Yulio CLI

1.0.29 verified Sat May 09 auth: no javascript

yulio-cli (v1.0.29) is the official CLI for Yulio, a SaaS starter kit. It scaffolds production-ready full-stack projects with a NestJS backend and optional Next.js frontend, including auth, database (MongoDB Atlas, Supabase, Neon), email, and deployment config. Commands: init, add (mail, oauth, payments, storage), db setup, login, list. Requires Node.js 18+ and a Yulio account. Differentiator: opinionated, fully wired project generator with built-in module additions. Released infrequently (last update 2024). Active development.

Common errors

error yulio: command not found ↓

cause The CLI was not installed globally or the package name was used incorrectly as the command.

fix

Install globally: npm install -g yulio-cli, then use 'yulio'.

error Error: Requires Node.js >=18 ↓

cause Running on an older Node.js version.

fix

Upgrade Node.js to version 18 or later.

error ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '.env.example' ↓

cause Running 'yulio add' in a directory that is not a Yulio project (e.g., missing '.env.example').

fix

Run 'yulio add' from the root of a project scaffolded with 'yulio init'.

Warnings

gotcha The CLI binary is named 'yulio', not 'yulio-cli'. Running 'yulio-cli' will fail unless npx is used. ↓

fix Use 'yulio' command or 'npx yulio-cli'.

gotcha Local install (npm install --save-dev yulio-cli) does not expose the 'yulio' command globally. Users may expect it to work like a project script. ↓

fix Install globally with -g flag or use npx.

breaking Requires Node.js >=18. Older Node versions will produce errors. ↓

fix Upgrade Node.js to version 18 or higher.

deprecated No known deprecated features yet in v1.0.29. ↓

fix N/A

gotcha A Yulio account is required for full functionality; running 'yulio init' without login may fail or prompt login. ↓

fix Run 'yulio login' first.

Install

npm install yulio-cli

yarn add yulio-cli

pnpm add yulio-cli

Imports

yulio CLI (global command)

wrong

npm install yulio-cli (local install does not expose 'yulio' command globally by default)

correct

npm install -g yulio-cli

yulio init (command)
wrong
```
yulio-cli init (binary name is 'yulio' not 'yulio-cli')
```
correct
```
yulio init
```
The package name is 'yulio-cli' but the CLI binary is 'yulio'.

npx usage

wrong

npx yulio init (npm package name mismatch; npx only works with package name)

npx yulio-cli init

Use npx yulio-cli to run the package without global install.

Quickstart

Installs the CLI globally, scaffolds a new project interactively, then runs the development server.

npm install -g yulio-cli
yulio init
# Follow prompts to scaffold a project
cd my-project
npm run start:dev
