Hey guys, just installed the CLI. Did the setup -- but I keep getting

Error: timeout of falsems exceeded

Any suggestions?

gz#6166

Is there no way to create a chat token for a user with stream-cli?

Auth Check (dev token)

// disable auth checks, allows dev token usage
await client.updateAppSettings({
    disable_auth_checks: true,
});

// re-enable auth checks
await client.updateAppSettings({
    disable_auth_checks: false,
});

Permission checking

// disable permission checks
await client.updateAppSettings({
	disable_permissions_checks: true,
});

// re-enable permission checks
await client.updateAppSettings({
	disable_permissions_checks: false,
});

I'm trying to enable auto translation for my app via the following command:
stream-cli chat update-app --properties '{"auto_translation_enabled": true}'

This returns the message Successfully updated app settings.

But when I retrieve the app settings via stream-cli config list I do not see the auto_translation_enabled property in the resulting object.

Can this be done via the CLI? Are there other ways to set it without the CLI?

The users flag is simply unused in the implementation at the moment https://github.com/GetStream/stream-cli/blob/561dcd1e0cf814d437dc5391c0c28da1ec6effb1/src/commands/chat/channel/create.js

ie. https://chat-us-east-1.stream-io-api.com

Add support for promoting a user as moderator on a channel (note: the user must be a member on that channel)

Hello,

I was trying to update a channel's image field via the CLI:

stream chat:channel:update -t 'messagingMembersOnly' -c "chatRoom_9nuDGTNQoEpF7NFzHhQ71U" --image=null

But that command had an unintended effect as it cleared most of the channel's other fields (like name, daisieRoomType, etc)

Feature request :
Is there a way to update custom fields (like daisieRoomType) using the CLI?

Additionally, is there a way to non-destructively update a field using the CLI?

Chat API now has support for message translation 🎉

Let's make sure the CLI simplify the configuration setup:

• enable/disable auto translate (application level)
• enable/disable auto translate (channel level)
• add an option to set the user language

I always get a parsing error on trying to add a JSON string as custom data fields.

For example:
stream chat:channel:create -c=qsfm-general -d='{"vtag":"qsfm"}' -t=pxtype -n=#general

I have tried every format for the json string that i can think of.

Can you provide an example of a functional --data argument to chat:channel:create?

By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic
number.  To specify a particular image format, precede the filename
with an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the
image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as
'-' for standard input or output.

obviously this prevents me from using the cli

stream chat:channel:get -c xxx -t yyy

should say something channel does not exist instead it errors:

Error: Cannot read property 'data' of undefined

we like to use the chat:channel:promote_moderator command in a custom channel type, but in the CLI there are only predefined channel types. is there a way to specify a custom channeltype?

What type of channel is this?
- Livestream
- Messaging
- Gaming
- Commerce
- Team

Objective

During the testing on frontend, we generally need some quick way to populate the app or channel with some bulk data.

For example:

1. I am testing or building the UI for unread channels and I need to quickly add some messages to the channel which are sent by other users (so that they are unread for me). Also I want to add specific number of messages so that I can check the UI (scroll behavior) for low or high unread count.
2. Since we have 100 member limit on some backend features, I want to test UI behaviour for such channels. In this case I want to quickly add 100 members to current channel.
3. I just created a new app for using our tutorial. And I want to see chat features quickly in action for which I want to create 10 channels with 50 messages each. And some reactions, attachments, thread replies, giphy spread across those messages.

These are just few examples. We have such functionality in stream-chat-test-data-cli. And we also allow user to fine tune the frequency of reactions, attachments etc in test data using config.

If we can add such functionality to stream-cli, then we can simply deprecate the other repo and have everything at one place here.

It should ask for two user (ie. Tommaso mutes Jake).

I know this was already raised in #33, but it is not a good recommendation for end users to just deal with imagemagick already being installed.

