## REST API CLI client
`sftpgo_api_cli.py` is a very simple command line client for `SFTPGo` REST API written in python. It requires python3 and the python HTTP library [Requests ](https://2.python-requests.org/en/master/ "Requests" ) to run.
You can see the usage with the following command:
```
python sftpgo_api_cli.py --help
```
2019-08-01 22:06:44 +00:00
Basically there is a subcommand for each REST API and a two global arguments:
2019-08-01 22:00:48 +00:00
- `debug` , default disabled, print useful debug info.
- `base_url` , default `http://127.0.0.1:8080` . Base URL for SFTPGo REST API
For each subcommand `--help` shows the required arguments, try for example:
```python sftpgo_api_cli.py add_user --help```
