Configuring Ember CLI

In addition to configuring your app itself, you can also configure Ember CLI. These configurations can be made by adding them to the .ember-cli file in your application's root. Many can also be made by passing them as arguments to the command line program.

For example, a common desire is to change the port that Ember CLI serves the app from. It's possible to pass the port number from the command line with ember server --port 8080. To make this configuration permanent, edit your .ember-cli file like so:

{
  "port": 8080
}

For a full list of command line options, run ember help. More information on configuring the Ember CLI can be found in the CLI Guides.
