Twilio Runtime CLI

Command line tools for developing Twilio Runtime applications. For available commands, usage instructions, and examples, run twlo help or twlo <command> --help.

Global Install

Install the twlo command globally with npm:

npm install -g twilio-runtime

Getting Started

Create a new Twilio Runtime project with:

twlo init my_project

Follow the interactive prompts to set up a new project. Change into the newly created directory and run the application with:

twlo serve

This will open a local development server on http://localhost:3000 - Functions created in the functions directory will be available at http://localhost:3000/your_function_file_name. Any assets in the assets directory will be available at http://localhost:3000/your_file.css. Assets will be loaded before Functions will, so watch your naming!

Deployment

Currently, there is no automatic deployment for Runtime components. We hope to offer that this year, but for now this tool provides a convenient local test harness for Functions and Assets that can be copy/pasted into the Runtime Console.
