Develop Apps Script projects locally using clasp (Command Line Apps Script Projects).

clasp

To get started, try out the codelab!

You can also try clasp in Gitpod, a one-click online IDE for GitHub:

Open in Gitpod

Features

🗺️ Develop Locally: clasp allows you to develop your Apps Script projects locally. That means you can check-in your code into source control, collaborate with other developers, and use your favorite tools to develop Apps Script.

🔢 Manage Deployment Versions: Create, update, and view your multiple deployments of your project.

📁 Structure Code: clasp automatically converts your flat project on script.google.com into folders. For example:

🔷 Write Apps Script in TypeScript: Write your Apps Script projects using TypeScript features:

➡️ Run Apps Script: Execute your Apps Script from the command line. Features:

- V8 support take advantage of the performance boost of Chrome JavaScript engine:

Install

First download clasp:

npm install -g @google/clasp

Then enable the Google Apps Script API: https://script.google.com/home/usersettings

Enable Apps Script API

Commands

The following command provide basic Apps Script project management.

Note: Most of them require you to clasp login and clasp create/clone before using the rest of the commands.

Advanced Commands

NOTE: These commands require you to add your Project ID.

Clasp Run

NOTE: This command requires you to bring your own Google API credentials.

Reference

Login

Logs the user in. Saves the client credentials to a .clasprc.json file.

Options

Examples

Logout

Logs out the user by deleting client credentials.

Examples

Create

Creates a new script project. Prompts the user for the script type if not specified.

Options

Examples

These options can be combined like so:

Clone

Clones the script project from script.google.com.

Options

Examples

Pull

Fetches a project from either a provided or saved script ID. Updates local files with Apps Script project.

Options

Examples

Push

Force writes all local files to script.google.com.

Warning: Google scripts APIs do not currently support atomic nor per file operations. Thus the push command always replaces the whole content of the online project with the files being pushed.

Run

Remotely executes an Apps Script function.

The complete step-by-step information on how to use clasp run is available here: Run
Below is a short summary:

  1. Log in with your credentials (clasp login --creds creds.json), see: Run - Prerequisites
  2. Deploy the Script as an API executable (Easiest done via GUI at the moment).
  3. Enable any APIs that are used by the script, see: Run - Function with Scopes
  4. Have the following in your appsscript.json. Be sure it's pushed:
"executionApi": {
  "access": "ANYONE"
}

Options

Examples

List/Enable/Disable Google APIs

List available APIs. Enables and disables Google APIs.

List APIs

Lists Google APIs that can be enabled as Advanced Services.

Enable/Disable APIs

The API name can be found using clasp apis list.

Open APIs Console

Open the Google Cloud Console where you can view and manage API access.

Help

Displays the help function.

Examples

Setting

Ignore File (.claspignore)

Like .gitignore, .claspignore allows you to ignore files that you do not wish to not upload on clasp push. Steps:

  1. Create a file called .claspignore in your project's root directory.
  2. Add patterns to be excluded from clasp push. Note: The .claspignore patterns are applied by multimatch, which is different from .gitignore, especially for directories. To ignore a directory, use syntax like **/node_modules/**.

A sample .claspignore ignoring everything except the manifest and build/main.js:

**/**
!build/main.js
!appsscript.json

Note: The .claspignore patterns are applied relative from the rootDir.

If no .claspignore is specified, a default set of patterns is applied. This default set will only consider the appsscript.json manifest and any JavaScript, TypeScript and .html source files within the rootDir folder. Child folders other than .git and node_modules are processed.

# ignore all files…
**/**

# except the extensions…
!appsscript.json
!**/*.gs
!**/*.js
!**/*.ts
!**/*.html

# ignore even valid files if in…
.git/**
node_modules/**

Project Settings File (.clasp.json)

When running clone or create, a file named .clasp.json is created in the current directory to describe clasp's configuration for the current project. Example .clasp.json:

{
  "scriptId": "",
  "rootDir": "build/",
  "projectId": "project-id-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
  "fileExtension": "ts",
  "filePushOrder": ["file1.ts", "file2.ts"]
}

The following configuration values can be used:

scriptId (required)

Specifies the id of the Google Script project that clasp will target.

  1. Open script url.
  2. File > Project properties > Script ID

rootDir (optional)

Specifies the local directory in which clasp will store your project files. If not specified, clasp will default to the current directory.

projectId (optional)

Specifies the id of the Google Cloud Platform project that clasp will target. You must associate Google Script project with Google Cloud Platform beforehand.

  1. Run clasp open.
  2. Click Resources > Cloud Platform project....
  3. Specify the project ID project-id-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Even if you do not set this manually, clasp will ask this via a prompt to you at the required time.

fileExtension (optional)

Specifies the file extension for local script files in your Apps Script project.

filePushOrder (optional)

Specifies the files that should be pushed first, useful for scripts that rely on order of execution. All other files are pushed after this list of files.

Troubleshooting

NodeJS Version

The library requires NodeJS version >= 12.20.0.

You can check your version of NodeJS with this command.

node -v

You can use these commands to upgrade NodeJS if necessary (not on Windows):

npm install -g npm # Update npm and npx
npx n latest # use the n package to update node

Using a Proxy

Clasp supports proxies via the Google APIs Node Module. See "Using a Proxy" and this discussion for details on how to use the proxy. This requires using the environment variables HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY.
