IBM Watson API CLI

A prototype for the IBM Watson API command-line experience.

Installation

npm install -g ibmwatson

Description

The Watson API Command-Line Interface should allow a user (developer) to:

• Login and create applications in Bluemix
• Create Watson API instances in Bluemix
• Generate boilerplate code based on developer-defined APIs
• View the full catalog of Watson APIs
• View the content available in the Watson Content Marketplace
• View the purchased and uploaded content in the user's Library
• Add content from AWS, SoftLayer, etc.
• Adapt an API to the developer's use case

Note: The Watson API CLI is not necessarily intended to hand-hold a first-time user through the application and API set up process. It is intended to allow seasoned users to do tasks more efficiently by using the command-line.
