Command Line

Phing execution on the command line is simple. Just change to the directory where your buildfile resides and type

$ phing [target [target2 [target3] ...]]

at the command line (where [target...] are the target(s) you want to be executed). If no target is specified Phing will try to execute the default target, as specified in the project tag. When calling multipe targets, Phing will invoke each target independently of the other targets. Optionally, you may specify command line arguments as listed in Appendix A.

For example, the following command line calls the default buildscript build.xml using the default target with the property ftp.upload set to true.

$ phing -Dftp.upload=true
