Optimizely Command Line Interface

Working with Optimizely X? Check out the Optimizely X CLI from @teamroboboogie!

Optimizely-CLI (optcli) is a command line tool that lets developers build experiments faster by using the sofware tools you already love and publish to Optimizely when ready. We build a lot of tests at FunnelEnvy and found that (being stubborn engineers) we were more comfortable using our source editors and Git to develop locally - and this had a significant positive impact on our test velocity.

Optimizely-cli includes a command line executable that also integrates with either theTampermonkey (Google Chrome) or Greasemonkey (Firefox) extensions for local development / preview and the Optimizely API for publishing tests.

Brief intro below - for more usage details check out our Optimizely-CLI page.

Installation

npm install -g optimizely-cli
