# Firebase CLI usage
|
|
|
|
The Firebase CLI (`firebase-tools`) is the primary tool for managing Firebase
|
|
projects and resources from the command line.
|
|
|
|
**Use npx for Firebase CLI commands**: To ensure you always use the latest
|
|
version of the Firebase CLI, always run commands with
|
|
`npx -y firebase-tools@latest` instead of just `firebase`. (e.g., use
|
|
`npx -y firebase-tools@latest --version` instead of `firebase --version`).
|
|
|
|
## Exploring commands
|
|
|
|
The Firebase CLI documents itself. Use help commands to discover functionality.
|
|
|
|
- **Global help**: List all available commands and categories:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx -y firebase-tools@latest --help
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Command help**: Get detailed usage for a specific command:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npx -y firebase-tools@latest [command] --help
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Example:
|
|
npx -y firebase-tools@latest deploy --help
|
|
npx -y firebase-tools@latest firestore:indexes --help
|
|
``` |
