# sencha ## sencha ant Invokes the embedded version of Apache Ant providing the `cmd.dir` property to access Sencha Cmd using the following `taskdef`: 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. ### Categories * `package` - Packages a Sencha Touch application for native app stores ### 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/"` 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] \ [archive] ## sencha app package This category contains various commands for packing application for deployment on phones using the Sencha Mobile Packager. ### Commands * `build` - Packages an app with the given configuration file * `generate` - Generates a Packager configuration JSON file * `run` - Packages and tries to run the application for the given configuration JSON file ## sencha app package build This command creates a native package of the current application. ### Options * `--path`, `-p` - the path to the configuration file ### Syntax sencha app package build [options] path ## sencha app package generate This command generates a Packager configuration JSON file. ### Options * `--path`, `-p` - the path to the configuration file ### Syntax sencha app package generate [options] path ## sencha app package run This command packages and runs the current application. ### Options * `--path`, `-p` - the path to the configuration file ### Syntax sencha app package run [options] path ## sencha app refresh This command regenerates the metadata file containing "bootstrap" data for the dynamic loader and class system. This must be done any time a class is added, renamed or removed. This command can also update any required packages if you have added package requirements to your application.

This will effect any other applications in this workspace using the same framework (i.e., "ext" or "touch"). To upgrade just the generate scaffolding of your application to a new version of Sencha Cmd and not the framework in use, do this: sencha app upgrade --noframework ### Options * `--noappjs`, `-noa` - Disable upgrade of app.js * `--noframework`, `-nof` - Upgrade only the Sencha Cmd scaffolding and not the SDK * `--path`, `-p` - The path to the framework to which to upgrade ### Syntax sencha app upgrade [options] [path] ## sencha build This command is used to process a legacy JSBuilder ("jsb") file. DEPRECATED: This command is provided for backwards compatibility with previous releases. It is highly recommended to migrate applications to the new `compile` command and discontinue use of this command. ### Syntax sencha build ## sencha compass ### Options * `--native`, `-n` - Enables / disables calls to system installed MRI compass * `--ruby-path`, `-r` - set the path to MRI ruby executable ## sencha compile This command category provides JavaScript compilation commands. The `compile` category maintains compilation state across its sub-commands so using `and` to connect sub-commands can provide significant time savings compared to making repeated calls. ### Options * `--classpath`, `-cl` - Add one or more folders to the classpath * `--debug`, `-d` - Enable the debug option for the js directive parser * `--ignore`, `-ig` - Ignore files in the classpath with names containing substrings (comma separated) * `--options`, `-o` - Sets options for the js directive parser (name:value,...) * `--prefix`, `-p` - The file with header or license prefix to remove from source files ### Commands * `concatenate` - Produce output file by concatenating the files in the current set * `exclude` - Exclude files from the current set matching given criteria * `include` - Add files to the current set matching given criteria * `intersect` - Intersect specified saved sets to produce a new set * `metadata` - Generates information about the classes and files in the classpath * `page` - Compiles the content of a page of markup (html, jsp, php, etc) * `pop` - Pops the current set back to the most recently pushed set from the stack * `push` - Pushes the current set on to a stack for later pop to restore the current set * `restore` - Restores the enabled set of files from a previously saved set * `save` - Stores the currently enabled set of files by a given name * `show-ignored` - Shows any files being ignored in the classpath * `union` - Similar to include but selects only the files that match the given criteria ## sencha compile concatenate This command writes the current set to the specified output file. ### Options * `--append`, `-a` - Appends output to output file instead of overwriting output file * `--beautify`, `-b` - enables / disables beautification of sources after compilation * `--closure`, `-cl` - Compress generate file using Closure Compiler * `--compress`, `-co` - Compress generated file using default compressor (YUI) * `--output-file`, `-o` - The output file name (or $ for stdout) * `--remove-text-references`, `-r` - enables / disables reference optimization by converting string classnames to static references * `--strip-comments`, `-st` - Strip comments from the generated file * `--uglify`, `-u` - Compress generate file using uglify-js * `--yui`, `-y` - Compress generated file using YUI Compressor ### Syntax sencha compile concatenate [options] output-file ## sencha compile exclude This command removes from the current set any files matching the