TALXIS CLI (txc)

This project is currently in a development phase and not ready for production use. While we actively use these tools internally, our aim is to share and collaborate with the broader community to refine and enhance their capabilities. We are in the process of gradually open-sourcing the code, removing internal dependencies to make it universally applicable. At this stage, it serves as a source of inspiration and a basis for collaboration. We welcome feedback, suggestions, and contributions through pull requests.

If you wish to use this project for your team, please contact us at hello@networg.com for a personalized onboarding experience and customization to meet your specific needs.

MCP Server Support:
You can also use this CLI as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server by installing the related .NET tool txc-mcp.
This enables integration with tools and workflows that support the MCP standard.
For setup and usage instructions, see TALXIS.CLI.MCP.


TALXIS CLI (txc) is a modular, extensible .NET global tool for automating development, data, and solution management tasks - especially for Power Platform and enterprise projects. It helps developers scaffold, transform, and manage code and data in local repositories.


Table of Contents


Installation

Install the CLI as a .NET global tool:

dotnet tool install --global TALXIS.CLI

Update to the latest version:

dotnet tool update --global TALXIS.CLI

dotnet new update

Running dotnet new update ensures that template packages used by the CLI are updated to their latest versions.

After installation, use the CLI via the txc command in any terminal.


Example Usage

Start the data transformation server on the default port:

txc data transform server start

Convert Excel to CMT XML:

txc data package convert --input export.xlsx --output data.xml

List available workspace components:

txc workspace component type list

Component scaffolding in this CLI relies on the TALXIS/tools-devkit-templates repository, where all component types, metadata, and definitions are maintained.

Show details about a component:

txc workspace component explain pp-entity

List parameters required for a specific component template:

txc workspace component parameter list pp-entity

Scaffold a new Dataverse entity component:

txc workspace component create pp-entity \
  --output "/Users/tomasprokop/Desktop/mcp-test/test" \
  --param Behavior=New \
  --param PublisherPrefix=tom \
  --param LogicalName=location \
  --param LogicalNamePlural=locations \
  --param DisplayName=Location \
  --param DisplayNamePlural=Locations \
  --param SolutionRootPath=Declarations

For detailed usage instructions, run txc --help or txc <command> --help in your terminal.


Local Development & Debugging

Clone the repository and restore dependencies:

git clone <repo-url>
cd tools-cli
dotnet restore

Build the solution:

dotnet build

Run the CLI directly (for example, to test the data transform server):

dotnet run --project src/TALXIS.CLI -- data transform server start

Versioning & Release

  • Versioning is managed in Directory.Build.props (Microsoft-style versioning).
  • Releases are published to NuGet.org via GitHub Actions.

Collaboration

We welcome collaboration! For feedback, suggestions, or contributions, please submit issues or pull requests.
