Raft CLI

To use the raft-cli, first install it npm install --save-dev @wwselleck/raft-cli

You'll first want to make a configuration file. A Raft configuration file exports an object that can then be passed to Raft.create. For example,

// raft.config.js
const googledrive = require('@wwselleck/raft-plugin-googledrive')

module.exports = {
  datasources: [
    gdrive: {
        source: googledrive({
          authConfig: {
            type: 'service',
            path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'creds', 'gdrive_creds.json')
          },
          baseDirName: 'MyData'
        })
    }
  ]
}

I call mine raft.config.js, but it doesn't have to be called that.

To use it, run raft specifying your configuration file with --config.

$(npm bin)/raft --config ./config/raft.config.js

You'll then be presented with a screen that looks like this.

From here you can select any of your configured data sources. I only have one so I'll select that one.

Now you'll be able to see a list of actions that you can perform on the selected data source. Again, I only have one, so I'll select that one.

You're then prompted to enter whatever parameters that action needs. Right now, you have to enter something that is valid JSON (i.e. will not throw an error when passed to JSON.parse). So for example if you want to enter a list of the string data, you'll enter ["data"] (note that JSON requires double quoted strings). This will hopefully change at some point, but for now that's a requirement.

Once you're done, the action will be executed and the results logged to you.
