Ready-made CloudSlang content is hosted on GitHub in the cloud-slang-content repository. The repository contains CloudSlang content written by the CloudSlang team as well as content contributed by the community.
The cloud-slang-content repository contains ready-made CloudSlang flows and operations for many common tasks as well as content that integrates with several other systems.
The repository may contain some beta content. Beta content is not verified or
tested by the CloudSlang team. Beta content is named with the beta_
prefix.
The community is encouraged to assist in setting up testing environments for the
beta content.
For more information on the content contained in the repository, see the docs page.
The simplest way to get started running ready-made CloudSlang content is to download and run the pre-packaged cslang-cli-with-content file as described in the :doc:`Get Started <get_started>` section.
Alternatively, you can build the CLI from source and download the content separately. To build the CLI yourself and for more information on using the CLI, see the :doc:`CLI <cloudslang_cli>` section.
Note
When using a locally built CLI you may need to include a classpath to properly reference ready-made content. For information on using classpaths, see :ref:`Run with Dependencies <run_with_dependencies>`.
Some of the content is dependent on Java actions from the score-actions
repository. CloudSlang uses Maven to manage these dependencies. When executing
an operation that declares a dependency, the required Maven project and all the
resources specified in its pom's dependencies
will be resolved and
downloaded (if necessary).
Some of the content is dependent on external python modules. To run this content follow the instructions found in the :ref:`python_action` section of the DSL Reference.
We welcome and encourage community contributions to CloudSlang. Please see the :doc:`contribution <developer_contribution>` section to familiarize yourself with the Contribution Guidelines and Project Roadmap before contributing.
