sencha

sencha ant

Invokes the embedded version of Apache Ant providing the cmd.dir property to
access Sencha Cmd using the following taskdef:

<taskdef resource="com/sencha/ant/antlib.xml"
         classpath="${cmd.dir}/sencha.jar"/>

This command recognizes the -Dproperty=value syntax for properties used by
Ant, even though this does not conform to normal Sencha Cmd parameter syntax.
Similar to directly invoking Ant, this command defaults to "build.xml" for
the script file basing its search on the current directory or the value of the
-cwd switch passed to sencha.

For example, the following command uses "../build.xml" as the script and
passes in the foo property as "42" when executing the default target (since
no target was specified).

sencha -cwd=.. ant -Dfoo=42

Options

--debug, -d - Enables Ant debug level messages
--file, -f - The Ant file to execute (default is build.xml)
--props, -p - One or more properties for the Ant script (name=value,...)
--target, -t - The target(s) to execute from the Ant script (comma separated)
--verbose, -v - Enables Ant verbose level messages

Syntax

sencha ant [options] targets...

Where:

targets - The Ant script targets to execute

sencha app

This category contains various commands for application management.

Commands

build - Executes the build process for an application
refresh - Updates the application metadata (aka "bootstrap") file
resolve - Generate dependencies in the loading order for the given app.
upgrade - Upgrade the current application to the specified SDK

sencha app build

This command builds the current application.

sencha app build [production|testing|native|package]

This will build your application in its current configuration and generate the
build output in the "build/<environment>" folder. This location and many
other properties can be configured in your application's configuration file
".sencha/app/sencha.cfg" or the provided build script "build.xml".

For locally overriding build properties, the build script loads an optional
properties file called "local.properties" if present in your app folder. The
purpose of this file is to define build properties that are in some way special
to the local environment (that is, the local machine). As such, this file is
not intended to be tracked in source control.

Using Ant

This command is equivalent to running the provided Ant script directly using
the following command:

sencha ant [production|testing|native|package] build

To tune the process, start by looking at the generated "build.xml" in your
app folder. The actual build logic is located in ".sencha/app/build-impl.xml".

The "build.xml" script can be used by many Continuous Integration (CI) systems
if they understand Apache Ant (most do). If not, the Sencha Cmd command line
can be used as you would during development. If the CI system understands Ant,
however, it is often more convenient to use that integration rather than using
a command line invocation.

Options

--archive, -a - The directory path where all previous builds were stored.
--clean, -c - Remove previous build output prior to executing build
--destination, -d - The directory to which the build output is written
--environment, -e - The build environment, either 'testing', 'production', 'package' (Touch Specific), or 'native' (Touch Specific).
--run, -r - Enables automatically running builds with the native packager

Syntax

sencha app build [options] [environment] \
                           [destination] \

sencha config

This command can be used to either set configuration options singly or load a
configuration file to set multiple options.

Because these configuration options are only held for the current execution of
Sencha Cmd, you will almost always use then to chain commands that will now
be executed with the modified configuration.

For example, to change the theme of an Ext JS application for a build:

sencha config -prop app.theme=ext-theme-neptune then app build

Multiple properties can be loaded from a properties file:

sencha config -file neptune.properties then app build

The content of "neptune.properties" might be something like this:

app.theme=ext-theme-neptune
app.build.dir=${app.dir}/build/neptune

In this case, an alternative would be to set app.dir in the applications's
"sencha.cfg" file like so:

app.build.dir=${app.dir}/build/${app.theme}

Options

--file, -f - The properties file to load
--prop, -p - One or more property names and values to set

Syntax

sencha config [options]

sencha fs concatenate

This command combines multiple input files into a single output file.

sencha fs concat -to=output.js input1.js input2.js input3.js

Options

--from, -f - List of files to concatenate, comma-separated
--to, -t - The destination file to write concatenated content

Syntax

sencha fs concatenate [options] files...

sencha fs difference

This command produces a delta (or "patch") file between input files.

sencha fs diff -from=base.js -to=modified.js -delta=patch

Syntax

sencha fs difference

sencha fs minify [options]

sencha fs mirror

Commands for create horizontal mirror of images and sprites for RTL locales.

This family of commands is intended for automated production of "derivative"
images based on hand maintained and designed image assets authored in the more
familiar, left-to-right (LTR) form.

