infusevideo-cli 0.2.2

Command-line utility to interact with the Infuse Video API

infusevideo-cli

This is a simple CLI utility for the Infuse Video API.

Installation

Requirements

• Python 3.9 or newer

Setting up the virtualenv

It is recommended to use a virtualenv to install this package and dependencies. This ensures your normal system stays clean and none of the dependencies conflict with other packages on your system.

Choose a directory where you want to install the CLI, and then run

python3 -m venv infusevideo

or, on Windows,

python.exe -m venv infusevideo

This will create a directory infusevideo containing the virtualenv.

Installing the dependencies and the package itself

Simply run

infusevideo/bin/pip install infusevideo-cli

or, on Windows,

infusevideo\Scripts\pip install infusevideo-cli

and all the dependencies will be retrieved and installed automatically, after which the latest version of the CLI is installed as well. At this point, the executables have been installed in

infusevideo/bin/ivc
infusevideo/bin/ivs

or, on Windows:

infusevideo\Scripts\ivc.exe
infusevideo\Scripts\ivs.exe

PATH

In order to invoke the executables directly using just ivc and ivs, you can simply create a symbolic link to them in a directory in your PATH, or alternatively (not recommended) you can copy or move them into such a directory.

Usage

There are two executables, ivc which is the normal CLI application, and ivs which is the same as running ivc --script, as a convenience for running in scripts or any other environment where human input is not available.

Running

infusevideo/bin/ivc --help

or, on Windows:

infusevideo\Scripts\ivc --help

will show the program usage.

API documentation

Please refer to the current API documentation for an overview of available actions on the API, request parameters and expected return values.

Upgrading

Upgrading is as simple as running

infusevideo/bin/pip install --upgrade infusevideo-cli

or, on Windows:

infusevideo\Scripts\pip install --upgrade infusevideo-cli

Uninstalling

Removing the application is as simple as removing the infusevideo directory created when making the virtualenv. Your configuration file and token cache are stored in the .infusevideo sub-directory of your home directory, and may also be removed.
