title: Command line tools id: cli

This document covers the CLI tools.

Installation

The command line tools can be installed using npm as follows

$ npm install -g @gmod/jbrowse-cli

You can test your installation with

$ jbrowse --version

It is also possible to do one-off executions using npx, e.g.

npx @gmod/jbrowse-cli create myfolder

It is likely preferable in most cases to install the tools first however
