For each of these tools, before use you should configure the following as environment variables:

AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL  The URL that the Autoseeder service resides at [e.g.: https://your.instance.hostname/autoseeder/]
AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN     Token to authenticate with - recommended method

Linux/MacOS:

export AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL=https://your.instance.hostname/autoseeder/
export AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN='35999b9065…'

Windows Powershell:

$env:AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL = "https://your.instance.hostname/autoseeder/"
$env:AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN = "35999b9065…"

Windows Command Prompt:

set AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL=https://your.instance.hostname/autoseeder/
set AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN=35999b9065…

Commands available:

autoseeder-cli get_token

Required Environment Variables

• AUTOSEEDER_USER

• AUTOSEEDER_PASS

• AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL

via CLI

Log in to autoseeder and obtain an API token. Note that if you’ve been supplied with a token string to use already, you do not need to do this.

Linux/MacOS Command line:

AUTOSEEDER_USER=josephpilgrim
AUTOSEEDER_PASS=onthetrail
AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL=https://oregon.usa/autoseeder/

export AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN=$(autoseeder-cli get_token)

via Python lib

import os
import autoseeder_cli

username = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_USER')
password = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_PASS')
base_url = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL')

api = autoseeder_cli.AutoseederTokenGetter(user=username, password=password, base_url=base_url)
print('API token: {}'.format(api.get_token()))

autoseeder-cli submit

Required Environment Variables

• AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN

• AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL

via CLI

Submit a single URL to Autoseeder for seeding. You can optionally select a geographic region to limit seeding activity to.

Command line:

autoseeder-cli submit https://example.com/ --seed-region=AU

via Python lib

import os
import autoseeder_cli

token = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN')
base_url = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL')

submitter = autoseeder_cli.AutoseederSubmitter(token=token, base_url=base_url)
response = submitter.submit_url('http://example.com', seed_region='AU')
uuid = response.get('uuid')

print('URL trackable via {}'.format(uuid))

autoseeder-cli list

Required Environment Variables

• AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN

• AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL

via CLI

Presents a report of URLs you’ve submitted and their status.

You may find it helpful to filter and format the output with the jq tool.

Linux/MacOS command line:

# show last 100
autoseeder-cli list --limit 100

# filter down with jq
autoseeder-cli list --limit 100 | \
    jq '.[] | \
        select(.statistics != null) | \
       [ .statistics[].canoncical_url, .statistics[].status ]'

Windows command line:

REM show last 100
autoseeder-cli list --limit 100

REM filter down with jq
autoseeder-cli list --limit 100 | jq ".[]| select(.statistics != null)| [.statistics[].canonical_url, .statistics[].status]"

via Python lib

import os
import autoseeder_cli

token = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN')
base_url = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL')

lister = autoseeder_cli.AutoseederLister(token=token, base_url=base_url)
urls = lister.get_url_list()

for url in urls:
    print(url['url'])

autoseeder-cli search

Required Environment Variables

• AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN

• AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL

via CLI

Finds URLs matching a search term, and provides their Universally Unique Identifiers (UUIDs) for further actions (e.g. view).

Command line:

autoseeder-cli find_urls 'example.com'

via Python lib

import os
import autoseeder_cli

token = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN')
base_url = os.environ.get('AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL')

searcher = autoseeder_cli.AutoseederSearcher(token=token, base_url=base_url)
uuids = searcher.find_urls('example.com')

for uuid in uuids:
    print(uuid)

autoseeder-cli view

Required Environment Variables

• AUTOSEEDER_TOKEN

• AUTOSEEDER_BASE_URL

via CLI

Presents a report of a single URL via its associated Universally unique identifier (UUID) or specific URL.

Command line:

# view by URL UUID
autoseeder-cli view 2118f16a-3270-4e63-88dc-24b6097739ab  # UUID is sample only
# partial URL string which must match only one registered URL
autoseeder-cli view example.com/myurl

via Python lib

import os
import autoseeder_cli

# 2118f16a-3270-4e63-88dc-24b6097739ab is a SAMPLE ONLY, would map to a seeded URL you previously submitted
viewer = autoseeder_cli.AutoseederURLView(token=token, base_url=myinstance_url)
url_data = viewer.view('2118f16a-3270-4e63-88dc-24b6097739ab')

for url in url_data:
    print(url['url'])
