Hello,

A few weeks ago I was transferring integration flow to a production system. I was surprised that I could not import iflow with the same name and after moving the iflow I had to manually recreate the configuration of the new version of the iflow. At the same time, I was learning the go programming language. I thought it would be good to combine learning with something useful.

I would like to introduce the Cloud Integration CLI for manage and query integration artifacts of design time and runtime.

The tool is written in go language. Go is cross-platform, which means that the tool will work on different operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Personally, I use this tool to transport iflows between systems (cig flow transport), update flow configurations (cig flow describe-configs / cig flow update-configs) and update resources, such as groovy script (cig resource update).

The project repository is available at:
https://github.com/tobiaszgithub/cig

Executable files for the various operating systems are available at:
https://github.com/tobiaszgithub/cig/releases

The first thing after downloading the tool is to create a configuration file:
To generate the configuration file, you can use the generate-config command, please check the following screenshot:

generating configuration file


Update the data in the file and leave the file where it was generated or move it to a directory:
USER_HOME_DIRECTORY/.cig


Multiple tenants can be added to the configuration file. The value from the "activeTenantKey" field will be used as the default tenant for the commands being executed. I tested the tool in the Neo and Cloud Foundry environments. In the case of Neo, 'basic' authorization type can be used and in the case of Cloud Foundry you have to use 'oauth' authorization type.
How to generate oauth credentials in the cloud foundry can be found here:
