Create a new project​

To create a project use the create command.

apigear project create -d <project-name>

you can prefix a project name with a path in which you'd like your project to be created.

This command creates a folder with the apigear files in it:

  • module an example file type with the example interface description
  • solution a solution file used for generation configuration
  • simulation with example simulation for the example interface

}

The folder property specifies the folder where the project configuration is stored. The default value is apigear.
