Invocation#

bash

spis catalog-type add <slug> --title <title> --description <text>

Create an empty managed catalog scaffold.

Inputs and options#

<slug>, non-empty --title <title> and non-empty --description <text> are required; the corpus refuses a catalog without a description, so add refuses before creating anything (--description is required for add).

Output and state effects#

Creates <slug>-examples/, its references/ directory, sources.json, and references.json with zero records and scaffolded status; regenerates indexes; then prints added PATH (TITLE); scaffolded with zero records.

Refusals#

the following arguments are required: slug
--title is required for add
slug must be lowercase kebab-case, got "SLUG"
PATH already exists
Unsupported or extra input is unrecognized argument: VALUE; a failed generator is index regeneration refused the change: ....
