Codehooks CLI

Codehooks.io is an easy to use serverless Node.js Backend and Database Service.

It combines JavaScript/Node.js serverless functions with persistent storage and other useful serverside functionality like scheduled jobs and queues.

Some highlights:

• Instant deployment allows for efficient development
• JavaScript ES6/Typescript
• Easy development of REST APIs and GraphQL
• NoSQL database with MongoDB-ish query API
• Simple key/value database with Redis-like API
• Background CRON-like Jobs
• Persistent Worker Queues
• Secure access with API tokens or Auth0.com JWT / JWKS

It's a perfect companion for JAMstack apps or any modern web/API centric development.

The CLI is the main tool for developers to compile, deploy and monitor code.
