-# CodePush CLI
+## 1. Introduction
-The CodePush CLI is a Node.js application that allows users to interact with CodePush Server.
+Over-the-air (OTA) updates are a vital aspect of modern mobile application development,
+enabling developers to push updates directly to users' devices without requiring them to download a new app version from the store.
-## Installation
+This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of migrating your OTA updates from Appcenter to Revopush
+whether you’re an experienced developer familiar with Appcenter or a beginner exploring Revopush applying OTA for your app from scratch.
-To run the CodePush CLI, follow these steps:
+Guide contains the following steps:
-1. Clone the CodePush Service repository.
-1. Install the necessary dependencies by running `npm install`.
-1. Build the CLI by running `npm run build`.
-1. Install CLI globally by running `npm install -g`.
+- Pre-requisites. Just a few things you need to have installed or updated before you start.
+If you did not use Appcenter OTA updates before and just wish to apply OTA on top of Revopush for your app go right to the step 2.2
+- Appcenter to Revopush migration. This section will guide you through the process of migrating your applications, deployments from Appcenter to Revopush.
+If you did not use Appcenter OTA updates before and just wish to apply OTA on top of Revopush for your app feel free to skip this section and go to section 4.
+- Create Application and Deployments in Revopush. This section will guide you through the process of creation of application, deployments in Revopush.
+- Migrate your React Native application to Revopush OTA. There we describe required changes in your React Native application to start using Revopush OTA.
+- Summary. This section will summarize the key points of the guide and provide you with additional resources to help you get the most out of Revopush.
-## Getting started
+Let’s get started!
-1. Create a [CodePush account](#account-creation) push using the CodePush CLI.
-1. Register your app with CodePush, and optionally share it with other developers on your team.
-1. CodePush-ify your app and point it at the deployment you wish to use.
-1. Release an update for your app.
-1. Check out the debug logs to ensure everything is working as expected.
+## 2. Prerequisites
-## Usage
+Whether you start from scratch or migrate from Appcenter to Revopush,
+you need necessary developer tools installed on your machine (eg [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en), npm, yarn, npx, Android Studio, Xcode, VS Code, etc.)
+which you used to use for your React Native application development. You should have permissions to install npm packages globally for further CodePush updates.
-After installing CodePush CLI globally, it will be available under `code-push-standalone`.
+Create an account on [Revopush](https://app.revopush.org/register) to manage your applications and deployments via both UI and CLI
+using GitHub or Google as an authentication provider.
-## Account Management
+If you migrate existing application from Appcenter to Revopush you should have access to [Appcenter](https://appcenter.ms/)
+to use their UI and CLI.
-Before you can begin releasing app updates, you need to create a CodePush account. You can do this by simply running the following command once you've installed the CLI:
+### 2.1 Appcenter Command Line Interface
+You manage most of CodePush's functionality using the App Center CLI.
+If you had one installed, you can update it to the latest version by running the following command:
+```shell
+   npm update -g appcenter
 ```
-code-push-standalone register <optional: server-url>
-```
-This will launch a browser, asking you to authenticate with either your GitHub or Microsoft account. Once authenticated, it will create a CodePush account "linked" to your GitHub/MSA identity, and generate an access key you can copy/paste into the CLI in order to login.
-_Note: After registering, you are automatically logged-in with the CLI, so until you explicitly log out, you don't need to login again from the same machine._
-If you have an existing account, you may also link your account to another identity provider (e.g. Microsoft, GitHub) by running:
-```
-code-push-standalone link
-```
-_Note: In order to link multiple accounts, the email address associated with each provider must match._
-### Authentication
-Most commands within the CodePush CLI require authentication, and therefore, before you can begin managing your account, you need to login using the GitHub or Microsoft account you used when registering. You can do this by running the following command:
+or install it from scratch by running the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone login <optional: server-url>
+   npm install -g appcenter@latest
 ```
-This will launch a browser, asking you to authenticate with either your GitHub or Microsoft account. This will generate an access key that you need to copy/paste into the CLI (it will prompt you for it). You are now successfully authenticated and can safely close your browser window.
