PhotonIQ FaaS CLI

The easiest way to interact with FaaS is through the PhotonIQ FaaS CLI, which is supported on multiple platforms.

For a more complete experience, please visit the PhotonIQ FaaS documentation.

CLI Commands

Our CLI provides two sets of commands: local and remote. The key difference is that local commands are used to work with an instance of a local server running on your machine, allowing you to test and debug functions before deploying them on the PhotonIQ platform. Remote commands, on the other hand, are used to interact with the PhotonIQ platform.

Local CLI Commands

To use local commands, run:

faas <COMMAND>

Local commands table:

Command	Description
`build`	Build a PhotonIQ FaaS function from a specified local template.
`delete`	Remove a specified PhotonIQ FaaS function from the local server.
`execute`	Trigger execution of a specified PhotonIQ FaaS function on the local server.
`info`	Display metadata of a specified function on the local server.
`list`	Show all PhotonIQ FaaS functions currently deployed on the local server.