criteria. ### Options * `--all`, `-a` - Select all files in global cache (ignores other options) * `--class`, `-c` - Selects files according to the specified class names * `--file`, `-f` - Selects the specified file names (supports glob patterns) * `--namespace`, `-na` - Selects all files with class definitions in the given namespace(s) * `--not`, `-no` - Inverts the matching criteria * `--recursive`, `-r` - Enable traversal of dependency relationships when selecting files * `--set`, `-s` - Selects files from on a previously saved set (ignores other options) * `--tag`, `-t` - Selects all files with the specified '//@tag' values ### Syntax sencha compile exclude [options] ## sencha compile include This command adds the files matching the criteria to the current set. ### Options * `--all`, `-a` - Select all files in global cache (ignores other options) * `--class`, `-c` - Selects files according to the specified class names * `--file`, `-f` - Selects the specified file names (supports glob patterns) * `--namespace`, `-na` - Selects all files with class definitions in the given namespace(s) * `--not`, `-no` - Inverts the matching criteria * `--recursive`, `-r` - Enable traversal of dependency relationships when selecting files * `--set`, `-s` - Selects files from on a previously saved set (ignores other options) * `--tag`, `-t` - Selects all files with the specified '//@tag' values ### Syntax sencha compile include [options] ## sencha compile intersect This command produces as in the current set the files that are contained in all of the specified input sets.

If the `-name` option is specified, the dependency graph of all required files is saved as a file set with that name (see also the `save` command). If the `-name` option is not specified, all required files are instead written to the "all-classes.js" file. ### Options * `--append`, `-ap` - Appends output to output file instead of overwriting output file * `--beautify`, `-b` - enables / disables beautification of sources after compilation * `--classes-file`, `-cla` - the name of the js file containing the concatenated output * `--closure`, `-clo` - Compress generate file using Closure Compiler * `--compress`, `-co` - Compress generated file using default compressor (YUI) * `--input-file`, `-i` - the html page to process * `--name`, `-n` - sets a reference name for the page * `--output-page`, `-o` - the output html page * `--remove-text-references`, `-r` - enables / disables reference optimization by converting string classnames to static references * `--scripts`, `-sc` - inject the given script path into the generated markup ahead of the all classes file * `--strip-comments`, `-str` - Strip comments from the generated file * `--uglify`, `-u` - Compress generate file using uglify-js * `--yui`, `-y` - Compress generated file using YUI Compressor ### Syntax sencha compile page [options] output-page ## sencha compile pop This command restores the current set of files from the "stack". This state was previously put on the "stack" using the `push` command. sencha compile ... \ and push \ and ... \ and pop and ... Between the `push` and `pop` commands the current file set can be adjusted as needed and then restored for subsequent commands. ### Syntax sencha compile pop ## sencha compile push This command saves the current set of files on a "stack" to easily save and restore state. sencha compile ... \ and push \ and ... \ and pop and ... Between the `push` and `pop` commands the current file set can be adjusted as needed and then restored for subsequent commands. ### Syntax sencha compile push ## sencha compile restore ### Syntax sencha compile restore String ## sencha compile save ### Syntax sencha compile save String ## sencha compile show-ignored Displays a list of all files found in the `classpath` but matching an `-ignore` criteria. ### Syntax sencha compile show-ignored ## sencha compile union This command adds files matching the criteria to the current set. This is similar to the `include` command except that this command first removes all files from the current set. In other words, this command makes the current set equal to only those files that match the criteria. ### Options * `--all`, `-a` - Select all files in global cache (ignores other options) * `--class`, `-c` - Selects files according to the specified class names * `--file`, `-f` - Selects the specified file names (supports glob patterns) * `--namespace`, `-na` - Selects all files with class definitions in the given namespace(s) * `--not`, `-no` - Inverts the matching criteria * `--recursive`, `-r` - Enable traversal of dependency relationships when selecting files * `--set`, `-s` - Selects files from on a previously saved set (ignores other options) * `--tag`, `-t` - Selects all files with the specified '//@tag' values ### Syntax sencha compile union [options] ## 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 This category provides commands for manipulating files. ### Categories * `mirror` - Commands for making mirror images for RTL languages * `web` - Manages a simple HTTP file server ### Commands * `concatenate` - Concatenate multiple files into one * `difference` - Generates deltas between two files in JSON format * `minify` - Minify a JavaScript file * `slice` - Generates image slices from a given image