typeorm: Create a new entity file in a specific directory.
$ typeorm entity:create --name ${entity} --dir ${path-to-directory}
try on your machine

This command is used in the TypeORM library to create a new entity file in your project. Let's break down the command and its options:

  • typeorm: It is the command-line interface (CLI) tool for TypeORM.
  • entity:create: This part of the command tells the TypeORM CLI that you want to create a new entity.
  • --name ${entity}: It specifies the name of the entity you want to create. You need to replace ${entity} with the actual name of the entity you want to create.
  • --dir ${path-to-directory}: It indicates the directory where the entity file will be created. You need to replace ${path-to-directory} with the actual path to the directory in your project where you want to place the entity file.

By running this command with the correct entity name and directory path, TypeORM will generate a new entity file with the specified name in the provided directory. This entity file will usually define the schema and properties of a database table or document, allowing TypeORM to perform database operations (e.g., querying, creating, updating) on objects of that entity's class.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
