sibujs-cli

Command-line tool for creating and managing SibuJS projects.

Installation

npm install -g sibujs-cli
sibujs create my-app

Or use it directly with npx (no install needed):

npx sibujs create my-app

Commands

sibujs create [name]

Scaffold a new SibuJS project with Vite and TypeScript.

sibujs create my-app

Without flags the simplest possible app is created. Add flags to opt into features:

Flag	Description
--ui [theme]	Add sibujs-ui with a theme color (includes Tailwind CSS). Themes: default, blue, green, red, orange, amber, yellow, teal, purple, violet, rose
--router	Add routing with example pages
--tailwind	Add Tailwind CSS without sibujs-ui

Examples:

# Simplest app — no extras
sibujs create my-app

# With sibujs-ui using the blue theme (recommended)
sibujs create my-app --ui blue

# Full-featured project
sibujs create my-app --ui violet --router

# Tailwind only, no UI library
sibujs create my-app --tailwind

The generated project includes:

• vite.config.ts — Vite dev server with optional Tailwind plugin
• tsconfig.json — TypeScript with strict mode and bundler resolution
• src/main.ts — Entry point that mounts the root component
• src/App.ts — Starter app with a counter and todo list demo
• src/app.css — Tailwind imports or base reset styles

When --router is selected the project also includes:

• src/router.ts — Router setup with route definitions
• src/auth.ts — Simple auth state for the protected route example
• src/pages/Home.ts — Home page
• src/pages/About.ts — About page
• src/pages/Login.ts — Login page
• src/pages/Dashboard.ts — Protected dashboard with nested routes (Overview, Settings) using Outlet

When --ui is selected, sibujs-ui and the default theme are added automatically.

sibujs generate <type> <name> (alias: sibujs g)

Generate a new component file.

sibujs generate component MyButton
sibujs g component Navbar

Creates a component file in src/components/ (if the directory exists) or src/. Names are converted to PascalCase automatically.

Type	Description
component	Creates a SibuJS component function

sibujs dev

Start the Vite development server with hot module replacement.

sibujs dev
sibujs dev --port 4000
sibujs dev --host              # expose on all interfaces
sibujs dev --host 0.0.0.0

Flag	Description
--port <port>	Port number
--host [address]	Host address (bare --host exposes on 0.0.0.0)

sibujs build

Build the project for production using Vite.

sibujs build
sibujs build --ssr

Flag	Description
--ssr	Build for server-side rendering

sibujs preview

Serve the production build locally for testing.

sibujs preview
sibujs preview --port 5000

Flag	Description
--port <port>	Port number
--host [address]	Host address

sibujs lint [...files]

Lint source files for SibuJS best practices. Scans src/ by default, or specify files explicitly.

sibujs lint
sibujs lint src/App.ts src/components/Nav.ts

Built-in rules:

Rule	Description
no-hooks-in-conditionals	Prevents calling reactive primitives (signal, effect, derived, etc.) inside if/else blocks
no-direct-dom-mutation	Warns against .innerHTML = mutations — use reactive bindings instead
each-requires-key	Ensures each() calls include a key option for efficient list updates

sibujs analyze

Analyze the bundle size impact of all SibuJS and sibujs-ui imports in your project.

sibujs analyze

Output shows each imported API, its usage count, and estimated tree-shaken size. Tag factories (div, span, button, etc.) share a single factory function so they add near-zero cost per additional tag.

Typical workflow

sibujs create my-app --tailwind --router
cd my-app
sibujs dev          # develop with HMR
sibujs g component MyHeader   # generate a component
sibujs lint         # check for common mistakes
sibujs analyze      # review bundle impact
sibujs build        # production build
sibujs preview      # test the production build locally

Requirements

• Node.js >= 18.0.0