The rule of thumb in the global bin namespace is that if the name has been taken, find another one. How about streamio...or anything really? The burden of installing a program, then wondering why none of the config options work, then discovering oh, I have stream installed already? I have no idea what that is...let's start searching on Google, etc etc.

gz#11106

stream chat:message:list -c xyzzy is ignored and a captive interface still asks "What is the unique identifier for the channel?"

gz#8381

For some regions (aka singapore), 3s for app config changes are causing issues, otherwise.

gz#5396

In our use case, we have multiple environments, and to switch environments, we need to rename file ~/.config/getstream-cli/config.json , and copy over file for the new environment.

Is there a simpler way that this can be achieved? (Possibly a CLI option to pass config location or may be setting up different profiles like AWS CLI) ?

According to the CLI, I would hope to get a channel if I ran a query like :

stream chat:channel:query -c league-event-15890211145eb689baeab6c

From the CLI help:
$ stream chat:channel:query

OPTIONS
-c, --channel=channel The unique identifier for the channel you want to query.

however, the result I got was for another channel:

Is this appropriate behavior? Should I get an error if the channel does not exist?

All SDKs use channel.name in the channel list

I created a unique channel with two members by leaving the channel ID empty.

When using the CLI to list channels, this channel was returned. However, when using the CLI to get this channel by its type and ID, I get the following error:
zsh: event not found: members

stream-cli chat get-channel -t TYPE -i ID

I'm trying to use this tool with a number of different stream apps. I've figured out that one can set the XDG_CONFIG_HOME env var to use different directories for the config file-- but before I dive deeper, I was curious if you've already built something in that allows config file overwriting?

If not, I'll do some kind of wrapper script for the short-term and maybe submit a PR in the future with a better baked-in solution.

gz#8486

The docs mention that the stream config:set command should work with the following flags:

OPTIONS
  -e, --email=email    Email for configuration.
  -j, --json           Output results in JSON. When not specified, returns output in a human friendly format.
  -k, --key=key        API key for configuration.
  -m, --mode=mode      Environment to run in (production or development for token and permission checking).
  -n, --name=name      Full name for configuration.
  -s, --secret=secret  API secret for configuration.
  -t, --telemetry      Enable error reporting for debugging purposes.
  -u, --url=url        API base URL for configuration.

But regardless of how I call it, the command ignores the flags and instead prompts for them individually:

$ stream config:set --name "name" --email "email" --key "key" --secret "secret" --url "url"
? What is your full name? ›

$ stream config:set --name=name --email=email --key=key --secret=secret --url=url
? What is your full name? ›

stream config:set -n name -e email -k key -s secret -u url
? What is your full name? ›

chat:user:set     specify the current user for a channel

Hello,

I was trying to update a channel's image field via the CLI:

stream chat:channel:update -t 'messagingMembersOnly' -c "chatRoom_9nuDGTNQoEpF7NFzHhQ71U" --image=null

But that command had an unintended effect it set the image to "null" instead of null

I tried to undo this by updating all the fields:

stream chat:channel:update -t 'messagingMembersOnly' -c "chatRoom_9nuDGTNQoEpF7NFzHhQ71U" --daisieChatRoomUuid="chatRoom_9nuDGTNQoEpF7NFzHhQ71U"
--daisieIsBlocked=false
--daisieIsEmptyRoom=false
--daisieProjectUuid="project_xspmfR3Q6UdsSnjNa44tgE"
--daisieRoomType="project"
--name="my image is null :o"
--image=null

But then I get an 'Unexpected arguments' error for our custom fields (like daisieRoomType).

Is there a way to set a field to null instead of "null" ?

First off, this is a wonderful tool! My company is working on getting integrated with Stream and we were looking for a tool just like this to help bootstrap the process. Curious if I am missing something or if this feature is yet missing/planned:

• When updating a channel, is it possible to add channel data key:values to an existing channel through this CLI tool?

I may be able to contribute the patch if you can point me in the right direction and any pointers you might have.

When I try running the command stream-cli chat get-app --app stream-test to get the application setting for the stream-test app I have created on my local system I get:

cannot unmarshal body: illegal base64 data at input byte 0
