SYNOPSIS

sfdk engine command [options]

DESCRIPTION

sfdk engine manages the Sailfish SDK build engine, which runs as a virtual machine providing the Sailfish OS build environment. The engine must be started before other `sfdk` build commands can be used, and is typically left running across builds.

PARAMETERS

start

Start the build engine virtual machine.
stop
Stop the build engine virtual machine.
status
Show whether the engine is running.
exec command
Execute a command inside the running engine.

CAVEATS

The engine is a virtual machine and requires a working virtualization backend (VirtualBox or Docker depending on the SDK variant). Starting the engine can take several seconds on first launch.
