Command-line interface for Arcane project scaffolding and script running.

Installation

dart pub global activate oracular

Commands

Project Creation

oracular                          # Interactive wizard
oracular create app               # Create new project
oracular create templates         # List available templates

Guided Next Steps

Every generated project root gets a GET_STARTED.md with exact commands, local folders, and Firebase/Google console links.

oracular guide                    # Regenerate the setup guide
oracular guide --print            # Print the guide in the terminal
oracular open guide               # Open GET_STARTED.md
oracular open app                 # Open the main app folder
oracular open firebase            # Open Firebase project overview
oracular open auth                # Open Firebase Authentication
oracular open firestore           # Open Firestore Database
oracular open storage             # Open Firebase Storage
oracular open hosting             # Open Firebase Hosting
oracular open server              # Open the server package
oracular open service-account     # Open Firebase service account keys
oracular open cloud-run           # Open Google Cloud Run

Script Runner

Run scripts from pubspec.yaml with fuzzy matching:

oracular scripts list             # List all available scripts
oracular scripts exec <name>      # Execute a script
oracular scripts exec build       # Exact match
oracular scripts exec br          # Abbreviation (build_runner)
oracular scripts exec tv          # Abbreviation (test_verbose)
oracular scripts exec --stream    # Stream output in real-time

Matching modes:

• Exact: build_runner
• Case-insensitive: Build_Runner
• Prefix: build (if unique)
• Contains: runner (if unique)
• Abbreviation: br = build_runner, df = deploy_firebase

Tool Verification

oracular check tools              # Verify all required CLI tools
oracular check flutter            # Check Flutter installation
oracular check firebase           # Check Firebase CLI tools
oracular check docker             # Check Docker installation
oracular check gcloud             # Check Google Cloud SDK
oracular check server             # Check server deployment tools
oracular check doctor             # Run flutter doctor -v
oracular check billing            # Detect Spark vs Blaze billing plan

Firebase Deployment

End-to-end setup is one command:

oracular deploy firebase-setup-full   # Login → billing → bootstrap →
                                      # rules → web build → release +
                                      # beta hosting → server APIs →
                                      # cleanup. Idempotent — safe to
                                      # rerun. Works for Flutter web AND
                                      # both Jaspr modes (static + client).

Each stage is also independently re-runnable:

oracular deploy firebase-setup        # Alias for firebase-setup-full
oracular deploy firestore-init        # Create the default Firestore DB
oracular deploy storage-init          # Create the default Storage bucket
oracular deploy auth-providers        # Open console hand-off for Email
                                      # / Google providers
oracular deploy firestore             # Deploy Firestore rules/indexes
oracular deploy storage               # Deploy Storage rules
oracular deploy hosting-init          # Create `<project>-beta` site +
                                      # apply firebase target:apply
oracular deploy hosting               # Build web & deploy release channel
oracular deploy hosting-beta          # Build web & deploy beta channel
oracular deploy generate-configs      # Regenerate firebase.json/.firebaserc
oracular deploy all                   # Deploy all Firebase rules at once

Server Deployment & Cleanup

oracular deploy server-setup          # Generate Dockerfiles & scripts
oracular deploy server-build          # Build production Docker image
oracular deploy artifact-cleanup      # Ensure Artifact Registry repo +
                                      # apply cleanup policy (keeps N
                                      # most-recent + deletes >Dd images)
oracular deploy cloudrun-prune        # Cap Cloud Run revisions at N
                                      # (preserves traffic-serving revs)

The generated script_deploy.sh (in your server package) runs both cleanup steps automatically after every push to keep Artifact Registry storage and Cloud Run revision counts bounded.

Local Testing

# Activate from source
dart pub global activate . --source=path

# Test commands
oracular --help
oracular scripts list

# Deactivate
dart pub global deactivate oracular

Watch Mode

Adding Commands

1. Create file in lib/commands/

import 'package:cli_annotations/cli_annotations.dart';
import 'package:fast_log/fast_log.dart';

part 'my_command.g.dart';

@cliSubcommand
class MyCommand extends _$MyCommand {
  @cliCommand
  Future<void> action(String param, {bool flag = false}) async {
    info("Running with $param, flag=$flag");
  }
}

2. Register in lib/oracular.dart

import 'commands/my_command.dart';

// In OracularRunner class:
@cliMount
MyCommand get my => MyCommand();

3. Generate code

dart run build_runner build --delete-conflicting-outputs
