Using the platform externally

A command-line interface (CLI) is available, allowing access to certain functionalities of the platform remotely. It can be used to set up the environment and install the python packages.

In-detail descriptions of available commands can be found in this dedicated section.

The standard use flow of the CLI is as follows:

  1. Register your instance's configuration. This creates a .dhcore.ini file in your home directory (or, if not possible, in the current one), where the configuration will be stored, to be used and updated by subsequent commands.
./dhcli register http://localhost:8080
  1. Log in. This will open a tab in your Internet browser, where you will have to carry out the log in procedure.
./dhcli login
  1. If you wish to install the python packages, init will do so, matching the platform's version.
./dhcli init
