command]

Use the ./baseline executable in your project root, it is simply a wrapper around the docker compose command.

WARNING

The CLI automatically bootstraps the framework by locating server/baseline.js.

Ensure that server/baseline.js exists and exports exactly one variable: the baseline instance.
