Installation

The command-line tool ships in the @wvb/cli package. It exposes two equivalent binaries, wvb and webview-bundle — use whichever reads better in your scripts.

Requirements

• Node.js 18.14.1 or later. Node 19 is supported from 19.7.0; Node 20 and newer work without restriction.
• The package is ESM-only. It runs from any project regardless of whether your own code is ESM or CommonJS.

Install

Add @wvb/cli as a dev dependency — it is a build-time tool, not a runtime dependency of your app.

npm install -D @wvb/cli

pnpm add -D @wvb/cli

yarn add -D @wvb/cli

Run

Invoke the binary through your package manager so it resolves from node_modules:

npx wvb --help

pnpm wvb --help

yarn wvb --help

Add commands to your package.json scripts for repeatable builds:

{
  "scripts": {
    "bundle": "wvb pack",
    "bundle:deploy": "wvb upload && wvb deploy"
  }
}

Verify

Print the installed version to confirm the binary resolves:

npx wvb --version

Next steps

• Create a wvb.config file so commands run with no arguments.
• Browse every command on the CLI overview.
• Call the same logic from JavaScript with the programmatic API.
