Description:

Simple utility CLI for importing data into and out of SwaggerHub Explore

Usage:

Explore.CLI [command] [options]

Options:

--version Show version information

-?, -h, --help Show help and usage information

Commands:

Prerequisites

You will need the following:

Install the CLI

Nuget

Download and install the CLI tool from Nuget: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Explore.Cli

dotnet tool install --global Explore.Cli

GitHub Releases

Standalone releases of the Explore.CLI tool are published to GitHub Releases.

Supported Platforms
OS Architecture Supported
OSX x86_64
Linux x86_64
Windows x86_64
OSX arm64
Linux arm64
Windows arm64
Alpine x86_64
Alpine arm64
Pre-requisites
  • libicu - Linux musl and glibc based systems
  • gcc - Linux musl based systems
Alpine

apk add -y gcc icu

Debian

apt update && apt install -y libicu-dev

Docker

Dockerfiles are provided for amd64 & arm64 flavours

  • Alpine
    • ./Dockerfile.alpine
  • Debian
    • ./Dockerfile.debian
Building images
docker build . --platform=linux/arm64 -f Dockerfile.debian  -t explore-cli:debian-arm64
docker build . --platform=linux/arm64 -f Dockerfile.debian  -t explore-cli:debian-amd64
docker build . --platform=linux/arm64 -f Dockerfile.alpine  -t explore-cli:alpine-arm64
docker build . --platform=linux/arm64 -f Dockerfile.alpine  -t explore-cli:alpine-amd64
Using images

The entrypoint is the explore-cli application.

Set environment variables in your shell

export EXPLORE_SESSION_TOKEN=<SESSION_TOKEN>
export EXPLORE_XSRF_TOKEN=<XSRF-TOKEN>

Run your created docker image, with your required explore-cli command.

In our example we are using import-spaces which we have in our local directory under the spaces folder.

The spaces folder is volume mounted into our container in /spaces, and commands to file paths should reference this folder.

docker run --platform=linux/amd64 \
  --rm \
  -it \
  -v $PWD/spaces:/spaces \
  explore-cli:debian \
  import-spaces \
  --explore-cookie "SESSION=${EXPLORE_SESSION_TOKEN}; XSRF-TOKEN=${EXPLORE_XSRF_TOKEN}" \
  -fp /spaces/explore_demo_spaces.json

Session Cookies for CLI command

You will need to obtain certain cookies from an active session in SwaggerHub Explore to invoke the CLI commands.

From SwaggerHub Explore, navigate to your browser development tools, locate the application cookies and extract the SESSION and XSRF-TOKEN cookies.
