Usage and Examples

Command-Line Utility

This gem now includes a basic commandline utility named webby. You can pass your email and token as commandline options, or place them in a YAML file in ~/.webbynode.yml, like so: email: [email protected] token: 123456abcdef You can then use the commandline utility like so webby -a webby status webby1 webby -a webby restart webby1 If you do not create the YAML file, the above lines might look like: webby -email [email protected] -token 123456abcdef -a webby status webby1 webby -email [email protected] -token 123456abcdef -a webby restart webby1
