Command

build-tools build

Runs the build process.

Positionals
projects optional Comma separated list of projects to build. [usage]
Options
--once Run the build process only once.
--production Compile the assets for production.
--quiet Runs the build process with reduced output.

Individual Projects

You can define a project by using the project positional when using the build command by placing the project name after the build command.

build-tools build my-plugin

The project positional can also take comma separated values if you need to build more than one project at a given time.

build-tools build my-plugin,my-theme

Notice that each defined project is not a full path, nor an entry point. We use the directory name as the project and the build tools then look for those as defined in the Structuring Your Project guide, seeking through client-mu-plugins,plugins and themes.

Site-wide

If you need to build an entire sites worth of projects, which will often be the case come deployment, you can build all applicable projects by running the command from within your wp-content directory.

build-tools build
