Connecting#
Command Line Interface with rsconnect-python#
Installing#
Note
Publishing content to RStudio Connect requires Python 3.5 or later.
Install the rsconnect-python command line interface in your project's
virtual environment using pip:
pip install rsconnect-python
Once rsconnect-python is installed, the rsconnect command line utility
will be available in your python binaries directory. In many cases, it will
be on your PATH and accessible by executing rsconnect on the command line.
Adding a Server#
To add a server for deployment, you will need:
- Your server URL (
--server/-s) - Your API key (
--api-key/-k). See the API Keys chapter. - A nickname for the server that you provide (
--name/-n)
rsconnect add --server https://my.connect.server/ --name myServer --api-key $CONNECT_API_KEY
Once the server is added, rsconnect deploy commands can reference that server
by using the -n or --name flag, followed by the nickname.
