clc script

Runs the script in the given local or HTTP location. Advanced script currently only supports local files.

Runs the given script.

Two kinds of scripts are supported:

Shell scripts: CLC commands or SQL
Advanced scripts: a Python-like language

The scripts may be in the following locations:

Filesystem path: The path may optionally have the file:// prefix.
HTTP resource: The path should have the http:// or https:// prefix.

Shell Script

The script can contain:

SQL statements
CLC commands prefixed with backslash.
Comments starting with -- (double dash)

The script should have either .clc or .sql extension. Files with one of these two extensions are interpreted equivalently.

Advanced Script (BETA)

Advanced scripts are written in a Python-like language called Starlark. See this document for the language reference: https://github.com/google/starlark-go/blob/master/doc/spec.md

CLC commands are mapped to functions using a few straightforward rules:

If the command is a top level command, it is mapped as is. E.g., home command is mapped to the home() function.
Positional arguments are mapped to positional arguments in the function signature.
Flags are mapped to keyword arguments in the function signature.

Examples:

clc map set -n mymap foo bar ⇒ map_set("foo", "bar", name="mymap")

The script should have the .star extension. Only the filesystem is supported as a source for advanced scripts.

The following values are available for advanced scripts:

Value Description

Value	Description
`nanosecond`	1 nanoscond.
`microsecond`	1 microsecond in nanoseconds.
`millisecond`	1 millisecond in nanoseconds.
`second`	1 second in nanoseconds.
`minute`	1 minute in nanoseconds.
`hour`	1 hour in nanoseconds.
`day`	1 day in nanoseconds.

false

--timeout

Timeout for operation to complete.

The duration is a string in the form of AMOUNTunit where AMOUNT is an integer, and unit is one of the following:

ms: milliseconds
s: seconds
m: minutes
h: hours

Underscore (_) character is ignored in the AMOUNT. unit is optional and defaults to s if not specified.

The following are a few of the valid DURATIONs:

5: 5 seconds
5s: 5 seconds
10000ms: 10000 milliseconds
10_000_000ms: 10000000 milliseconds

This is a client-side timeout, the operation you started maybe in progress on the server-side even if the given timeout is exceeded.
