This is the installation guide and command reference for a127, the command-line interface for Apigee 127.

  • Prerequisites
  • Installation
  • Commands

Prerequisites

If you choose to install Apigee-127 using npm you will need npm version 1.3 or higher. You will also need Node.js version 0.10.24 or higher.

Installation

You can install apigee-127 either through npm or by cloning and linking the code from GitHub. This document covers the installation details for installing from npm.

Installation from npm

The apigee-127 module and its dependencies are designed for Node.js and is available through npm using the following command:

Linux / Mac from a Terminal Window:

$ sudo npm install -g apigee-127

NOTE: The npm installation requires permission to create a folder in the ~/.a127 directory. When installing apigee-127 you may need to add the flag --unsafe-perm to the install command. For example:

    $sudo npm install -g apigee-127 --unsafe-perm
```

> NOTE: `sudo` may be required with the `-g` option which places the `a127` command-line commands in you PATH. If you do not use `-g`, then you need to add the `apigee-127/bin `directory to your PATH manually. 
> 
> Typically, the `-g` option places modules in: `/usr/local/lib/node_modules/apigee-127` on *nix-based machines.


### Windows, from a Command Prompt

npm install -g apigee-127


## Location of files

Apigee-127 places most of its files that it depends on at a global level in `~/.a127`.  This includes an `accounts` file that has details about the configured accounts and an optional `usergrid` directory if you choose to download and use Usergrid through the `a127` command line.

## Dependencies

For a list of dependencies and Node.js modules that are relevant to an Apigee-127 project, see [Apigee-127 modules](https://github.com/apigee-127/a127-documentation/wiki/Apigee-127-modules)

## <a name="a127-project"></a>project

Create and manage Apigee 127 projects on your local machine. 

`$ a127 project [options]  [command]`

**Examples:**

`$ a127 project create`

`$ a127 project start`

`$ a127 project deploy`

To print a list of valid options for a command:

`$ a127 project [command] -h`

**Commands:**

* **create** - Creates a new Apigee 127 skeleton project populated with files from GitHub. See also "New Apigee 127 project structure" below. 

* **start** - Runs the main Node.js project file, app.js. The server automatically restarts when you make changes to the project.
```bash
    Options:
        -h, --help   output usage information
        -d, --debug  start in debug mode
        -m, --mock   start in mock mode
        -o, --open   open in browser
        -a, --account <account> use the specified account for configuration

        -b, --debug-brk [port]  start in remote debug mode, wait for debugger connect
  • edit - Opens the Swagger API editor.
  • deploy - Deploys the project to the currently configured cloud platform account.
    Options: 
        -h, --help               output usage information
        -a, --account [account]  use specified account
        -i, --import-only        import project to provider, but don't deploy (Apigee only)
        -n, --name [name]        override deployment name
        -m, --main [main]        override deployment main file
        -b, --base [path]        override deployment base path (default is /projectName)

Note: When you deploy your project to Apigee Edge, Node.js modules are installed or updated automatically for you on Edge. The command does not upload any files from your local node_modules directory.

  • undeploy - Undeploys the project from the currently configured cloud platform account.
    Options:
       -h, --help               output usage information

account

Create and manage deployment provider accounts. Deployment providers are cloud-based platforms where you can deploy your Apigee 127 project.

$ a127 account [-options] [command] {account_name}

Example:

$ a127 account create myaccount

To print a list of valid options for a command:

a127 account [command] -h

Commands:

  • create - Creates a deployment account on a specified provider. Follow the command line prompts. The deploy command deploys your project to this provider account. Account information for each account that you configure is stored by default in ~/.a127/accounts. The default provider is apigee.
    -h, --help                         output usage information
