CLI

n8n-compose's CLI exposes three commands as of current, build, diff, and import. For full documentation see the @n8n-compose/cli specific readme.

Build

For building an n8n workflow, either based on a typescript file calling defineWorkflow, or the plain configuration JSON.

Usage:

n8n-compose build <entryPoint> [options]

Diff

For finding out what would change in the generated workflow if you were to run n8n-compose build on the file.

Usage:

n8n-compose diff <filePath> [options]

Import

For converting a workflow JSON file as exported from n8n into an n8n-compose compatible configuration.

Usage:

n8n-compose import <filePath> [options]
