Project Configuration

Lovrabet CLI configuration information is saved in the .lovrabetrc file in the project root directory. This file is like your project's "ID card", recording various important configuration information.

Why Do You Need Configuration?​

The configuration file lets the CLI know:

  • Which backend application your project corresponds to
  • Which environment it's running in (development, testing, production)
  • Special settings and preferences for your project

This way you don't need to manually enter this information every time.

How to Manage Configuration​

Lovrabet CLI provides simple commands to manage configuration:

Set Configuration Item​

lovrabet config set <config-name> <config-value>

# Example: Set application code
lovrabet config set app my-awesome-app

View Configuration Item​

lovrabet config get <config-name>

# Example: View application code
lovrabet config get app

View All Configuration​

lovrabet config list

This will display all configuration items and their corresponding values for the current project.

Common Configuration Items​

app - Application Code​

This is the most important configuration, telling the CLI which backend application your project corresponds to.

# Set application code
lovrabet config set app my-shop-app

# View current setting
lovrabet config get app

When to use:

  • When executing lovrabet api pull, if no application code is passed, the CLI will use this configuration
  • Ensures team members use the same backend application

Other Configuration Items​

Config NameDescriptionExample Value
createdAtProject creation time2024-09-18T10:30:00.000Z
versionCLI version1.0.31
lastSyncLast API sync time2024-09-18T14:30:00.000Z

Configuration File Example​

A complete .lovrabetrc file might look like this:

{
  "app": "my-shop-app",
  "createdAt": "2024-09-18T10:30:00.000Z",
  "version": "1.0.31",
  "lastSync": "2024-09-18T14:30:00.000Z"
}

Note: Don't edit this file manually. It's recommended to use the lovrabet config command to modify configuration. This avoids format errors and configuration conflicts.

Configuration Best Practices​

1. Team Collaboration​

  • Add the .lovrabetrc file to Git version control
  • Ensure team members use the same app configuration
  • Document necessary configuration items in the project README

2. Multi-Project Management​

  • Different projects use different app configurations
  • Regularly check and update configuration

3. Security Notes​

  • Don't store sensitive information in configuration files
  • When encountering configuration issues, check lovrabet config list first
  • Regularly clean up unused configuration items
