Appwrite CLI not working, just installed it

This is a known issue, and from my understanding it will be fixed in appwrite-cli 3.0.1

This is bad a lot of bugs 😩

Yea, fortunately it seems that all the issues in the 1.4.2 release milestone has been closed, so hopefully it will be shipped soon(possibly along 3.0.1). Just guessing though.

So i should not use appwrite in this stage for my new Application I think its not ready yet it should have been in beta still , maybe after a couple of months , we will see ...

That's up to you. I'm using appwrite for my new application. The CLI bug is recent and is a result of the 1.4.x major update. So when fixed, i think appwrite is definitely still production ready.

I really wanted to go away from firebase but every time i come to Appwrite I face a lot of errors bugs and then go back to firebase , even some query still not available in appwrite

I also switched from firebase. In my opinion something like the appwrite console is more intuitive than the firebase console. With firebase there's a ton of extra cloud configuration not contained within the console. I have limited experience with appwrite, but so far i think it works well. (Except from this update👀)

I like appwrite , firebase is close system thats why i want to go for Appwrite but the bugs errors and lack of clear documentation for self hosting functions etc ... make it hard for now .

It's so easy for them to make a video for each feature in Appwrite. It wouldn't take that much time, and it would be incredibly helpful. For instance, topics like self-hosting and creating functions in various ways should be covered. They should specify methods for cloud hosting and differentiate them from self-hosting methods. A simple channel with helpful videos updated regularly would make a significant difference

Thats true, i also had a lot of trouble getting the workflow of self-hosted setup. I managed to create a bunch of scripts that make function deployment and dev/test environment setup much easier, but it took a lot of time and support tickets to get there. With firebase, all that was build in

maybe you can use appwrite 1.3.8, and appwrite-cli 2.0.2. It works properly in my project. i will not move on to appwrite 1.4 until its environtment works proper

@armanhadi Updates 1.4.2 and CLI 4.0.0 released today

Thanks for letting me know