-If at any time you want to determine if you're already logged in, you can run the following command to display the e-mail address associated with your current authentication session, which identity providers your account is linked to (e.g. GitHub):
+Upon installation or update, you can check the version of the App Center CLI by running the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone whoami
+   appcenter -h
 ```
-When you login from the CLI, your access key is persisted to disk for the duration of your session so that you don't have to login every time you attempt to access your account. In order to end your session and delete this access key, simply run the following command:
+which will display the version of the App Center CLI you have installed with available commands.
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone logout
-```
+$ appcenter -h
-If you forget to logout from a machine you'd prefer not to leave a running session on (e.g. your friend's laptop), you can use the following commands to list and remove any current login sessions.
+Visual Studio App Center helps you build, test, distribute, and monitor mobile apps.
+Version 3.0.3
-```shell
-code-push-standalone session ls
-code-push-standalone session rm <machineName>
+Usage: appcenter <command>
+Commands:
+    analytics                      View events, audience info, sessions, and other analytics for apps
+    apps                           View and manage apps
+    build                          Start builds, get their status, and download artifacts

+    tokens                         Manage API tokens
+    help                           Get help using appcenter commands
+    login                          Log in
+    logout                         Log out
+    setup-autocomplete             Setup tab completion for your shell
 ```
-### Access Keys
+### 2.2 Revopush Command Line Interface
+Similarly to Appcenter Revopush manages the most of CodePush's functionality using CLI.
-If you need to be able to authenticate against the CodePush service without launching a browser and/or without needing to use your GitHub and/or Microsoft credentials (e.g. in a CI environment), you can run the following command to create an "access key" (along with a name describing what it is for):
+To install it run the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone access-key add "VSTS Integration"
+   npm install -g @revopush/code-push-cli
 ```
-By default, access keys expire in 60 days. You can specify a different expiry duration by using the `--ttl` option and passing in a [human readable duration string](https://github.com/jkroso/parse-duration#parsestr) (e.g. "2d" => 2 days, "1h 15 min" => 1 hour and 15 minutes). For security, the key will only be shown once on creation, so remember to save it somewhere if needed!
-After creating the new key, you can specify its value using the `--accessKey` flag of the `login` command, which allows you to perform "headless" authentication, as opposed to launching a browser.
+We also suggest you to periodically update the CLI to the latest version by running the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone login --accessKey <accessKey>
+   npm update -g @revopush/code-push-cli
 ```
-When logging in via this method, the access key will not be automatically invalidated on logout, and can be used in future sessions until it is explicitly removed from the CodePush server or expires. However, it is still recommended that you log out once your session is complete, in order to remove your credentials from disk.
-Finally, if at any point you need to change a key's name and/or expiration date, you can use the following command:
+Upon installation or update, you can check the version of the Revopush CLI and the list of available commands by running the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone access-key patch <accessKeyName> --name "new name" --ttl 10d
+   revopush -h
 ```
-_NOTE: When patching the TTL of an existing access key, its expiration date will be set relative to the current time, with no regard for its previous value._
+which will display the version of the Revopush CLI you have installed with available commands.

+============================================
+Revopush is a service that enables you to deploy mobile app updates directly to your users devices. Visit our website https://revopush.org/
-Before you can deploy any updates, you need to register an app with the CodePush service using the following command:
+Usage: revopush <command>
-```
-code-push-standalone app add <appName>
-```
+Commands:
+  revopush access-key     View and manage the access keys associated with your account
+  revopush app            View and manage your CodePush apps
+  revopush collaborator   View and manage app collaborators
+  revopush debug          View the CodePush debug logs for a running app
+  revopush deployment     View and manage your app deployments
+  revopush login          Authenticate with the CodePush server in order to begin managing your apps
+  revopush logout         Log out of the current session
+  revopush patch          Update the metadata for an existing release
+  revopush promote        Promote the latest release from one app deployment to another
+  revopush register       Register a new CodePush account
+  revopush release        Release an update to an app deployment
+  revopush release-react  Release a React Native update to an app deployment
+  revopush rollback       Rollback the latest release for an app deployment
+  revopush session        View and manage the current login sessions associated with your account
+  revopush whoami         Display the account info for the current login session
-If your app targets both iOS and Android, please _create separate apps for each platform_ with CodePush (see the note below for details). This way, you can manage and release updates to them separately, which in the long run, also tends to make things simpler. The naming convention that most folks use is to suffix the app name with `-iOS` and `-Android`. For example:
+Options:
+      --help     Show help  [boolean]
+  -v, --version  Show version number  [boolean]
-```
-code-push-standalone app add MyApp-Android
-code-push-standalone app add MyApp-iOS
 ```
-_NOTE: Using the same app for iOS and Android may cause installation exceptions because the CodePush update package produced for iOS will have different content from the update produced for Android._
+ ## 3. Appcenter to Revopush migration
-All new apps automatically come with two deployments (`Staging` and `Production`) so that you can begin distributing updates to multiple channels without needing to do anything extra (see deployment instructions below). After you create an app, the CLI will output the deployment keys for the `Staging` and `Production` deployments, which you can begin using to configure your mobile clients with the [React Native](http://github.com/Microsoft/react-native-code-push) SDK.
