Why need CLI?

Let me list down as points as to why we need CLIs:

• This blog by Justin Poehnelt, explains the importance of CLI in the era of AI Agents.
• Haystack documentation has become very vast over the time with tons of components and integrations. It is very hard to keep track of all the components and their configurations. A handy tool without the need for a google search is cherry on top.
• Haystack ecosystem is improving significantly and quickly as well. We need to adopt to the latest changes in APIs and components. A CLI tries to keep that layer abstracted and provide a consistent interface to the user.
• --help flag is your first best friend more than any AI assistant.
• Since the inception of Haystack we didn't have a CLI and it's better late than never. It's high time to adopt to the CLI ecosystem so that we are not left behind in the race.

Quick Start

After successful installation, you can run the CLI using the following command to verify successful installation:

haystack -v
