tci-tools is an extension for Microsoft Visual Studio Code which provides support for building awesome Node.js apps in TIBCO Cloud™ Integration.
This command checks whether or not the tibcli utility has been installed on the machine at the location you have configured (see below for details on extension settings).
If you want to build a Node.js app based on an API specification you can use this command to launch the TIBCO Cloud Integration - API Modeler in a browser and visually design the API your Node.js app will expose. You can download a stub implementation from there as well! Based on your setting of the region it will open the API Modeler in your TIBCO Cloud region.
The TIBCO Community is a great place to get in contact with experts on TIBCO Cloud Integration. If you have a question, you can post it there too!
This command simply launches a browser window and opens the documentation for TIBCO Cloud Integration based on your setting of the region.
You can push a Node.js app to TIBCO Cloud Integration using the tibcli or by uploading it through the web. In both cases you'll need a zip file containing the code and the manifest. This command creates a directory deployment in which the manifest and zip are placed
With TIBCO Cloud Integration you can build Node.js apps from the API specs you design or you can start with the minimum of boilerplate code. This command creates a manifest.json file and a few other files you'll need to create your next Node.js app
Push your Node.js app to TIBCO Cloud Integration using the tibcli utility
Before pushing your app to TIBCO Cloud Integration, you probably want to test it first. This command installs all the dependencies (from package.json) your app relies on and runs your Node.js app on your machine.
Add a new Environment variable to the manifest.json file so you can use it in your Node.js code with the process.env context
To use this extension you need a valid account to TIBCO Cloud Integration (you can sign up at https://cloud.tibco.com/free-trial) and the tibcli utility (see https://integration.cloud.tibco.com/docs/getstarted/installation/download-tools.html for details)
This extension contributes the following settings:
tci.tibcli: The full qualified path to the tibcli executable (including .exe on Windows) which is set toc:/tmp/tibcli.exeby defaulttci.region: The region of TCI your account is in (e.g. us, eu or au) which defaults tous
To install the extension you can download the latest version from the releases section. You can install the extension using the VS Code --install-extension command line switch
code --install-extension tci-tools-x.x.x.vsix
Note that you'll have to make sure that code is added to your path so you can use it from the console. You can find instructions on how to do that in the VSCode docs
