orbit lock

NAME

lock - save the world state of a project

SYNOPSIS

orbit lock [options]

DESCRIPTION

Saves the state of the world for the local project. To accomplish this, Orbit reads the local project's manifest file, "Orbit.toml", to resolve any missing project dependencies. It writes the information required to reproduce this state to the project's lock file, "Orbit.lock".

A local project must exist for this command to execute.

It is encouraged to check the lock file into version control such that other users trying to reconstruct the project can reproduce the project's current state. The lock file should not be manually edited by the user.

To capture the world state for the local project, Orbit downloads and installs any unresolved project dependencies. If an installed dependency's computed checksum does not match the checksum stored in the lock file, it assumes the installation is corrupt and will reinstall the dependency to the cache.

OPTIONS

--force
            Ignore reading the precomputed lock file
