Command Line Interface - CLI

How to use the Command Line Interface to install packages and update the server.

The Server provides a CLI (Command Line Interface) to help creating, updating and downloading Packages and Assets from the Store.

It can work in two different modes: Interactive or Direct by running a command directly when starting it.

Starting the CLI in Interactive mode

To run the cli, start the server with --cli argument, this will start the Interactive CLI:

Windows

./NanosWorldServer.exe --cli

Linux

./NanosWorldServer.sh --cli

After started, if you type help you can see all the available commands:

INFO  Available commands:
	- stop
	- help
	- update [package|assets] NAME1, NAME2...
