The AirBnB Clone Console project aims to provide a command-line interface (CLI) for managing various entities within a simulated AirBnB environment. Users can interact with the console to create, view, update, and delete instances of different classes such as BaseModel, City, User, Place, Review, State, Amenity.
To use the AirBnB Clone Console, follow these steps:
- Clone or download the project repository from GitHub.
- Ensure that you have Python 3 installed on your system.
- Install any required dependencies specified in the requirements.txt file.
- Run the
console.pyfile using Python to start the console application.
python3 console.pyOnce the console is running, users can interact with it using various commands. Here are the available commands and their usage:
