# upload

**This command can only be used with access to an** [**Electrode Native bundle store server**](https://github.com/electrode-io/ern-bundle-store)

**To use this command, the `bundleStore` config must be set in cauldron**

## Description

Upload a JS bundle to the current store.

## Remarks

* Both iOS and Android bundles will be generated and uploaded to the store by default. If you only need to upload a bundle for a single platform, use the `--platform` option.
* By default development bundle(s) will be generated. If you rather need to upload a production bundle you can use the `--prod` flag.
* There are three different ways to generate and upload a bundle :
  * Using a Cauldron, by providing a descriptor and eventually some extra JS dependencies (`--descriptor`/`--extraJsDependencies` option)
  * By manually specifying all the MiniApps/JS API Implementations and extra JS dependencies to put in the bundle (`--miniapps`/`--jsApiImpls`/`--extraJsDependencies` options)
  * From a metro server (packager) running locally (`--fromPackager` flag)
