Welcome to CloudLaunch CLI’s documentation!

Contents:

CloudLaunch CLI

Command line client to the CloudLaunch API.

• Free software: MIT license
• Documentation: https://cloudlaunch-cli.readthedocs.io.

Quickstart

1. Create a virtual environment and activate it

   python3 -m venv venv
   source venv/bin/activate
   

2. Install cloudlaunch-cli with pip

   pip install cloudlaunch-cli
   

3. The CloudLaunch CLI requires two config settings. First is the URL of the API root:

   cloudlaunch config set url https://launch.usegalaxy.org/cloudlaunch/api/v1
   

4. Second config setting is an auth token. To get an auth token, first log into CloudLaunch, for example, by going to https://launch.usegalaxy.org/login. Then navigate to the /api/v1/auth/tokens API endpoint, for example, https://launch.usegalaxy.org/cloudlaunch/api/v1/auth/tokens/. Copy the token out of the JSON response and then run the following (substituting your own token instead):

   cloudlaunch config set token b38faadf2ef6d59ce46711ed73e99d6...
   

5. Now you should be able to list your deployments

   cloudlaunch deployments list
   

6. You can create a deployment as well

   cloudlaunch deployments create my-ubuntu-test ubuntu \
       amazon-us-east-n-virginia --application-version 16.04
   

Installing for development

1. python3 -m venv venv
2. source venv/bin/activate
3. pip install -r requirements_dev.txt

Now you can run cloudlaunch.

Write Documentation

CloudLaunch CLI could always use more documentation, whether as part of the official CloudLaunch CLI docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts, articles, and such.

Submit Feedback

The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/CloudVE/cloudlaunch_cli/issues.

If you are proposing a feature:

• Explain in detail how it would work.
• Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.

Get Started!

Ready to contribute? Here’s how to set up cloudlaunch_cli for local development.

1. Fork the cloudlaunch_cli repo on GitHub.

2. Clone your fork locally:

   $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/cloudlaunch_cli.git
   

3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenvwrapper installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:

   $ mkvirtualenv cloudlaunch_cli
   $ cd cloudlaunch_cli/
   $ python setup.py develop
   

4. Create a branch for local development:

   $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
   

   Now you can make your changes locally.

5. When you’re done making changes, check that your changes pass flake8 and the tests, including testing other Python versions with tox:

   $ flake8 cloudlaunch_cli tests
   $ python setup.py test or py.test
   $ tox
   

   To get flake8 and tox, just pip install them into your virtualenv.

6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub:

   $ git add .
   $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
   $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
   

7. Submit a pull request through the GitHub website.

Pull Request Guidelines

Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:

1. The pull request should include tests.
2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the feature to the list in README.rst.
3. The pull request should work for Python 3.6.

Tips

To run a subset of tests:

$ python -m unittest tests.test_cloudlaunch_cli
