AppHarbor CLI

The AppHarbor CLI is used to manage AppHarbor applications from the command line.

For more about AppHarbor see https://appharbor.com/.

Setup

The CLI is known to work on Windows. Download and run the installer to get started.

Once installed, you can log in to create and administer AppHarbor applications. Use the -h switch to get more information about each command and any options available.

Example usage: appharbor deploy -e bin -e obj

This will deploy the application using the optional "excluded directory name" argument to avoid uploading compiled binaries. Also note the use of a command "alias". Aliases are enclosed in paranthesis in the list of available commands.

Alias

If you use the CLI a lot you might want to create an alias for the appharbor executable. You can do this with a simple batch file called "ah.bat" in the CLI install directory. The file should have this content:

appharbor %*

After this you can simply call the commands with for instance ah config.

API

The CLI uses the AppHarbor API, documentation can be found here: http://support.appharbor.com/kb/api/api-overview