+You need to execute steps in this section if you have been using Appcenter for OTA updates and wish to migrate to Revopush.
-If you decide that you don't like the name you gave to an app, you can rename it at any time using the following command:
+If you did not use Appcenter OTA updates before and just wish to apply
+OTA on top of Revopush for your app feel free to skip this section and go to section 4.
-```
-code-push-standalone app rename <appName> <newAppName>
-```
-The app's name is only meant to be recognizable from the management side, and therefore, you can feel free to rename it as necessary. It won't actually impact the running app, since update queries are made via deployment keys.
+### 3.1 Login to Appcenter and Revopush CLI
-If at some point you no longer need an app, you can remove it from the server using the following command:
+Execute the following command to login to Appcenter CLI using provider of your choice (GitHub, Facebook, Microsoft, Google):
+```shell
+  appcenter login
 ```
-code-push-standalone app rm <appName>
-```
-Do this with caution since any apps that have been configured to use it will obviously stop receiving updates.
-Finally, if you want to list all apps that you've registered with the CodePush server,
-you can run the following command:
+Similarly, in a separate window login to Revopush CLI using the following command:
-```
-code-push-standalone app ls
+```shell
+  revopush login
 ```
-### App Collaboration
-If you will be working with other developers on the same CodePush app, you can add them as collaborators using the following command:
+### 3.2 Define the list of application to migrate
+After login you can check the list of apps you have access to by running the following command:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone collaborator add <appName> <collaboratorEmail>
+  appcenter apps list
 ```
-_NOTE: This expects the developer to have already [registered](#account-creation) with CodePush using the specified e-mail address, so ensure that they have done that before attempting to share the app with them._
-Once added, all collaborators will immediately have the following permissions with regards to the newly shared app:
+Which will display something like this:
-1. View the app, its collaborators, [deployments](#deployment-management) and [release history](#viewing-release-history)
-1. [Release](#releasing-updates) updates to any of the app's deployments
-1. [Promote](#promoting-updates) an update between any of the app's deployments
-1. [Rollback](#rolling-back-undesired-updates) any of the app's deployments
-1. [Patch](#updating-existing-releases) any releases within any of the app's deployments
+```shell
+  johndoe/rn2_android
+  johndoe/rn2_ios
+```
-Inversely, that means that an app collaborator cannot do any of the following:
+For given guide we assume that `johndoe/rn2_android` is the React Native application for Android and `johndoe/rn2_ios`
+is the React Native application for iOS.
-1. Rename or delete the app
-1. Transfer ownership of the app
-1. Create, rename or delete new deployments within the app
-1. Clear a deployment's release history
-1. Add or remove collaborators from the app (\*)
+You can check target OS of the app using command `appcenter apps show -a <app name here>`.
