rubus-cli 1.0.1

CLI to interact with a Rubus API instance

# Rubus Client

This project contains a command-line interface program to interact with a deployed instance of [rubus-api](https://github.com/kjuvi/rubus-api).

## Commands overview

All the commands are grouped by functionalities. Here is a quick overview of how they are structured:

• rubus

  • admin: these commands require administrative rights

  • authentication: Log in and manage your user

  • device: manage devices (turn on/off, deployment, …)

## Authentication system

Excepted for the login, all the other commands require to be authenticated. Rubus API works with JWT and will return you one on a successful login. Since Rubus CLI is quite minimalist, there is no persistence, and you will have to take advantage of your shell capabilities.

In other words, Rubus CLI will display the JWT, and prompt you to save it as an environment variable (i.e. RUBUS_SESSION). The token is valid as long as your user has not reach his expiration time (if any).

You can either set it once and for good, for example in your .bashrc, or just set it in your current shell. Closing the shell will operate as a log out. However, keep in mind that it may be accessible through the bash_history, in case you are on a public computer.
