CKBUILDER(1)

✨ CKBUILDER ✨

okay bestie, so this is ckbuilder — the command line builder for CKEditor 🎀 it lives in the ckbuilder section 1 of the manual (commands, iykyk).

💖 NAME 💖

ckbuilder — command line builder for CKEditor 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

It creates a CKEditor build in the DST folder using the source files from the SRC folder 🦋

And listen, there's a lil prerequisite situation: the build configuration file (build-config.js) is required in order to create the build package, and it's the thing that holds the list of plugins to include 📋 no config file, no build, periodt.

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

ckbuilder --build SRC DST (options...)

ckbuilder --build-skin SRC DST (options...)

ckbuilder --generate-build-config SRC (options...)

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• --overwrite — overwrite target folder if exists

🧚 EXAMPLES 🧚

like, literally copy-paste these, they ate 🔥

ckbuilder --build ckeditor-dev release --version 4.0

ckbuilder --build-skin skins/myskin target_dir

ckbuilder --generate-build-config ckeditor-dev

ngl, --no-tar is the default, so if you're out here wanting a tar.gz you gotta do the extra thing 💀 and --no-ie-checks is only about silencing those IE syntax warnings, not about magic-ing your code into being valid 🫶

that's the whole vibe check, bestie 👑 ckbuilder 2.3.0, from February 2016 — go forth and build something iconic 💖✨🎀
