Azion CLI link

The linking process adapts the project so it’s linked to Azion and can be deployed as an edge application. It creates the necessary configurations for future build and deployment of the application on the edge.

Usage

Terminal window
azion link

Output

Confirm the linking of the project to Azion:

Terminal window
? Do you want to link /cli-examples/effervescent_moon to Azion? (y/N)

Enter the desired name for your edge application:

Terminal window
? (Hit enter to accept the suggested name in parenthesis) Your application's name:  (nimble-tyrion)

Choose a preset:

Terminal window
? Choose a preset:  [Use arrows to move, type to filter]
> Angular
  Astro
  Docusaurus
  Eleventy
  Emscripten
  Gatsby
  Hexo
  Html
  Hugo
  Javascript
  Jekyll
  Next
  React
  Rustwasm
  Svelte
  Typescript
  Vitepress
  Vue

Now, the application will be linked to Azion. Different processes occur based on the selected preset, so you need to answer the interactions that are presented.

Choose if you want to run the application locally or not:

Terminal window
? Do you want to start a local development server? (y/N)
Terminal window
? Do you want to deploy your project? No
