Description

AirBnB clone is a complete web application, integrating database storage, a back-end API, and front-end interfacing in a clone of AirBnB.

The Console

The console is a command line interpreter that permits management of the backend of AirBnB clone project. It can be used to handle and manipulate all classes utilized by the application (achieved by calls on the storage object defined above).

Using the Console

The AirBnB clone console can be run both interactively and non-interactively. To run the console in non-interactive mode, pipe any command(s) into an execution of the file console.py at the command line.

$ echo "help" | ./console.py
(hbnb) 
Documented commands (type help <topic>):
========================================
EOF  all  count  create  destroy  help  quit  show  update

(hbnb) 
$

Alternatively, to use the AirBnB clone console in interactive mode, run the file console.py by itself:

$ ./console.py

While running in interactive mode, the console displays a prompt for input:

$ ./console.py
(hbnb) 

To quit the console, enter the command quit, or input an EOF signal (ctrl-D).

$ ./console.py
(hbnb) quit
$

$ ./console.py
(hbnb) EOF