directed by a JSON manifest ## 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 This command produced minified files using various back-end compressors. sencha fs minify -yui -from=in.js -to=out.js sencha fs minify -closure -from=in.js -to=out.js The legacy syntax is also supported: sencha fs minify -compressor=yuicompressor -from=in.js -to=out.js sencha fs minify -compressor=closurecompiler -from=in.js -to=out.js ### Options * `--closure`, `-cl` - Enable the Google Closure Compiler * `--from`, `-f` - The input js file to minify * `--to`, `-t` - The destination filename for minified output. * `--yui`, `-y` - Enable the YUI Compressor ### Syntax 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 * `--manifest`, `-m` - The slicer manifest (JSON) file * `--out-dir`, `-o` - The root folder to which sliced images are written * `--quantized`, `-q` - Enables image quantization (default is true) * `--tolerate-conflicts`, `-t` - Tolerate conflicts in slice manifest ### Syntax sencha fs slice [options] ## sencha fs web This category provides commands to manage a simple HTTP file server. ### Options * `--port`, `-p` - Set the port for the web server ### Commands * `start` - Starts a static file Web Server on a port * `stop` - Stops the local web server on the specific port ## sencha fs web start This command starts the Web server and routes requests to the specified files. For example: sencha fs web -port 8000 start -map foo=/path/to/foo,bar=/another/path 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 fs web stop ## sencha generate This category contains code generators used to generate applications as well as add new classes to the application. ### Commands * `app` - Generates a starter application * `controller` - Generates a Controller for the current application * `form` - Generates a Form for the current application (Sencha Touch Specific) * `model` - Generates a Model for the current application * `package` - Generates a starter package * `profile` - Generates a Profile for the current application (Sencha Touch Specific) * `theme` - Generates a theme page for slice operations (Ext JS Specific) * `view` - Generates a View for the current application (Ext JS Specific) * `workspace` - Initializes a multi-app workspace ## sencha generate app This command generates an empty application given a name and target folder. The application can be extended using other `sencha generate` commands (e.g., `sencha generate model`). Other application actions are provided in the `sencha app` category (e.g., `sencha app build`). ### Options * `--controller-name`, `-c` - The name of the default Controller * `--library`, `-l` - the pre-built library to use (core or all). Default: core * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the application to generate * `--path`, `-p` - The path for the generated application * `--starter`, `-s` - Overrides the default Starter App template directory * `--theme-name`, `-t` - The name of the defualt Theme * `--view-name`, `-v` - The name of the defalut View ### Syntax sencha generate app [options] name \ path ## sencha generate controller This command generates a new Controller and adds it to the current application. ### Options * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the Controller to generate ### Syntax sencha generate controller [options] name ## sencha generate form This command generates a new form and adds it to the current application. ### Options * `--fields`, `-f` - Comma separated list of "name:type" field pairs * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the Form to generate * `--xtype`, `-x` - The xtype for the form. Defaults to the lowercase form of the name. ### Syntax sencha generate form [options] name \ fields \ [xtype] ## sencha generate model This command generates a new Model class and adds it to the current application. ### Options * `--base`, `-b` - The base class of the Model (default: Ext.data.Model) * `--fields`, `-f` - Comma separated list of "name:type" field pairs * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the Model ### Syntax sencha generate model [options] name \ fields ## 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). ### Options * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the package to generate * `--type`, `-t` - The type of the package to generate (i.e., "code" or "theme") ### Syntax sencha generate package [options] name ## sencha generate profile This command generates a new Profile and adds it to the current application. NOTE: Sencha Touch only. ### Options * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the Profile to generate ### Syntax sencha generate profile [options] name ## 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 ### Syntax sencha generate theme [options] name ## sencha generate view This command generates a new View class and adds it to the current application. ### Options * `--name`, `-n` - The name of the View to generate ### Syntax sencha generate view [options] name ## sencha generate workspace This command generates a workspace for managing shared code across pages or applications. ### Options * `--path`, `-p` - Sets the target path for the workspace ### Syntax sencha generate workspace [options] [path] ## sencha help This command displays help for other commands. ### Example