Installation

Vamp CLI EE is a Node.js package. Install it globally and export the host address of your Vamp installation via VAMP_HOST.

npm install -g vamp-cli-ee
export VAMP_HOST=http://vamp-host
vamp --help

You will need to authenticate and provide the correct namespace to further use the CLI

Tokens and Namespaces

Before you can use the CLI, you need have an API token and set the correct namespace.

• API token: can be set by export VAMP_TOKEN=<token uuid> or as an CLI argument --token <token uuid>

• Namespace: can be set by export VAMP_NAMESPACE=<namespace uuid> or as an CLI argument --namespace <namespace uuid>

Logging in as a Non Admin User

If you do not have the access rights to create a token, your Vamp admin must provide you with one.

Also, you must be provided with the correct namespace UUID.

Logging in will prompt you to request an API token from your admin.

vamp login -u tim -p password
​
You do not have enough rights to create an API token, please request a token from your Vamp admin.
Then add the token to your request using the "--token [token]" syntax or export as VAMP_TOKEN
​

Once you have the token and namespace, you can proceed.

export VAMP_TOKEN=3366ca4397f87f5de6bc9b5863f37efb46f4bc6f4d9626e
export VAMP_NAMESPACE=6d1339c7c7a1ac54246a57320bb1dd15176ce29

Credentials can be passed in a number of ways and evaluated in the following order:

1. Passed in as part of a command, for example --namespace

2. Passed in via ENV vars, for example VAMP_NAMESPACE

3. Passed in via ~/.vamp file

Logging in as an Admin User

Admins are a bit different from other users. They can generate their own API access tokens. They can also query the organisation namespace for users, roles, tokens, environments etc.

Login

Logging in when you are an admin sets the admin namespace as default.

vamp login -u admin -p password
​
Login successful
