Deploy Command

This command allows you to specify several resources in a JSON file and deploy them in one command (great for CI/CD workflows).
The default path is abstra.json in the root directory.

abstra deploy [--file or -f]

Examples:

abstra deploy -f prod.json

The file shoud follow a structure similar to what you can pass in each resource add command (using deploy the upsert flag will be added).

Example file:

{
  "forms": [
    {
      "name": "Main Form",
      "path": "main",
      "file": "forms/main.py"
    },
    {
      "name": "Secondary Form",
      "path": "secondary",
      "code": "forms/secondary.py",
      "enabled": false
    }
  ],
  "hooks": [
    {
      "name": "Test",
      "path": "test",
      "file": "hooks/test.py"
    },
    {
      "name": "Stripe",
      "path": "stripe",
      "file": "hooks/stripe.py"
    }
  ],
  "jobs": [
    {
      "name": "Monthly",
      "idt": "month",
      "file": "jobs/month.py",
      "schedule": "00 00 1 * *",
      "enabled": false
    },
    {
      "name": "Weekly",
      "idt": "week",
      "file": "jobs/week.py",
      "schedule": "00 00 * * 1"
    }
  ],
  "files": ["root.json", "files/"],
  "packages": {
    "file": "requirements.txt"
  },
  "vars": {
    "file": ".env"
  }
}

For packages and vars you can also specify manually:

{
  "packages": ["pydash", "stripe==1.1.0"],
  "vars": ["ABSTRA_CLOUD=test", "STRIPE_KEY=foobar"]
}

Aliases

Some commands have aliases.

upload

# Alias for `abstra add files` with default argument `.`
abstra upload [FILES or DIRECTORIES, default: .]

ls

# Alias for `abstra list files`
abstra ls

rm

# Alias for `abstra remove files`
abstra rm

install

tests/

*.ipynb