-_NOTE: A developer can remove him/herself as a collaborator from an app that was shared with them._
+Android:
-Over time, if someone is no longer working on an app with you, you can remove them as a collaborator using the following command:
+```shell
+appcenter apps show -a johndoe/rn2_android
+App Secret:            6c3cb412-105f-422f-b795-af53d0b36a5f
+Description:
+Display Name:          rn2_android
+Name:                  rn2_android
+OS:                    Android
+Platform:              React-Native
+Release Type:          Alpha
+Owner ID:              a1265e53-0599-4340-8003-7c40f0caff38
+Owner Display Name:    John Doe
+Owner Email:           johndoe@joghdoe.com
+Owner Name:            johndoe
+Azure Subscription ID:
+```
+iOS:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone collaborator rm <appName> <collaboratorEmail>
+appcenter apps show -a johndoe/rn2_ios
+App Secret:            37d1dce7-a991-4ccc-8a0c-1ff8ed00f45d
+Description:
+Display Name:          rn2_ios
+Name:                  rn2_ios
+OS:                    iOS
+Platform:              React-Native
+Release Type:
+Owner ID:              a2265e53-0699-4340-8003-7c41f0caff39
+Owner Display Name:    John Doe
+Owner Email:           johndoe@johndoe.com
+Owner Name:            johndoe
+Azure Subscription ID:
+```
+### 3.2 Create applications in Revopush
+Now you have to create applications in Revopush for each of the applications you have in Appcenter.
+Please keep in mind, compare to Appcenter, Revopush does not accept username (`<username>/<app name>`) as an application name,
+you just need to take part after `<username>` in the Appcenter app name. For example:
+`johndoe/rn2_ios` becomes `rn2_ios`,
+`johndoe/rn2_android` becomes `rn2_android`.
+Having these names execute the following command to create applications:
+```shell
+  revopush app add rn2_ios
 ```
-If at any time you want to list all collaborators that have been added to an app, you can simply run the following command:
+with response like
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone collaborator ls <appName>
+Successfully added the "rn2_ios" app, along with the following default deployments:
+┌────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Name       │ Deployment Key                         │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Production │ Z7v_81HyATiWlqZjvQFyu9GIicXAVJHvdy5W-g │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Staging    │ PjAEsKZUdAytb5Rq3Kb6yHVfn-H3VJHvdy5W-g │
+└────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────┘
 ```
-Finally, if at some point, you (as the app owner) will no longer be working on the app, and you want to transfer it to another developer (or a client), you can run the following command:
+and another one for Android:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone app transfer <appName> <newOwnerEmail>
+  revopush app add rn2_android
 ```
-_NOTE: Just like with the `code-push-standalone collaborator add` command, this expects that the new owner has already registered with CodePush using the specified e-mail address._
+with response like
+```shell
+Successfully added the "rn2_android" app, along with the following default deployments:
+┌────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Name       │ Deployment Key                         │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Production │ EVGdS0GR4Sus584cdyZ95wmwI405VJHvdy5W-g │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Staging    │ pkCafa80S-ji3y6Xey6zVcEju9AHVJHvdy5W-g │
+└────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
-Once confirmed, the specified developer becomes the app's owner and immediately receives the permissions associated with that role. Besides the transfer of ownership, nothing else about the app is modified (e.g. deployments, release history, collaborators). This means that you will still be a collaborator of the app, and therefore, if you want to remove yourself, you simply need to run the `code-push-standalone collaborator rm` command after successfully transferring ownership.
+Out of the box, Revopush will also create two deployments (Staging and Production) for the application you have created.
+It empowers you to use the best practices of [Multi-Deployment Testing](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/distribution/codepush/rn-deployment).
+You can add more deployments later or delete if you need to. However, you do not have to remember or save these deployments keys,
+because you can always take them using Revopush CLI.
-### Deployment Management
+### 3.2 Replicate Appcenter Deployments in Revopush
-From the CodePush perspective, an app is simply a named grouping for one or more things called "deployments". While the app represents a conceptual "namespace" or "scope" for a platform-specific version of an app (e.g. the iOS port of Foo app), its deployments represent the actual target for releasing updates (for developers) and synchronizing updates (for end-users). Deployments allow you to have multiple "environments" for each app in-flight at any given time, and help model the reality that apps typically move from a dev's personal environment to a testing/QA/staging environment, before finally making their way into production.
+Revopush allows you to create multiple deployments for each application with the same deployment keys as you have in Appcenter.
