Reporch IDE
Use the terminal
Run workspace commands and inspect output and exit state.
Overview
Terminal commands run inside the connected DevBox. Install, build, and development server commands use the current directory and project configuration.
Before you start
- A workspace in the ready state
- The command required by the project
Steps
1. Open Terminal
Open the Terminal panel from the lower workspace or menu.
2. Confirm location
Use pwd and a file listing command to confirm the working directory.
3. Run a command
Enter the install or start command and press Enter.
4. Read output
Review standard output, errors, and the exit state. Keep a long-running server open while it is needed.
Expected result
- Command output appears in execution order.
- When a development server opens a port, its service can be opened in Preview.
Troubleshooting
- If a command is missing, check the template and the project package scripts or runtime.
- If the port is occupied, stop the earlier process or reuse its preview.