Commands

all - Horizontally flip a folder of images and sprites based on naming convention
image - Horizontally flip an image
sprite - Horizontally flip a "sprite" (multi-cell image)

sencha fs mirror all

This command creates horizontal mirror images of a folder of images and/or
sprites. This command requires some name consistency in order to differentiate
output files from input files and the geometry of sprites.

Sprites must have a name segment that looks like "4x3" to define its geometry.
This is understood as "columns" x "rows" or, in this example, 4 columns and 3
rows.

The following examples all fit this pattern:

tools-2x12.png
sprite_12x3.gif
some-3x5-sprite.png

The input files and output files are separated by a suffix that must be given.
THe output files will be produced from the input files applying the suffix. By
default, the output files are written to the same folder as the input files.
This can be changed by specifying "-out".

For example:

sencha fs mirror all -r -suffix=-rtl /path/to/images

The above command performs the following:

Scans "/path/to/images" (and all sub folders due to -r) for images.
Any image not ending in "-rtl" is considered an input file.
Any input image with sprite geometry in its name has its cells flipped.
Other input images are entirely flipped.
The input files are written using their original name plus the suffix.
Up-to-date checks are made but can be skipped by passing -overwrite.
Files are written to "/path/to/images".

By passing the -format switch, the format of the output images can be set
to be other than the same format as the original file. For example, one could
convert PNG files to GIF by passing -format=gif. This does only basic image
conversion and no advanced image processing. Simple color quantization can be
enabled using -quantize.

For example:

sencha fs mirror all all -format=gif -ext=png -quantize -out=/out/dir \
     -suffix=-rtl /some/pngs

The above command will process all "png" images and will write out their
"gif" versions (using color quantization) to a different folder.

Options

--dry-run, -d - When set no images will be saved but all normal work is still done
--extensions, -e - Comma-separated list of image extensions (default is "gif,png")
--format, -f - The image format to write all output files (e.g., "-f=png")
--output-dir, -ou - The output folder for generated images (defaults to input folder)
--overwrite, -ov - Disable up-to-date check and always generate output file
--quantize, -q - Enable basic color quantization (useful with -format=gif)
--recurse, -r - Process the input folder recursively (i.e., include sub-folders)
--suffix, -s - The suffix of output files (e.g., "-rtl")

Syntax

sencha fs mirror all [options] File

Where:

File - The input folder to process

sencha fs mirror image

This command create a horizontal mirror image of a given input file.

For example

sencha fs mirror image foo.png foo-rtl.png

The above command creates "foo-rtl.png" from "foo.png".

Syntax

sencha fs mirror image File \
                       File

sencha fs mirror sprite

This command create a horizontal mirror image of the cells in a given sprite.

For example

sencha fs mirror sprite -rows=2 -cols=4 sprite.png sprite-rtl.png

The above command horizontally flips each cell in the 2x4 sprite "sprite.png"
and produces "sprite-rtl.png".

NOTE: The number of rows and columns are required.

Options

--columns, -c - The number of columns in the sprite.
--rows, -r - The number of rows in the sprite.

Syntax

sencha fs mirror sprite [options] File \
                                  File

sencha fs slice

This command performs image slicing and manipulation driven by the contents of
a JSON manifest file. The manifest file contains an array of image area
definitions that further contain a set of "slices" to make.

This file and the corresponding image are typically produced for a Theme as
part of the theme package build. For details on this process, consult this
guide:

http://docs.sencha.com/ext-js/4-2/#!/guide/command_slice

Options

--format, -f - The image format to save - either "png" or "gif" (the default)
--image, -i - The image to slice

Given the above, the following URL entered in a browser will display the files
in "/path/to/foo":

http://localhost:8000/foo

And this URL will display the files in "/another/path":

http://localhost:8000/bar

To stop the server, press CTRL+C or run the sencha fs web stop command:

sencha fs web -port 8000 stop

Options

--mappings, -m - List of local folders (ex: [sub=]/path/to/folder)

Syntax

sencha fs web start [options]

sencha fs web stop

This command stops the Web server previously started by sencha fs web start.

For example:

sencha fs web -port 8000 start -map foo=/path/to/foo,bar=/another/path

From another terminal or console, this will stop the server:

sencha fs web -port 8000 stop

Syntax

sencha generate package

This command generates a new Sencha Cmd Package. A package is in many ways like
an application in that it contains any of the following pieces:

JavaScript source
SASS styles
Arbitrary resources

All of these are integrated by a build process using sencha package build.

