The entry point of current cli is used only from
bin/tns
. In fact themain
entry in package.json is used when you want to require the module, but CLI is never required. It's installed globally and spawned from it's bin dir (bin
key in package.json defines which is the "entry" point when package is installed globally).So I've changed the entry point to a file, that does not use commandDispatcher - when requiring {N} CLI as library, we'll not execute commands.
In order to allow executing specific device operations (like device detection through events), require the mobile-cli-lib's appbuilder bootstrap in the entry point. This will be fixed with other PR's and finally we'll not have to require this bootstrap.
