How to Make and publish a CLI tool to jsr

[MikeyA-yo]

i'm making a CLI tool, that i want to publish into JSR, any ideas on how to do that??

You publish it as a regular package, specify a config like so:

{
  "name": "@scope/name",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "exports": "./path/to/entrypoint.ts"
}

Then you can run it as: deno run jsr:@scope/name

ok so how does an end user use it like install it globally on their system (if that's possible, if not fine)

This should do the trick:

deno install --global jsr:@scope/name
