Configure your command line options

Last modified: September 13th, 2024

Command line options instruct CloudCannon how to run your SSG and your Site.

You can configure the following options:

  • Install Command — the command to install any dependencies required for your Site.
  • Build Command — the command to build your Site.
  • Output Path — the location your Site will build to.

If you have yet to configure your first Site build, CloudCannon will suggest command line options based on your SSG and the contents of your Site files.

To configure your command line options:

  1. Navigate to the Build configuration page under Site Settings.
  2. Under Command line options, enter your Install Command, Build Command, and Output Path.
  3. Click the Update Site button.
A screenshot of the Build Configurations page shows text fields for configuring your command line options.

Command line options are often used in conjunction with environment variables. For more information, please read our documentation on configuring your environment variables.
