Start CLI

The starrail package provides its own standalone CLI environment. You may access the CLI by running:

> starrail

This will bring up the StarRail CLI environment where all the commands can be executed without the starrail prefix.

ABC

The StarRail CLI environment facilitates efficient execution of the package's supported commands (see Usage Guide section below). Although all commands can be executed directly outside of the CLI environment in any terminal, activating the StarRail CLI allows you to run commands without the starrail prefix.

Note

Inside of the StarRail CLI:

> about

Outside of the StarRail CLI (any terminal):

> starrail about

For this guide, all following commands will be shown as if the CLI environment has not been activated.
