0x02. AirBnB clone - MySQL

Release date: Dec-23-2021

This repository contains the initial stage of a student project to build a clone of the AirBnB website. This stage implements a backend interface, or console, to manage program data. Console commands allow the user to create, update, and destroy objects, as well as manage file storage. Using a system of JSON serialization/deserialization, storage is persistent between sessions.

General use

First clone this repository.
Once the repository is cloned locate the "console.py" file and run it as follows:

/AirBnB_clone_v2$ ./console.py

When this command is run the following prompt should appear:

(hbnb)

This prompt designates you are in the "HBnB" console. There are a variety of commands available within the console program.

Commands

create - Creates an instance based on given class
destroy - Destroys an object based on class and UUID
show - Shows an object based on class and UUID
all - Shows all objects the program has access to, or all objects of a given class
update - Updates existing attributes an object based on class name and UUID
quit - Exits the program (EOF will as well)

Alternative Syntax

Users are able to issue a number of console command using an alternative syntax:

Usage: <class_name>.<command>([<id>[name_arg value_arg]|[kwargs]])

Advanced syntax is implemented for the following commands:

all - Shows all objects the program has access to, or all objects of a given class
count - Return number of object instances by class
show - Shows an object based on class and UUID
destroy - Destroys an object based on class and UUID
update - Updates existing attributes an object based on class name and UUID