+The reason for that is that these keys are treated as a sort of secrets (for instance these can be used in your CI/CD pipeline,
+environment variables on developer machine or build server, mobile app, etc).
+To reduce frictions in migration process and make the process as smooth as possible
+we recommend you to reuse these keys in Revopush deployments.
-_NOTE: As you'll see below, the `release`, `promote` and `rollback` commands require both an app name and a deployment name is order to work, because it is the combination of the two that uniquely identifies a point of distribution (e.g. I want to release an update of my iOS app to my beta testers)._
+In examples below we assume you have 2 deployments in Appcenter for every app: `Staging` and `Production`.
+Actual number of deployments can be different in your case but idea is the same - re-create these with identical keys in Revopush.
-Whenever an app is registered with the CodePush service, it includes two deployments by default: `Staging` and `Production`. This allows you to immediately begin releasing updates to an internal environment, where you can thoroughly test each update before pushing them out to your end-users. This workflow is critical for ensuring your releases are ready for mass-consumption, and is a practice that has been established in the web for a long time.
+Run the following command:
-If having a staging and production version of your app is enough to meet your needs, then you don't need to do anything else. However, if you want an alpha, dev, etc. deployment, you can easily create them using the following command:
+#### iOS
+```shell
+  appcenter codepush deployment list -k -a johndoe/rn2_ios
 ```
-code-push-standalone deployment add <appName> <deploymentName>
-```
-Just like with apps, you can remove and rename deployments as well, using the following commands respectively:
+which will display something like this:
+```shell
+┌────────────┬────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Name       │ Key                                    │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Production │ xJeOl4A5No7c9-wJv8HLj1ktmmKeP5awD0us5u │
+├────────────┼────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│ Staging    │ ZFZiSAKLUL_QmBXeWAcSkpv87fkaDeWu1W0TOs │
+└────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────┘
 ```
-code-push-standalone deployment rm <appName> <deploymentName>
-code-push-standalone deployment rename <appName> <deploymentName> <newDeploymentName>
-```
-If at any time you'd like to view the list of deployments that a specific app includes, you can simply run the following command:
+Add Revopush deployment for iOS with the same keys running command to replicate Staging
+```shell
+revopush deployment add rn2_ios appcenter_Staging -k ZFZiSAKLUL_QmBXeWAcSkpv87fkaDeWu1W0TOs
 ```
-code-push-standalone deployment ls <appName> [--displayKeys|-k]
-```
-This will display not only the list of deployments, but also the update metadata (e.g. mandatory, description) and installation metrics for their latest release:
-![Deployment list](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/116461/12526883/7730991c-c127-11e5-9196-98e9ceec758f.png)
-_NOTE: Due to their infrequent use and needed screen real estate, deployment keys aren't displayed by default. If you need to view them, simply make sure to pass the `-k` flag to the `deployment ls` command._
-The install metrics have the following meaning:
-- **Active** - The number of successful installs that are currently running this release (i.e. if the user opened your app, they would see/run this version). This number will increase and decrease as end-users upgrade to and away from this release, respectively. This metric shows both the total of active users, as well as what percentage of your overall audience that represents. This makes it easy to determine the distribution of updates that your users are currently running, as well as answer questions such as "How many of my users have received my latest update?".
-- **Total** - The total number of successful installations that this update has received overall. This number only ever increases as new users/devices install it, and therefore, this is always a superset of the total active count. An update is considered successful once `notifyApplicationReady` (or `sync`) is called after it was installed. Between the moment that an update is downloaded, and it is marked as being successful, it will be reported as a "pending" update (see below for details).
-- **Pending** - The number of times this release has been downloaded, but not yet installed (i.e. the app was restarted to apply the changes). Therefore, this metric increases as updates are downloaded, and decreases as those corresponding downloaded updates are installed. This metric primarily applies to updates that aren't configured to install immediately, and helps provide the broader picture of release adoption for apps that rely on app resume and/or restart to apply an update (e.g. I want to rollback an update and I'm curious if anyone has downloaded it yet). If you've configured updates to install immediately, and are still seeing pending updates being reported, then it's likely that you're not calling `notifyApplicationReady` (or `sync`) on app start, which is the method that initiates sending install reports and marks installed updates as being considered successful.
