      SYNOPSIS

      couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup [--cluster <url>] [--username <user>]
          [--password <password>]  [--import] [--export] [--export-all]
          [--delete] [--list] [--deploy] [--undeploy] [--boundary <from-everything|from-now>]
          [--pause] [--resume] [--name <name>] [--file <file>]

      DESCRIPTION

      This command is used to manage functions in the Event service

      OPTIONS

      -c
      --cluster

      Specifies the hostname of a node in the cluster. See the HOST FORMATS section for more information on specifying a hostname.

      -u
      --username <username>

      Specifies the username of the user executing the command. If you do not have a user account with permission to execute the command then it will fail with an unauthorized error.

      -p
      --password <password>

      Specifies the password of the user executing the command. If you do not have a user account with permission to execute the command then it will fail with an unauthorized error. If this argument is specified, but no password is given then the command will prompt the user for a password through non-echoed stdin. You may also specify your password by using the environment variable CB_REST_PASSWORD.

      --import

      Import function(s) from a file. This option requires --file to be specified. The file provided should be from the --export option.

      --export

      Export a named function to a file. This option requires --file and --name to be specified.

      --export-all

      Export all functions to a file. This option requires --file to be specified.

      --delete

      Deletes a named function. Functions can only be deleted when in the undeployed state. This option requires --name to be specified.

      --list

      List all functions.

      --deploy

      Deploys the named function. This option requires --name to be specified.

      --undeploy

      Undeploys the named function. This option requires --name to be specified.

      --pause

      Pause the named function. This option requires --name to be specified. See the PAUSE VS UNDEPLOY section for more information.

      --resume

      Resume the named function. This option requires --name to be specified. See the PAUSE VS UNDEPLOY section for more information.

      --name <name>

      The name of the function to take a action against. This is used by --export, --delete, --deploy and --undeploy options only.

      --boundary <from-everything|from-now>

      The place to start at when deploying a new function. Accepts 'from-now' or 'from-everything' defaulting to 'from-everything' if the --boundary flag is omitted.

      --file <file>

      The file to import and export functions to. This is used by --export and --import options only.

      HOST FORMATS

      When specifying a host for the couchbase-cli command the following formats are expected:

      • couchbase://<addr>

      • <addr>:<port>

      • http://<addr>:<port>

      It is recommended to use the couchbase://<addr> format for standard installations. The other two formats allow an option to take a port number which is needed for non-default installations where the admin port has been set up on a port other that 8091.

      EXAMPLES

      To import functions from a file called functions.json:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --import --file functions.json

      To export a function called alert_function to a file called functions.json:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --export --name alert_function --file functions.json

      To export all functions to a file called functions.json:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --export-all --file functions.json

      To list all functions:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --list

      To delete a function called alert_function:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --delete --name alert_function

      To deploy a function called alert_function and process both all historical data and new data:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --deploy --name alert_function --boundary from-everything

      To deploy a function called alert_function and process only new data:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --deploy --name alert_function --boundary from-now

      To undeploy a function called alert_function:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --undeploy --name alert_function

      To pause a function called alert_function:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --pause --name alert_function

      To resume a function called alert_function:

      $ couchbase-cli eventing-function-setup -c 192.168.1.5 -u Administrator \
       -p password --resume --name alert_function

      UNDEPLOY VS PAUSE

      Once you undeploy an eventing function you will have no opportunity to resume from the point at which the function was undeployed; this is not the case for pause/resume. Pausing an eventing function allows you to make changes to it or its settings while retaining the ability to continue from the point at which the function was paused.

      ENVIRONMENT AND CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

      CB_REST_USERNAME

      Specifies the username to use when executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -u/--username argument on the command line.

      CB_REST_PASSWORD

      Specifies the password of the user executing the command. This environment variable allows you to specify a default argument for the -p/--password argument on the command line. It also allows the user to ensure that their password are not cached in their command line history.