For example:

sencha generate package foo

To use this package in applications (or other packages), you just add the name
of the package to the requires array in the "app.json" or "package.json"
file:

requires: [
    'foo'
]

All packages reside in the "./packages" folder of the workspace (which is
often the same folder as your application).

sencha generate theme

This command generates a new Theme. For Ext JS 4.1, themes are "owned" by an
application. In Ext JS 4.2 and beyond, themes are Packages.

In Ext JS 4.2, theme packages can extend other themes. By default, generated
themes extend "ext-theme-classic". This can be overridden using --extend.

To generate a stand-alone Theme in Ext JS 4.2, follow these steps. Generate a
workspace (with "ext" folder) using Ext JS 4.2 SDK unzipped on your system:

sencha -sdk /path/to/ext-4.2.0 generate workspace MyWorkspace
cd MyWorkspace

From inside the workspace, use the "ext" folder to generate the theme package:

sencha -sdk ext generate theme --extend ext-theme-neptune MyTheme

The above could equivalently have used the SDK used to create the workspace.

The -sdk switch is used here to indicate the framework on which the theme is
based. This is not needed if the command is run from an Ext JS application
folder.

NOTE: Does not apply to Sencha Touch.

Options

--extend, -e - The name of the theme package to extend (Ext JS 4.2+ only)
--name, -n - The name of the Theme to generate

sencha js

This command loads and executes the specified JavaScript source file or files.

sencha js file.js[,file2.js,...] [arg1 [arg2 ...] ]

Files

The first argument to this command is the file or files to execute. If there
are multiple files, separate them with commas. In addition to the command line
technique of specifying files, this command also recognizes the following
directive:

//@require ../path/to/source.js

This form of require directive uses a relative path based on the file that
contains the directive. Any given file will only be executed once, in much the
same manner as the compiler.

Context

A primitive console object with the following methods is provided to the
JavaScript execution context:

log
debug
info
warn
error
dir
trace
time / timeEnd

Arguments beyond the first can be accessed in JavaScript with the global $args
array. The current directory can be accessed with $curdir.

The Sencha Cmd object can be accessed with sencha. This object has a version
property and a dispatch method.

if (sencha.version.compareTo('3.0.0.210') < 0) {
    console.warn('Some message');
} else {
    // dispatch any command provided by Cmd:
    sencha.dispatch([ 'app', 'build', $args[1] ]);
}

Beyond the above, the executing JavaScript has full access to the JRE using
the importPackage and importClass methods.

For example:

importPackage(java.io);

var f = new File('somefile.txt');  // create a java.io.File object

For further details on the JavaScript engine provided by Java, consult the
Java Scripting guide:

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/scripting/programmer_guide/index.html

Syntax

sencha js String \
          String[]...

sencha manifest

This category provides commands to manage application manifests.

Commands

create - Generate a list of metadata for all classes found in the given directories

sencha manifest create

This command generates a list of metadata for all classes.

Options

--output-path, -o - The file path to write the results to in JSON format.
--path, -p - The directory path(s) that contains all classes

Syntax

sencha manifest create [options] output-path

sencha package

These commands manage packages in the local repository.

These commands are not typically used directly because application requirements
are automatically used by sencha app build and sencha app refresh --packages
to handle these details.

Using Packages

The most common commands needed to use packages are those that connect your
local package repository to remote repositories. By default, the local repo has
one remote repository defined that points at Sencha's package repository.

To add, remove or display these connections see:

sencha help package repo

Authoring Packages

When authoring packages for others to use in their applications, however, these
commands are involved. In particular, you must first initialize your local
package repository. This is because the local repository is automatically
initialized "anonymously". In this state, the local repository can only be used
to retrieve and cache other packages. To create and publish packages, the local
repository must be initialized with a name and an optional email address.

This name is not required to be globally unique, but it is a good idea to use a
name that is unique and meaningful as a package author.

sencha repository init -name "My Company, Inc."

sencha repository init -name mySenchaForumId

For details see:

sencha help repository init

Commands

add - Adds a package file (.pkg) to the local repository
build - Builds the current package
extract - Extracts the contents of a package to an output folder
get - Get a package from a remote repository
list - Lists packages in the repository
remove - Removes a package from the local repository
upgrade - Upgrades the current pacakge

sencha package add

Adds a new package file ("*.pkg") to the local repository. These packages will
be signed automatically if their creator property matches the name associated
with the local repository.

