The Wails CLI
The Wails CLI is a command line tool that allows you to create, build and run Wails applications. There are a number of commands related to tooling, such as icon generation and asset bundling.
Commands
run
The run command is for running tasks defined in Taskfile.yml.
| Flag | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
-t |
string | The name of the task to run |
generate
The generate command is used to generate resources and assets for your Wails project.
It can be used to generate many things including:
- application icons,
- resource files for Windows applications
- Info.plist files for macOS deployments
icon
The icon command generates icons for your project.
| Flag | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
-example |
bool | Generates example icon file (appicon.png) | |
-input |
string | The input image file | |
-sizes |
string | The sizes to generate in .ico file (comma separated) | "256,128,64,48,32,16" |
-windowsFilename |
string | The output filename for the Windows icon | icons.ico |
-macFilename |
string | The output filename for the Mac icon bundle | icons.icns |
wails generate icon -input myicon.png -sizes "32,64,128" -windowsFilename myicon.ico -macFilename myicon.icns
This will generate icons for mac and windows and save them in the current directory as myicon.ico
and myicons.icns.
syso
The syso command generates a Windows resource file (aka .syso).
wails generate syso <options>
| Flag | Type | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
-example |
bool | Generates example manifest & info files | |
-manifest |
string | The manifest file | |
-info |
string | The info.json file | |
-icon |
string | The icon file | |
-out |
string | The output filename for the syso file | wails.exe.syso |
-arch |
string | The target architecture (amd64,arm64,386) | runtime.GOOS |
If -example is provided, the command will generate example manifest and info files
in the current directory and exit.
If -manifest is provided, the command will use the provided manifest file to generate
the syso file.
If -info is provided, the command will use the provided info.json file to set the version
information in the syso file.
NOTE: We use winres to generate the syso file. Please refer to the winres documentation for more information.
NOTE: Whilst the tool will work for 32-bit Windows, it is not supported. Please use 64-bit.
