XState CLI (Command Line Interface)​

The @xstate/cli (Command Line Interface) package contains commands for running typegen. The package is small right now, but we plan to add more features.

Installation​

Run npm install @xstate/cli.

Commands​

xstate typegen <files>​

Use the following command to run the typegen against a glob.

xstate typegen "src/**/*.ts?(x)"

Running typegen will scan every targeted file and generate a typegen file to accompany it. It will also import the typegen into your file, as described in our typegen documentation.

Options​

xstate typegen "src/**/*.ts?(x)" --watch

Runs the task on a watch, monitoring for changed files and running the typegen script against them.
