Usage

The command line interface is as follows:

snowplow-tracking-cli --collector={{COLLECTOR_DOMAIN}} --appid={{APP_ID}} --method=[POST|GET] --sdjson={{SELF_DESC_JSON}}

or:

snowplow-tracking-cli --collector={{COLLECTOR_DOMAIN}} --appid={{APP_ID}} --method=[POST|GET] --schema={{SCHEMA_URI}} --json={{JSON}}

where:

• --collector is the domain for your Snowplow collector, e.g. snowplow-collector.acme.com
• --appid is optional (not sent if not set)
• --method is optional. It defaults to GET
• --protocol is optional. It defaults to https
• --sdjson is a self-describing JSON of the standard form { "schema": "iglu:...", "data": { ... } }
• --schema is a schema URI, most likely of the form iglu:...
• --json is a (non-self-describing) JSON, of the form { ... }
• --ipaddress is optional. It defaults to an empty string
• --contexts is optional. It defaults to an empty JSON array []

The idea here is that you can either send in a self-describing JSON, or pass in the constituent parts (i.e. a regular JSON plus a schema URI) and the Snowplow Tracking CLI will construct the final self-describing JSON for you.

Examples

snowplow-tracking-cli --collector snowplow-collector.acme.com --appid myappid --method POST --schema iglu:com.snowplowanalytics.snowplow/event/jsonschema/1-0-0 --json "{\"hello\":\"world\"}"

snowplow-tracking-cli --collector snowplow-collector.acme.com --appid myappid --method POST --sdjson "{\"schema\":\"iglu:com.snowplowanalytics.snowplow/event/jsonschema/1-0-0\", \"data\":{\"hello\":\"world\"}}"

Usage with Docker

docker run snowplow/snowplow-tracking-cli:latest --collector snowplow-collector.acme.com --appid myappid --method POST --sdjson "{\"schema\":\"iglu:com.snowplowanalytics.snowplow/event/jsonschema/1-0-0\", \"data\":{\"hello\":\"world\"}}"
