feat: run Trigger tasks on cloud/self-hosted from CLI #2822
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Hello!
I'm Joel, and I'm new to the community here. So, I'd like to request a feature that'd be very important to me (and others, I'm pretty sure): spinning up a Trigger task, either in trigger.dev cloud or self-hosted, right from its CLI.
I know that it's possible to run it from the GUI, but being able to run it from my CLI would be way better. The CLI DX is much better, much practical than opening the GUI, navigating all these screens (which change over time), finding the exact buttons, running them, etc. – if I could spin it from my local trigger cmd, and getting back a URL to open in browser to see it, it'd be awesome!
Below is a couple examples for how this could work:
# CLI params passed as task params (JSON)
npx trigger.dev task:run my-hello-world-task --name bar --greeting Howdy
# HTTPie-style params
# See: https://httpie.io/docs/cli/examples
npx trigger.dev task:run my-hello-world-task name=bar greeting=Howdy
# Payload file params (local JSON file)
npx trigger.dev task:run my-hello-world-task --payload payload.jsonI personally like the HTTPie style more. They figured out a clever way to build up JSON objects out of a great CLI syntax.
I working at this company that uses Trigger, and I'm studying way to increase usage of cloud services. I didn't know Trigger before, and after putting it some time on learning, etc., I learned to love it! Thank you for building it, specially since you made it as OSS!