sencha help generate app ### Syntax sencha help command... ### Where: * `command` - The command path for which to display help (e.g., "generate app" ## sencha io These commands give you access to all the tools required to create, manage and deploy web applications in the io cloud. Sencha.io provides a backend-as-a-service that enables developers with a set of APIs that helps them build and run their applications. It allows you to build web applications using services provided through our client side SDKs, Ext JS and Sencha Touch. ### Commands * `app-set-group` - Sets the Auth Group associated with an app * `create-app` - Creates an app in Sencha.io * `create-auth-group` - Creates an auth group in Sencha.io * `create-version` - Creates a version of an app in Sencha.io * `deploy` - Deploys a version of an application in Sencha.io * `list-apps` - Lists all the apps for this developer in Sencha.io * `list-groups` - Lists Authentication Groups for a Developer * `list-versions` - Lists all the versions for this app in Sencha.io * `set-group-auth` - Sets an Auth Group's authentication mechanism * `undeploy` - Undeploys a version of an application in Sencha.io ## sencha io app-set-group Sets the Authentication Group which is associated with this Application. Only one Authentication Group may be associated with an Application at any given time. An Authentication Group controls which methods of authentication are available to users of your application. Users are members of Authentication Groups. ### Options * `--group-name`, `-g` - The Auth Group name to associate with this app ### Syntax sencha io app-set-group [options] [appName] \ [groupName] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io create-app Creates a new Application in the context of Sencha Io. ### Syntax sencha io create-app [appName] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io create-auth-group Creates a new Authentication Group in Sencha Io. ### Options * `--group-name`, `-g` - The Auth Group name to associate with this app ### Syntax sencha io create-auth-group [options] [groupName] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io create-version Creates a new Version of an Application. In doing so, an application `".zip"` file is uploaded to the cloud, along with a version tag and a description of this version. Once a version has been successfully created, it must be deployed before it can be accessed. ### Options * `--package-path`, `-pac` - The path to the package to be used in a new application version. * `--version-description`, `-version-d` - The version description for this new application version * `--version-tag`, `-version-t` - The version tag for this new application version ### Syntax sencha io create-version [options] [appName] \ [packagePath] \ [versionTag] \ [versionDescription] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io deploy Deploys a previously created version of an Application to the cloud. Once an application has been deployed, it becomes publicly accessible. ### Options * `--version-tag`, `-v` - The version tag to deploy ### Syntax sencha io deploy [options] [appName] \ [versionTag] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io list-apps Lists all Applications which are accessible by this Developer (in the current Team context). If the Developer is a member of multiple teams, they may have to switch Team contexts to see all of the Applications to which they have access. ### Syntax sencha io list-apps [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io list-groups Lists all the Authentication Groups to which this Developer currently has access. If the Developer is a member of multiple teams, they may have to switch Team contexts to see all of the Authentication Groups to which they have access. ### Syntax sencha io list-groups [username] \ [password] ## sencha io list-versions Lists all of the currently uploaded versions of an Application in the system. ### Syntax sencha io list-versions [appName] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha io set-group-auth Sets an Authentication Group's configuration. Acceptible values for Authentication Method are senchaio (which is on by default), facebook, and twitter. In order to use facebook or twitter, Application Keys and Secrets must be obtained for you application with those services, and then be provided as the final parameters of this command. ### Options * `--auth-method`, `-au` - The auth method to set * `--enabled`, `-e` - true/false, to enable the auth method * `--group-name`, `-g` - The group name to set * `--key`, `-k` - key for twitter/facebook auth * `--secret`, `-s` - secret for twitter/facebook auth ### Syntax sencha io set-group-auth [options] [groupName] \ [authMethod] \ [enabled] \ [username] \ [password] \ [key] \ [secret] ## sencha io undeploy Undeploys a previously deployed version of an Application. Once this has been done, the application will no longer be publicly available. ### Options * `--version-tag`, `-v` - The version tag to undeploy ### Syntax sencha io undeploy [options] [appName] \ [versionTag] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha iofs These commands gives you low level access to an io application's cloud hosting through an interface which ressembles a file system shell. ### Commands * `get` - Retrieve a remote file from the file system * `ls` - List all files in the file system for the supplied path * `put` - Upload a file to the remote filesystem * `rm` - Remove a file or directory from the file system ## sencha iofs get Retrieves a remote file from an Application's filesystem in Sencha io. ### Syntax sencha iofs get [appName] \ [path] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha iofs ls Lists the contents of a remote path in an Application's Sencha Io hosting. ### Syntax sencha iofs ls [appName] \ [path] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha iofs put Uploads a local file to a remote path in an Application's Sencha Io hosting. ### Options * `--content-type`, `-c` - The MIME content type of the file to be uploaded * `--local-path`, `-l` - The local path of the file to be uploaded ### Syntax sencha iofs put [options] [appName] \ [path] \ [localPath] \ [contentType] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## sencha iofs rm Removes a remote directory or file from an Application's remote Sencha Io hosting. ### Syntax sencha iofs rm [appName] \ [path] \ [username] \ [password] \ [teamName] ## 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 ### Categories * `repository` - Manage local repository and remote repository connections ### 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 Lists all remote repository connections. ### Syntax sencha package repository list ## sencha package repository remove Remove a remote repository from the local repository's list of remote repositories. For example, if a remote was previously added: sencha repo add foo http://foo.bar/pkgs This command will remove it: sencha repo remove foo `NOTE:` This command does not remove packages that you may have downloaded from this remote as they are now cached in the local repository. ### Options * `--name`, `-n` - The name for the remote connection ### Syntax sencha package repository remove [options] name ## sencha package repository show Shows information about a remote repository. To show information about the local repository: sencha repo show . To show information about a specific remote repository: sencha repo show some-remote The name given should match the name previously given to: sencha repo add some-remote ... ### Options * `--all`, `-a` - Include all details about the repository ### Syntax sencha package repository show [options] names... ### Where: * `names` - The name(s) of remote repositories (or "." for local) ## sencha package repository sync Forces (re)synchronization with a remote repository catalog. Normally this is done periodically and does not need to be manually synchronized. This command 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 sencha package repository sync [options] [name] ## sencha package upgrade Upgrades the current package to a newer SDK or Sencha Cmd version. This command must be run from the desired package's folder. ### Syntax sencha package upgrade ## sencha 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.

Normally this is done periodically and does not need to be manually synchronized. This command 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 sencha repository sync [options] [name] ## 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 extracts the background images and sprites required for Internet Explorer. ### Options * `--image-file`, `-i` - The output image (e.g. "theme-capture.png") * `--manifest`, `-m` - The output slice manifest (e.g. "theme-capture.json") * `--page`, `-p` - The page to load for capturing theme contents ### Syntax sencha theme capture [options] ## sencha theme 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 * `--manifest`, `-m` - The slicer manifest (JSON) file * `--out-dir`, `-o` - The root folder to which sliced images are written * `--quantized`, `-q` - Enables image quantization (default is true) * `--tolerate-conflicts`, `-t` - Tolerate conflicts in slice manifest ### Syntax sencha theme slice [options] ## sencha upgrade This command downloads and installs the current version of Sencha Cmd. Or you can specify the version you want to install as part of the command. The following command downloads and installs the current version of Sencha Cmd: sencha upgrade This command downloads a particular version: sencha upgrade 3.0.2.288 If the version requested is the already installed then this command will, by default, do nothing. This can be forced using `--force`: sencha upgrade --force If the version requested is the version in the `PATH`, the command will exit with a message saying that the current version cannot be upgraded. In this case the `--force` option is ignored. ### Options * `--beta`, `-b` - Check for the latest beta or RC version (vs stable release) * `--check`, `-c` - Only check for an upgrade but do not install it * `--force`, `-f` - Force a (re)install even if the version is already installed ### Syntax sencha upgrade [options] [version=""] ## sencha which This command display the location of Sencha Cmd. sencha which C:\Users\Me\bin\Sencha\Cmd\3.1.0.220 ### Options * `--output`, `-o` - Name of an output property file to write the location as a property * `--property`, `-p` - Name of the property to write to the output property file for the location ### Syntax sencha which [options]
