WebStorm 2023.1 Help

Install plugins from the command line

Install plugins by plugin ID from the JetBrains Marketplace or a custom plugin repository.

You can find the executable for running WebStorm in the installation directory under bin. To use this executable as the command-line launcher, add it to your system PATH as described in Command-line interface.

Syntax
webstorm64.exe installPlugins <plugin-id ...> [repository-url ...]
Examples

Install the Rust plugin:

webstorm64.exe installPlugins org.rust.lang

Install a plugin with the ID com.example.myplugin from a custom repository http://plugins.example.com:8080/updatePlugins.xml:

webstorm64.exe installPlugins com.example.myplugin http://plugins.example.com:8080/updatePlugins.xml

By default, WebStorm does not provide a command-line launcher. For information about creating a launcher script for WebStorm, see Command-line interface.
