Installation

macOS

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/scaleflex/filerobot-cli/releases/download/1.0/filerobot-cli-darwin-x86_64" 
-o /usr/local/bin/filerobot && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/filerobot

Linux

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/scaleflex/filerobot-cli/releases/download/1.0/filerobot-cli-linux-x86_64" 
-o /usr/local/bin/filerobot && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/filerobot

To validate the installation of the CLI, run:

filerobot version 

Configuration

Configuring the CLI requires a Filerobot Token (Token) and API Secret Key (APISecretKey), both available from the Filerobot Asset Hub.

filerobot config --token=Token --key=APISecretKey

Upload

To upload your first file via the CLI, run the following command:

filerobot upload face.png

Where face.png is an asset on your local machine.

You can also upload into a specific folder:

filerobot upload face.png --folder=/Marketing

The folder will be created if it does not exist.

The command returns the status and 2 links to the asset:

SUCCESS: Uploaded successfully in 1.288758425s,
