CLI messages
Every answer UpFork's registry can give the shadcn CLI, what it means, and what to do about it.
Updated This page as Markdown
When UpFork's registry can't hand the shadcn CLI a product, it answers with a short title and a sentence saying why and what to do, and the CLI prints both. Here is every title it can print, what it means, and what to do.
Your token
| Title | When | What to do |
|---|---|---|
Token required | The command sent no token: UPFORK_TOKEN isn't set, or components.json doesn't pass it on | Follow Install components: create a token, put it in .env.local as UPFORK_TOKEN, and add UpFork to components.json. The message also says what the product needs: an account for a free one, the buyer's token for a paid one, a plan for a plan product. |
Invalid token | The token isn't one of UpFork's (they start with upf_ and are 47 characters long), or it was deleted or mistyped | Copy it again, or create a new one, and put it in .env.local as UPFORK_TOKEN. |
Account blocked | The account the token belongs to is blocked, so its tokens don't work | Contact UpFork to ask why. |
The product
| Title | When | What to do |
|---|---|---|
Not found | There's no product called <name>. Names are lower-case letters, digits and hyphens: the last part of the product's address | Check the name against the product's page, https://upfork.dev/products/<name>. |
No longer available | The product isn't on sale any more | If you bought it, its code stays yours: download it from your purchases. |
Not installable | It's a full-stack project, an app, desktop software or a script | It's downloaded, not installed: get it from its page (Templates and downloads). |
Not a shadcn item | It's plain HTML, CSS and JS, not a React component | Download it, or copy its code, from its page. |
No code | It's delivered as downloads only | Get it from its page. |
These are checked before your token, so you see them even with no token set up.
Buying and plans
| Title | When | What to do |
|---|---|---|
Not bought | The product is paid, and the token's account hasn't bought it | Buy it on its page, or use the token of the account that bought it, then run the command again. |
Not in your plan | The product comes with a plan, and the token's account is on an earlier one | See the plans on the pricing page. |
Plan limit reached | Your plan's downloads for today (or this month) are used up | They come back at 00:00 UTC (monthly ones on the 1st). The message says which plan gives you more. See Plans and limits. |
Too many, or no answer
| Title | When | What to do |
|---|---|---|
Too many requests | Too many installs from your address in a short time | Wait a minute, then run the command again. |
Registry unavailable | UpFork's registry can't be reached right now | Try again in a minute. |
For developers
If you sell on UpFork, two more can appear while you install your own product:
Not on sale: your product is a draft or archived, UpFork took it off the site, or the plan it comes with isn't launched yet. Publish it in its editor's Publish step, then run the command again.Not foundfor a draft is what everyone else sees; you seeNot on saleinstead.
To try an install before publishing, use the try link from your product's editor: see Selling a component.
