CLI Referenceinit

lizard init

Create or select a project and link it to the current directory.

Usage

lizard init [flags]

Flags

FlagDescription
-n, --name <name>Project name (create if missing)
-w, --workspace <ws>Workspace id, slug, or name
--forceRelink even if already linked

Examples

Link the current directory interactively

lizard init

Link explicitly in CI

lizard up will run init for you on a TTY, but in a non-TTY (CI) environment it errors instead of silently creating a project. Link explicitly first:

export LIZARD_TOKEN=lzd_xxx
lizard init --name my-project
lizard up --ci --service api

Relink a directory that’s already linked

lizard init --name my-project --force
