All you need to start using the VTEX platform.

What is this?

VTEX Toolbelt is a command-line program that gives you access to all of the features in the VTEX platform.

With it you can:

List, install and uninstall available apps in your account.
List, create and remove workspaces.
Promote a workspace to master, making it public in your account URL.
Develop new apps in link mode, using automatic synchronization.
Publish apps to the VTEX App Store.

Getting started

The VTEX Toolbelt can be installed via npm. If you don't have it installed, you can get it bundled with node:

Installing the VTEX Toolbelt

It's recommended that you install it globally using yarn:

Login

Start by using vtex login to receive your credentials and be able to access other features. Simply type this command and follow the instructions.

Using link

On an app directory, run vtex link and click on or copy the provided URL into your browser.

VTEX Toolbelt will now monitor your files for changes and sync them automatically.

Customizing your prompt

You can configure your terminal prompt to display relevant information about your current context, like which account you're logged into and which workspace you are currently using.

Just like knowing which git branch you're currently in, having this info in your prompt you help you avoid mistakes and be faster when using VTEX IO.

`bash` users

If you are a bash user you can customize your command prompt by running the following command:

echo "source $(npm root -g)/vtex/plugins/bash/vtex.bash" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "source $(npm root -g)/vtex/plugins/bash/prompt.bash" >> ~/.bashrc

For fine grained control, use only the first script and add __vtex_ps1 manually to your prompt.

`fish` users

If you want a pretty, ready-made Git + VTEX prompt you can copy plugins/fish/fish_prompt.fish to the ~/.config/fish/functions folder. To see the changes, simply restart your shell by typing fish.

cp (npm root -g)/vtex/plugins/fish/fish_prompt.fish ~/.config/fish/functions/
fish

PS: If you used yarn to install, you should replace (npm root -g) with (yarn global dir).

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I login?

You can use vtex login to login with your VTEX ID credentials or vtex logout if you're already logged in and want to change credentials.

When logging in, you will be asked for 3 things:

The account name of the store you wish to work on
Your VTEX ID e-mail
Your VTEX ID password

If you wish to work on another account, logout and login again with that account.

Note that link and publish implicitly checks if you're logged, and if you're not, it asks your credentials before proceeding.

How do I develop an app locally?

To develop an app locally, open the directory where your VTEX app is and then type:

vtex link

Toolbelt will upload all your app files to the developer environment, print an URL for your use and watch for any changes you make to the files, which will be automatically synchronized.

How do I ignore specific files or directories in my app so that they are not uploaded?

Create a .vtexignore file containing, on each line, paths you wish to ignore. If no .vtexignore is found, your .gitignore file is used instead.

How do I publish my App to the VTEX App Store?

To publish your VTEX app to VTEX App Store, use the vtex publish command. The app will be published under the vendor name.

I don't like the default toolbelt prompt customization. It's ugly or it messes with some of my other configurations, but I still want to be able to see the account and workspace I'm logged into. What do I do?

You can do so by adding the vtex_get_account and vtex_get_workspace commands to your PS1 environment variable the way it pleases you.
