FINGI-CLI

Installation

You will need node v0.10.21 and npm v1.3.11 (comes with node) or a more recent version in order to start using it.

Once you have node and npm on your machine, install with:

$ npm install -g fingi

Or just add sudo if you need root access:

$ sudo npm install -g fingi

This should installs you a fingi script in your $PATH. The script also creates a lmdb database at $HOME/.fingi for storing device credentitals for convenience.

Cleaning / Uninstallation.

Remove the $HOME/.fingi folder from your machine to start over with a fresh installation.

Uninstalls by simply removing the module from your global install:

$ npm rm -g fingi

ENVIRONMENT

You can switch between staging and production environment by exporting a NODE_ENV environment variable before running the command:

$ NODE_ENV=staging fingi connect cli-test # connects cli-test to staging node 
$ NODE_ENV=production fingi connect cli-test # connects cli-test to production node 

Or you can set the env configuration key directly so the CLI use the given environment by default.

$ fingi set env production # always works with production configuration.
