These are the Firebase Command Line (CLI) Tools. They can be used to:
|
|
|
|
* Administer your Firebase account
|
|
* Interact with [Firebase Hosting](https://www.firebase.com/hosting.html), our product to host your
|
|
static HTML, JS, CSS, images, etc.
|
|
|
|
To get started with the Firebase CLI, [read through our hosting quickstart guide](https://www.firebase.com/docs/hosting.html).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To install the Firebase CLI, you first need to [sign up for a Firebase account](https://www.firebase.com/signup/).
|
|
|
|
Then you need to install [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) and [npm](https://npmjs.org/). Note that
|
|
installing Node.js should install npm as well.
|
|
|
|
Once npm is installed, get the Firebase CLI by running the following command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install -g firebase-tools
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will provide you with the globally accessible `firebase` command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Commands
|
|
|
|
The command `firebase --help` lists the available commands and `firebase <command> --help` shows
|
|
more details for an individual command.
|
|
|
|
You can get more information about the available commands in our
|
|
[command line documentation](https://www.firebase.com/docs/hosting/command-line-tool.html).
