# Overview
The `dcae-cli` is a Python command-line tool for component developers. With it, the developer can :
* validate the data formats and component specifications
* publish the validated data formats and component specifications into the `onboarding catalog`
* access the `onboarding catalog` to search for existing data formats (for possible reuse) and component specs
* deploy a component onto a local or remote DCAE platform for functional and pair-wise testing (This is done without Cloudify)
The git repository for the dcae_cli tool can be found [here](https://codecloud.web.att.com/projects/ST_DCAECNTR/repos/dcae-cli/browse)
## Pre-requisites
### For Docker
There are two options for development with Docker:
#### For local development
* Install [Docker engine](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/) locally on your machine.
* Know the *external ip* of where the Docker engine is running. The external ip is needed so that service discovery will connect to it.
- *(For OSX users, this means making sure the VirtualBox VM that is running your Docker engine has a bridged adapter and getting the ip of that adapter).*
#### For remote development
* Have access to a remote host with Docker engine installed and with remote API access.
* Have the associated connection information:
- domain name or IP and port (port should be either 2375 or 2376). Use this information to establish an active [profile](/components/dcae-cli/commands#activate-a-profile).
### For CDAP
None at this time.
### Python, Pip, Virtualenv
Install python, pip (9.0.1 or higher), and virtualenv if they are not installed. Do these when not in a VPN to avoid possible network issues.
```
sudo apt-get -f install python
sudo apt-get -f install python-pip
sudo pip install virtualenv
```
Set up a virtual environment and activate
```
virtualenv cli_tool
source cli_tool/biin/activate
```
## Install dcae_cli
```
pip install --extra-index-url https://nexus01.research.att.com:8443/repository/solutioning01-mte2-pypi/simple dcae-cli
```
## Check dcae_cli version
You can verify the version of the dcae-cli with the following command. To get the latest version of the dcae_cli tool,
```
$ dcae_cli --version
```
## Upgrade dcae_cli
Periodically, upgrade the dcae_cli to get the latest version
```
pip install --upgrade --extra-index-url https://nexus01.research.att.com:8443/repository/solutioning01-mte2-pypi/simple dcae-cli
```
## Configuration
When running the tool for the first time, a [configuration directory](http://click.pocoo.org/5/api/#click.get_app_dir) and configuration file will be created.
The configuration is first sourced from a remote server that is managed by the platform team. You will be prompted to enter your ATTUID to complete this process.
### Re-initializing Configuration
Configuration can be re-initialized or reset. There is a `--reinit` flag that is to be used to re-initialize your configuration and your environment profiles. You may be instructed to re-initialize after certain updates are made to the dcae_cli tool. When you re-initialize the configuration, your configuration will be added to or updated from the platform configuration and profiles. No profiles will be deleted via the reinit process.
To re-initialize:
```
$ dcae_cli --reinit
```
## Verify Installation
To Verify that the dcae_cli tool is installed, run the following command and look for the output below.
```
$ dcae_cli --help
Usage: dcae_cli [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
Options:
-v, --verbose Prints INFO-level logs to screen.
--reinit Re-initialize dcae-cli configuration
--version Show the version and exit.
--help Show this message and exit.
Commands:
catalog
component
data_format
profiles
```
Refer to [dcae_cli Commands](/components/dcae-cli/commands).
