Config

ig config

Overview

The ig config command performs read and write operation on the Ignite UI CLI configuration settings.

Ignite UI CLI stores configuration in an ignite-ui-cli.json file matching the Config interface. Project structures created with Ignite UI CLI include such a file as local configuration. A per-user file can provide global defaults in case ig config is called with a --global flag . The global ignite-ui-cli.json file is stored under the current user home directory - usually /home/<user> for Unix and C:\Users\<user> for Windows.

The config command is split into sub-commands for each operation:

ig config <get|set|add> <property> [value]

The following properties are available globally:

Property	Type	Description
igPackageRegistry	string	The URL of the Infragistics Npm package registry
customTemplates	string[]	A list of paths to load additional templates from
