You can use the CLI to build custom pieces for the platform. This process compiles the pieces and exports them as a .tgz packed archive.

​
How It Works

The CLI scans the packages/pieces/ directory for the specified piece. It checks the name in the package.json file. If the piece is found, it builds and packages it into a .tgz archive.

​
Usage

To build a piece, follow these steps:
  1. Ensure you have the CLI installed by cloning the repository.
  2. Run the following command:
npm run build-piece
You will be prompted to enter the name of the piece you want to build. For example: 
? Enter the piece folder name : google-drive
The CLI will build the piece and you will be given the path to the archive. For example: 
Piece 'google-drive' built and packed successfully at dist/packages/pieces/community/google-drive
