clever-cli

clever-cli is a command line tool to access the Clever API.

Installing

You can install an official release from the Github releases page or install from source via:

go get github.com/Clever/clever-cli

Examples

$ clever-cli --token=DEMO_TOKEN teachers list
$ clever-cli --token=DEMO_TOKEN sections list
$ clever-cli --token=DEMO_TOKEN sections list --where='{"subject":"math"}'
$ clever-cli --token=DEMO_TOKEN teachers get EXAMPLEID

Usage

clever-cli [options] endpoint action [action options]

Options

There is one required command line flag:

• token: API token to use for authentication

And three optional ones:

• help=false: if true, display help and exit
• host="https://api.clever.com": base URL of Clever API
• output="csv": output method. supported options: csv, json

Endpoint

Which endpoint to query in the Clever API. Valid options are students, schools, sections, or teachers.

Action

What you want to do with that endpoint. Valid options are list (which returns all the results), and get (which returns a specific object by Clever ID).

Action options

A set of optional command line flags that modify the request to the Clever API. Varies based on action type.

List

• where="": a JSON-stringified where query parameter

Get

• Get takes a single positional argument, which is the Clever ID of the object you wish to get.

Local Development

Set this repository up in the standard location in your GOPATH, i.e. $GOPATH/src/github.com/Clever/clever-cli. Once this is done, make test runs the tests.

The release process requires a cross-compilation toolchain. gox can install the toolchain with one command: gox -build-toolchain. From there you can build release tarballs for different OS and architecture combinations with make release.

Rolling an official release

Official releases are listed on the releases page. To create an official release:

1. On master, bump the version in the VERSION file in accordance with semver. You can do this with gitsem, but make sure not to create the tag, e.g. gitsem -tag=false patch.

2. Push the change to Github. Drone will automatically create a release for you.
