v1.1.0-rc.0

PDFMonkey CLI v1.1.0-rc.0 Release Notes

We're thrilled to announce PDFMonkey CLI v1.1.0-rc.0, packed with awesomeness!

🚨 Upgrade Notes

If you're upgrading from v1.0.x, your existing templates may not have the .pdfmonkey.json metadata file. The CLI will still work with them, but for the best experience, you might want to reinitialize them:

pdfmonkey template init YOUR_TEMPLATE_ID -p ./your-existing-template

Be sure to back up your existing templates before running this command. Just in case.

🌟 What's New

Multi-Resource Init & Watch

You can now initialize multiple resources in a row, with an even easier UI, using a single command:

pdfmonkey init

In the same spirit, you can now watch multiple resources simultaneously (1 template + multiple snippets):

pdfmonkey watch

Snippets Management

Full support for PDFMonkey snippets! Initialize and watch snippets just like templates:

pdfmonkey snippet init
pdfmonkey snippet watch ./my-snippet

Resource-Based Commands

More intuitive command structure with resource-specific subcommands:

pdfmonkey template init
pdfmonkey template watch

Pro tip: Most of the time using pdfmonkey init and pdfmonkey watch provides a more pleasant experience.

Template & Snippet names as paths

When you manage several templates and snippets, remembering their ID is not always easy. With our new metadata setup, you can now name you folders however you want, the CLI will find the right resource.

🚀 Get Started

This release being an RC (Release Candidate), you can install it using the next tag:

npm install -g @pdfmonkey/cli@next

Happy PDFing! 📝✨
