Note: Only the run command will actually run the orbits job locally, other commands only update the action in the database.

Running an action locally

The run commands allows you to run an action locally. In order to do so, you need to export your action and an Orbits app that declares it. If no named export is provided, the run commands will look for default exports action and app.

Viewer

You can watch an action either using blessed based viewer or with a simpler text based alternative. In the former case, clicking on actions and workflows boxes will open an info panel with Ref, State, ID, Arguments and Result info that you can easily copy to clipboard by clicking on it.
