TPIX CLI

A command-line client for managing Typst packages on the TPIX server. For more information about TPIX and TPIX CLI, please visit TPIX.

Installation

Use the install script to download and install the latest stable version if you are using Linux or MacOS:

curl -fsSL https://tpix.typstify.com/install.sh | bash

You can also download pre-built binaries from the GitHub Releases page.

For developers, use the following command to install tpix-cli:

go install github.com//tpix-cli@latest

Or build from source:

git clone https://github.com/typstify/tpix-cli.git
cd tpix-cli
make install

The binary will be built as tpix and installed in /usr/local/bin/ in Linux and MacOS.

Quick Start

# Login to TPIX server
tpix login

# Search for packages
tpix search "chart"

# Download a package
tpix get @namespace/package-name:1.0.0

# View package info
tpix info @namespace/package-name

Commands

Authentication

tpix login

Login using OAuth 2.0 device flow. Required for uploading packages.

Configuration

# Print cache directory path
tpix cache-path

# Set custom cache directory
tpix cache-path --set /custom/path

# Reset to default cache directory
tpix cache-path --set ""

The cache directory can also be set via the TYPST_PACKAGE_CACHE_PATH environment variable, which takes precedence over the saved config value.

Search & Discovery

# Search packages
tpix search "chart"

# Search in specific namespace
tpix search "chart" -n mynamespace

# Limit results
tpix search "chart" -l 10

Download Packages

# Download latest version (with transitive dependencies)
tpix get @namespace/package-name

# Download specific version
tpix get @namespace/package-name:1.0.0

# Download without fetching dependencies
tpix get @namespace/package-name:1.0.0 --no-deps

Pull Project Dependencies

# Scan current directory for .typ imports and fetch all dependencies
tpix pull

# Preview what would be fetched without downloading
tpix pull --dry-run

tpix pull recursively scans all .typ files in the current directory for #import "@namespace/name:version" statements, then downloads each package along with its transitive dependencies. Already-cached packages are skipped.

Package Info

# View package details
tpix info @namespace/package-name

Local Cache

# List cached packages
tpix list

# Remove cached package
tpix remove @namespace/package-name:1.0.0

Create Package

# Create package from directory
tpix bundle ./my-package

# Specify output file
tpix bundle ./my-package -o my-package.tar.gz

# Exclude files
tpix bundle ./my-package -e ".git" -e "node_modules/" -e "*.test"

The directory must contain a valid typst.toml manifest with required fields:

[package]
name = "mypackage"
version = "1.0.0"
entrypoint = "lib.typ"
authors = ["Your Name"]
license = "MIT"
description = "A sample package"

You can also specify excluded files in the manifest:

[package]
# ... other fields
exclude = [".git", "*.test", "node_modules/"]

For more information on how to create a package, please refer to docs in https://github.com/typst/packages/tree/main/docs.

Upload Package

# Upload to namespace
tpix push my-package.tar.gz mynamespace

Zotero Export

# List accessible Zotero libraries
tpix zotero list

# Create and download an export (interactive mode)
tpix zotero export

# Export to a specific file
tpix zotero export -o references.bib

# Export with specific format
tpix zotero export --format bibtex -o references.bib

# Export from specific library
tpix zotero export --library 12345 -o references.bib

tpix zotero export creates a temporary export, downloads the citations, and automatically cleans up. Use --format to specify output format (default: biblatex).

Version & Updates

# Check current version and updates
tpix version

# Update to latest version
tpix update

Output Format

Package specifications use the format @namespace/name:version:

• @user/chart - latest version from user's namespace
• @user/chart:1.0.0 - specific version

Functions

func BundlePackage

func BundlePackage(srcDir string, outputFile string, excludedFiles []string) (string, error)

func CreateZoteroExport

func CreateZoteroExport(name string, namespaceID string, libraryType string, libraryID int64, collectionKey string, format string, reporter ReportFunc) (string, error)

CreateZoteroExport creates an export target on the TPIX server.

func DeleteZoteroExport

func DeleteZoteroExport(exportID string, reporter ReportFunc) error

DeleteZoteroExport deletes an existing Zotero export.

func DownloadPackage

func DownloadPackage(pkgSpec string, cacheDir string, noDeps bool, reporter ReportFunc) (int, error)
