Running NCF Using CLI

Step 1: Open Command Line Tool or Visual Studio Code

Navigate to the directory path where the Senparc.Web project (startup project) of NCF is located:

Tip: In Visual Studio Code, press Ctrl + ~ to open the command line tool.

Step 2: Enter .NET Project Startup Command

E:\...\Senparc.Web > dotnet run --launch-profile http

Note: The default database used is SQLite. If you need to switch to another database, please refer to Using Multiple Databases.

Complete Startup

After waiting for a few seconds, the NCF Web project will be successfully started.

Due to some behavior characteristics of the CLI command line, you may see a site address prompt at the end, or it may stay on the system startup log, which is normal:

With the command above, open http://localhost:5000 in the browser:

Tip: the local HTTPS profile uses https://localhost:5111; the Docker profile uses http://localhost:5000 and https://localhost:5001. Select a profile explicitly with --launch-profile, or edit launchSettings.json.

First Time Startup Installation

When starting for the first time, the system will automatically prompt for installation. After the installation is complete, the installation interface will no longer appear.