Once a package is added to the local repository, any repository that points to
this repository as a remote repository will be able to download the package.

The sencha package build process generates an appropriate ".pkg" file in the
workspace.build.dir.

Syntax

sencha package add pkgFile

Where:

pkgFile - The path to the package file (e.g., path/file.pkg)

sencha package build

This command invokes the build process for the current package. Similar to an
application and sencha app build, this command builds the current package (as
defined by the current folder).

sencha package build

Options

--clean, -c - Remove previous build output prior to executing build

Syntax

sencha package build [options]

sencha package extract

This command extracts a package or packages from the repository. If necessary
the packages will be downloaded from remote repositories and cached locally for
future use.

NOTE: This is not typically executed manually but is handle automatically
as part of the build process based on the "requires" found in "app.json" and/or
"package.json".

To extract a package named "foo" at version "1.2" to a specified location:

sencha package extract -todir=/some/path foo@1.2

This will create "/some/path/foo". To recursively extract packages required
by "foo", you would do this:

sencha package extract -recurse -todir=/some/path foo@1.2

When complete, "foo" and all of its required packages will reside in the folder
specified.

NOTE: It is recommended to use -todir and allow the package name to be used
as the immediate subdirectory of that folder. The -outdir option allows you to
strip off this directory but prevents recursive extraction as a result.

Options

--clean, -c - Delete any files in the output folder before extracting
--force, -f - Ignore local copy and fetch from remote repository
--outdir, -o - The output folder for the extracted package contents
--recurse, -r - Also get all required packages recursively
--todir, -t - The output folder for the extracted package folder

Syntax

sencha package extract [options] packages...

Where:

packages - The names/versions of the packages to extract

sencha package get

This command ensures that a specified package is locally available. This does
not extract the package to a particular location, but rather, enables apps or
other packages to get the package from the local repository (that is, without
downloading it).

For example, to ensure that "foo" and "bar" are available locally:

sencha package get foo bar

To get all packages required by those specified packages:

sencha package get -recursive foo bar

Options

--force, -f - Ignore local copy and (re)fetch from remote repository
--recurse, -r - Also get all required packages recursively

Syntax

sencha package get [options] packages...

Where:

packages - One or more packages/versions to fetch locally

sencha package list

This command lists packages in the repository. To list available packages
simply execute:

sencha package list

To list locally available packages (no download required), do this:

sencha package list .

Otherwise, you can specify the names of package repositories to list:

sencha package list sencha

The above will list the contents of the Sencha Cmd Package Repository.

Syntax

sencha package list names...

Where:

names - The repos to list (blank for all, or remote names or "." for local)

sencha package remove

Removes one or more packages from the local repository.

Removes version 1.2 of the package "foo":

sencha package remove foo@1.2

Remove all versions of "foo"

sencha package remove foo@...

Syntax

sencha package remove packageNames...

Where:

packageNames - One or more packages/versions to remove

sencha package repository

These commands manage the local repository and its connections to remote
repositories.

Remote Repositories

The primary role of the local repository is as a cache of packages that it
downloads from one or more specified remote repositories. By default, Sencha
Cmd adds the Sencha package repository as a remote repository. Using these
commands you can manage these connections.

This command adds a remote repository connection named "foo":

sencha repo add foo http://coolstuff.foo/packages

Following this command, any packages contained in this repository will be
available. Typically these packages are used by adding their name (and possibly
version) to your application's "app.json" in its requires array.

{
    requires: [
        'cool-package@2.1'
    ]
}

Then:

sencha app build

The above addition will require version 2.1 of "cool-package". The remote
repository added above will be checked for this package, and if found, it is
downloaded to the local repository and cached there as well as extracted to
your app's"packages/cool-package" folder and automatically integrated in to
your build.

Authoring Packages

To author packages for others to use in their applications, you will need to
initialize your local repository with your name:

sencha repo init -name "My Company, Inc."

