aeorank init

Create an aeorank.config.js configuration file in the current directory with sensible defaults.

Usage

aeorank init

What it creates

Running aeorank init generates an aeorank.config.js file:

/** @type {import('@aeorank/core').AeorankConfig} */
export default {
  site: {
    url: "https://example.com",
    name: "My Site",
    description: "A brief description of your site",
  },
  output: {
    dir: "./aeo-output",
  },
  scanner: {
    maxPages: 50,
    concurrency: 3,
    timeout: 30000,
  },
};

Edit the values to match your site, then run:

aeorank scan https://your-site.com --config ./aeorank.config.js

When to use init

Use aeorank init when you want to:

• Customize scanner settings for repeated scans
• Set a default output directory
• Configure site metadata for more accurate file generation

For one-off scans, you don’t need a config file — just run aeorank scan <url> directly.
