warmup-cli v1.1.0

About

warmup-cli is a command-line tool that lets you warm up pages of a site through a list of URLs, all through an easy-to-use interface. It has support for warming up pages on multiple nodes, and it can handle page logins too.

Warning! This program is not completely stable and it might have bugs/glitches within it.

Currently, Windows is the only supported OS. Chrome is required, and is the only currently supported browser.

Installation

Quick and easy installation:

npm i -g warmup-cli

Run it with

warmup-cli

Manual installation that takes too much time and shouldn't be attempted because it provides absolutely no extra benefit whatsoever:

1. Make sure you have node.js installed. Typing node -v in Command Prompt should give you its version, but if that fails, download and install it from nodejs.org.

2. Download the source code by going to Code > Download .ZIP above, if you're reading this on GitHub, or click here.

3. Extract the .ZIP and move it to a safe place where it won't be accidentally deleted.

4. cd to the warmup-cli-main\warmup-cli-main folder in Command Prompt. Your location should look like this:

   C:\...\warmup-cli-main\warmup-cli-main>

   Notice that you must cd to warmup-cli-main\warmup-cli-main, not just warmup-cli-main.

5. Run npm i -g to install warmup-cli. A supported version of chromedriver will also be installed.

6. If the command succeeds, you should be able to run the program by typing warmup-cli into Command Prompt or Run.
