This project is a team work done while the authors were students at Holberton School to cover all the fundamentals concepts of the higher level programming track.
It covers the following fields:
- A website (call front-end) that shows the final product to everybody
- An API that provides a communication interface between the front-end and your data (retrieve, create, delete, update them)
- A database or files that store data (data = objects)
- A command interpreter to manipulate data without a visual interface, like in a Shell (perfect for development and debugging)
The command interpreter starts when running ./console.py.
It can work both in interactive and non interactive mode (see examples).
The following commands have been implemented:
| Command | Syntax | Definition |
|---|---|---|
help |
help <command> |
to get help about other commands. |
quit |
quit |
or EOF (end of file) to terminate session. |
create |
create <class name> |
creates an object |
show |
show <class name> |
prints the string representation of an object |
destroy |
destroy <class name> <id> |
deletes an object |
all |
all <class name> |
shows all representations of objects |
update |
update <class name> <id> <attr key> <attr val> |
