nb app start
Start the NocoBase app for a selected env. When applicable, the CLI first synchronizes the commercial plugins allowed by the current license. Then npm/Git installations automatically complete install or upgrade preparation before running local app commands; Docker installations recreate the saved app container from saved env config.
Usage
Parameters
Examples
If you explicitly pass --env and it differs from the current env, the CLI asks for confirmation first. In non-interactive terminals or AI agent sessions, add --yes yourself or run nb env use <name> first and try again.
By default, when applicable, the CLI first runs nb license plugins sync --skip-if-no-license to synchronize the commercial plugins allowed by the current license. Then local envs automatically complete any required install or upgrade preparation before starting, and Docker envs recreate the app container from saved env config. Whenever the CLI needs to wait for readiness, it checks __health_check: it prints one waiting line first, then one progress line every 10 seconds until the app becomes available or times out.
