Project Actions

A project action is a shell command you save once and run with a click — your dev server, a build, a test run. Each project keeps its own list. Set them up at Settings → Projects → Project Actions.

Add an action

  1. Open Settings → Projects and find the Project Actions section.
  2. Add an action, give it a name, pick an icon, and enter the command to run.
  3. Save.

You can limit an action to certain operating systems if a command only makes sense on one.

Run an action

Actions live in a menu in the app header. Click one and OpenChamber runs it in a terminal in your project folder, switching you to the terminal view so you can watch the output. Stop it from the same menu.

Auto-open a dev server

Turn on auto-open URL for an action that starts a server. OpenChamber watches the output for a local address and offers to open it — see Preview & Dev Servers. On desktop you can also route it through an SSH port forward.