See these for more details:

sencha help package
sencha help repo init

Commands

add - Add a remote repository connection
init - Initializes the local package repository
list - List remote repository connections
remove - Remove a remote repository connection
show - Show details for a repository
sync - Clears caches to force refetching for a remote repository

sencha package repository add

Adds a remote repository connection. Once added, packages from that repository
will be available to applications for use.

sencha repo add foo http://foo.bar/pkgs

Options

--address, -a - The address (or URL) for the remote repository
--name, -n - The name for the remote connection

Syntax

sencha package repository add [options] name \
                                        address

sencha package repository init

Initializes the local repository. The local repository is used to cache local
copies of packages (potentially for multiple versions).

NOTE: This step is not typically necessary because the local repository is
automatically initialized in "anonymous" mode. This command is needed only if
you want to publish packages for others to use in their application. To publish
packages you must initial the local repository and provide a name:

sencha repository init -name "My Company, Inc." -email me@foo.com

Beyond initializing the repository file structures, this command also generates
a public/private key pair and stores these in the local repository. The private
key is used to sign packages added to this local repository.

For details on adding packages:

sencha help package add

Private Key

Packages added to the local repository with a creator property equal to the
name given to sencha repository init will be signed using the private key
stored in the local repository.

In this release of Sencha Cmd, these signatures are only used to test package
integrity. You can backup this key if desired, but a new key can be regenerated
by running sencha repo init at any time. In future versions it may be more
important to backup your private key.

Remote Access

Making the local package repository available as a remote repository for others
to access requires some knowledge of the disk structure of the repository. By
default, Sencha Cmd creates the local repository adjacent to its installation
folder. For example, given the following location of Sencha Cmd:

/Users/myself/bin/Sencha/Cmd/3.1.0.200/

The local respository is located at:

/Users/myself/bin/Sencha/Cmd/repo

This is to allow your local repository to be used by newer versions of Sencha
Cmd. The folder to publish to others as an HTTP URL is:

/Users/myself/bin/Sencha/Cmd/repo/pkgs

IMPORTANT: Do NOT expose the parent folder of "pkgs" - that folder holds
private information (such as your private key). Further, Sencha Cmd will not
recognize the structure as a valid remote repository.

If you want to host the repository on a public server, simply copy the "pkgs"
folder to a web server and share the HTTP address.

Options

--email, -em - The email address for the owner of the local repository
--expiration, -ex - The number of years before the key pair becomes invalid
--keybits, -k - The number of bits for the public/private key pair
--name, -n - The name for the owner of the local repository

Syntax

sencha package repository init [options]

sencha package repository list

may be needed if there something known to have been added to a remote repo but
has not yet shown up in the catalog on this machine.

sencha repo sync someremote

To resynchronize with all remote repositories:

sencha repo sync

Options

--name, -n - The name for the remote connection (blank for all)

Syntax

These commands manage the local repository and its connections to remote
repositories.

Remote Repositories

This command adds a remote repository connection named "foo":

sencha repo add foo http://coolstuff.foo/packages

{
    requires: [
        'cool-package@2.1'
    ]
}

sencha theme

This category contains low-level commands for managing themes. Typically these
operations are handled by sencha app build and/or sencha package build.

Commands

build - Builds a custom theme from a given page
capture - Capture an image and slicer manfiest for a theme
slice - Generates image slices from a given image directed by a JSON manifest

sencha theme build

This command will build the specified theme's image sprites.

IMPORTANT: This command should only be used for Ext JS 4.1 applications. For
Ext JS 4.2 applications, themes are now packages and should be managed using
the sencha package build process.

Options

--environment, -en - The build environment (e.g., production or testing)
--output-path, -o - The destination path for the sliced images
--page, -p - The page to slice
--theme-name, -t - The name of the theme to build

Syntax

sencha theme build [options] [theme-name] \
                             [environment]

sencha theme capture

This command will capture an image and slice manifest for a specified page.

It is rarely necessary to call this command directly as it is part of the theme
build process. In Ext JS 4.2 applications or theme packages, this command is
called by the build script's slice step. In Ext JS 4.1 applications this is
called for each application theme or directly by the 'sencha theme build`
command.

For example, this is roughly the command performed by the slice step for a
theme package:

sencha theme capture -page sass/example/theme.html \
                     -image build/theme-capture.png \
                     -manifest build/theme-capture.json

Once the image and slicer manifest are produced, the sencha fs slice command
