8base CLI

The 8base Command Line Interface (CLI) makes it easy to generate custom functions and manage workspaces straight from the terminal.

Installation

The easiest way to install 8base-cli-continued is to use NPM and install the package globally:

$ npm install 8base-cli-continued --location=global

or, if you are using Yarn:

$ yarn global add 8base-cli-continued

Getting Started

Before using 8base-cli, you need to authenticate yourself. You can do this one of two ways:

Launching a browser using:

$ 8base login

or, through the CLI using:

$ 8base login --email="[e-mail]" --password="myP@ssw0rd"

Once successfully authenticated, a file will be updated at ~/.8baserc with a JSON payload for the authenticated session.

Further Information

For more information about commands and configuration options, please refer the 8base CLI documentation. You can also learn about the different commands from the CLI by running --help with the package itself, or a given command.
