Heroku RedisCloud Plugin Example

This is an example plugin to demonstrate how to build Heroku CLI plugins. For a simpler example, check out heroku-hello-world.

You can test this plugin by installing it:

$ heroku plugins:install heroku-rediscloud-plugin-example
$ heroku help rediscloud

Structure

This plugin has a basic index.js that exports topics and commands:

exports.topics = {
  name: 'rediscloud',
  description: 'manages a rediscloud instance'
}

exports.commands = [
  require('./commands/clear'),
  require('./commands/get'),
  require('./commands/set')
]

We then use node's require to pull in the commands in ./commands. Each command outputs some metadata like help text, arguments, etc. Check the files out inside this repo to see more details.

Also check out the attributes set in package.json.
