[Glossary](https://legacy-docs-v1.rasa.com/1.10.17/glossary/) --- ## Versions viewing: 1.10.17 ## Command Line Interface The command line interface (CLI) gives you easy-to-remember commands for common tasks. | Command | Effect | | --- | --- | | `rasa init` | Creates a new project with example training data, actions, and config files. | | `rasa train` | Trains a model using your NLU data and stories, saves trained model in `./models`. | | `rasa interactive` | Starts an interactive learning session to create new training data by chatting. | | `rasa shell` | Loads your trained model and lets you talk to your assistant on the command line. | | `rasa run` | Starts a Rasa server with your trained model. See the [Configuring the HTTP API](https://legacy-docs-v1.rasa.com/1.10.17/user-guide/configuring-http-api/#configuring-http-api) docs for details. | | `rasa run actions` | Starts an action server using the Rasa SDK. | | `rasa visualize` | Visualizes stories. | | `rasa test` | Tests a trained Rasa model using your test NLU data and stories. | | `rasa data split nlu` | Performs a split of your NLU data according to the specified percentages. | | `rasa data convert nlu` | Converts NLU training data between different formats. | | `rasa export` | Export conversations from a tracker store to an event broker. | | `rasa x` | Launch Rasa X locally. | | `rasa -h` | Shows all available commands. | ## Create a new project A single command sets up a complete project for you with some example training data. ``` rasa init ``` This creates the following files: ``` . ├── __init__.py ├── actions.py ├── config.yml ├── credentials.yml ├── data │ ├── nlu.md │ └── stories.md ├── domain.yml ├── endpoints.yml └── models └── .tar.gz ``` The `rasa init` command will ask you if you want to train an initial model using this data. If you answer no, the `models` directory will be empty. ## Train a Model The main command is: ``` rasa train ``` This command trains a Rasa model that combines a Rasa NLU and a Rasa Core model. If you only want to train an NLU or a Core model, you can run `rasa train nlu` or `rasa train core`. However, Rasa will automatically skip training Core or NLU if the training data and config haven’t changed. `rasa train` will store the trained model in the directory defined by `--out`. The name of the model is per default `.tar.gz`. If you want to name your model differently, you can specify the name using `--fixed-model-name`.
