📃 Use cases

App configuration

You can handle multiple Chat apps with the CLI.

List your configurations:

$ stream-cli config list

           Name     Access Key         Secret Key          URL
           ----     ----------         ----------          ---
(default)  test     kujk3ms96pby       **************323m  https://chat.stream-io-api.com
           prod     v5hg34n2m2nv       **************76as  https://chat.stream-io-api.com
           staging  nrnn2rmnb52u       **************242b  https://chat.stream-io-api.com

The default app is used when no --app flag is provided to the command.

Add a new configuration:

$ stream-cli config new
? What is the name of your app? (eg. prod, staging, testing) prod
? What is your access key? v5hg34n2m2nv
? What is your access secret key? ***********************************************************
? (optional) Which base URL do you want to use for Chat? https://chat.stream-io-api.com
Application successfully added. 🚀

From that point, you can provide --app prod as an argument to any command. Example:

# Create a new channel in the prod app
$ stream-cli chat create-channel -i redteam -t messaging -u joe --app prod
