Hello,

I'm very new to h5p. I'm trying to use the cli tools to pack a content package instead of manutally but I keep getting "You must specify libraries".
I can sucessfully package a library with librrary.json, but not a content package with h5p.json.

Thanks for your help!

The H5P CLI tool is meant for developing libraries and thus does not add an h5p.json file or a content folder. If you want to build content files, you'll have to add your built h5p.json file + content folder to the archive afterwards.

I am trying to figure out how to create a basic h5p file based on h5p 'hello world' boilerplate. Packaging via h5p CLI is not an issue, I figured that out, but adding content folder and h5p.json is something I where I am stuck now.
I have tried to create an h5p.json based on some of the tutorials with the followingplaced it inside of the packaged .h5p archive, but I am getting an error 'Missing main library @library' when trying to upload the package to Moodle. Could you please tell me what I am missing if that is not too much trouble? The content of the h5p.json are as follows:

{    "title": "Greeting card",    "language": "en",    "author": "Tutorial user",    "license": "CC BY-SA",    "licenseVersion": "4.0",    "authors":[{      "name":"The author name",      "role":"Author"    }],    "preloadedDependencies": [{      "machineName": "H5P.HelloWorld",      "majorVersion": 1,      "minorVersion": 0    }],    "mainLibrary": "H5P.HelloWorld",    "embedTypes": ["iframe"]  }
