# The `stack ide` commands ~~~text stack ide COMMAND Available commands: packages List all available local loadable packages targets List all available Stack targets ~~~ The `stack ide` commands provide information that may be of use in an integrated development environment (IDE). See `stack ide` for the available commands. ## The `stack ide packages` command ~~~text stack ide packages [--stdout] [--cabal-files] ~~~ `stack ide packages` lists all available project packages that are loadable. By default: * its output is sent to the standard error stream. Pass the flag `--stdout` to change to the standard output stream; and * the output is the package name (without its version). Pass the flag `--cabal-files` to change to the full path to the package's Cabal file. ## The `stack ide targets` command ~~~text stack ide targets [--exes] [--tests] [--benchmarks] [--stdout] ~~~ `stack ide targets` lists all available Stack targets. Alternatively, pass one or more of the flags `--exes`, `--tests` and `--benchmarks` to list only targets of those component types. By default, its output is sent to the standard error stream. Pass the flag `--stdout` to change to the standard output stream. For example, for the Stack project itself, command: ~~~text cd stack stack ide targets ~~~ and the output from the second command is: ~~~text stack:lib stack:exe:stack stack:exe:stack-integration-test stack:test:stack-unit-test ~~~ or command: ~~~text stack ide targets --exes ~~~ and the output is: ~~~text stack:exe:stack stack:exe:stack-integration-test ~~~
