Forest CLI commands

You've seen in the previous section how developing on Forest Admin leverages our powerful Forest CLI to manage your UI changes.

Installing Forest CLI

To install Forest CLI, run the following command in your terminal:

npm install -g forest-cli

For further details on the package, check out this page ↗.

Using Forest CLI

In the following pages, we'll cover all available Forest CLI commands in detail, from introduction to advanced usage. For now, there are 6 commands:

• login

• init

• branch

• switch

• set-origin

• push

• environments:reset

• deploy

Some additional commands might be added in the future. In the meantime, those should be largely sufficient to manage your development workflow.

Be aware that almost all commands take the FOREST_ENV_SECRET env variable, provided on the command or inside your .env file, to know in which environment the command is run.