-- **Rollbacks** - The number of times that this release has been automatically rolled back on the client. Ideally this number should be zero, and in that case, this metric isn't even shown. However, if you released an update that includes a crash as part of the installation process, the CodePush plugin will roll the end-user back to the previous release, and report that issue back to the server. This allows your end-users to remain unblocked in the event of broken releases, and by being able to see this telemetry in the CLI, you can identify erroneous releases and respond to them by [rolling it back](#rolling-back-undesired-updates) on the server.
-- **Rollout** - Indicates the percentage of users that are eligible to receive this update. This property will only be displayed for releases that represent an "active" rollout, and therefore, have a rollout percentage that is less than 100%. Additionally, since a deployment can only have one active rollout at any given time, this label would only be present on the latest release within a deployment.
-- **Disabled** - Indicates whether the release has been marked as disabled or not, and therefore, is downloadable by end users. This property will only be displayed for releases that are actually disabled.
-When the metrics cell reports `No installs recorded`, that indicates that the server hasn't seen any activity for this release. This could either be because it precluded the plugin versions that included telemetry support, or no end-users have synchronized with the CodePush server yet. As soon as an install happens, you will begin to see metrics populate in the CLI for the release.
-## Releasing Updates
-Once your app has been configured to query for updates against the CodePush server, you can begin releasing updates to it. In order to provide both simplicity and flexibility, the CodePush CLI includes two different commands for releasing updates:
-1. [General](#releasing-updates-general) - Releases an update to the CodePush server that was generated by an external tool or build script (e.g. a Gulp task, the `react-native bundle` command). This provides the most flexibility in terms of fitting into existing workflows, since it strictly deals with CodePush-specific step, and leaves the app-specific compilation process to you.
-2. [React Native](#releasing-updates-react-native) - Performs the same functionality as the general release command, but also handles the task of generating the updated app contents for you (JS bundle and assets), instead of requiring you to run both `react-native bundle` and then `code-push-standalone release`.
-Which of these commands you should use is mostly a matter of requirements and/or preference. However, we generally recommend using the platform-specific command to start (since it greatly simplifies the experience), and then leverage the general-purpose `release` command if/when greater control is needed.
-### Releasing Updates (General)
-```
-code-push-standalone release <appName> <updateContents> <targetBinaryVersion>
-[--deploymentName <deploymentName>]
-[--description <description>]
-[--disabled <disabled>]
-[--mandatory]
-[--noDuplicateReleaseError]
-[--rollout <rolloutPercentage>]
+and the following command to replicate Production
+```shell
+revopush deployment add rn2_ios appcenter_Production -k xJeOl4A5No7c9-wJv8HLj1ktmmKeP5awD0us5u
 ```
-#### App name parameter
-This specifies the name of the CodePush app that this update is being released for. This value corresponds to the friendly name that you specified when originally calling `code-push-standalone app add` (e.g. "MyApp-Android"). If you need to look it up, you can run the `code-push-standalone app ls` command to see your list of apps.
-#### Update contents parameter
-This specifies the location of the updated app code and assets you want to release. You can provide either a single file (e.g. a JS bundle for a React Native app), or a path to a directory. Note that you don't need to ZIP up multiple files or directories in order to deploy those changes, since the CLI will automatically ZIP them for you.
-It's important that the path you specify refers to the platform-specific, prepared/bundled version of your app. The following table outlines which command you should run before releasing, as well as the location you can subsequently refer to using the `updateContents` parameter:
-| Platform                         | Prepare command                                                                                                                                            | Package path (relative to project root)                                                                                       |
-| -------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| React Native wo/assets (Android) | `react-native bundle --platform android --entry-file <entryFile> --bundle-output <bundleOutput> --dev false`                                               | Value of the `--bundle-output` option                                                                                         |
-| React Native w/assets (Android)  | `react-native bundle --platform android --entry-file <entryFile> --bundle-output <releaseFolder>/<bundleOutput> --assets-dest <releaseFolder> --dev false` | Value of the `--assets-dest` option, which should represent a newly created directory that includes your assets and JS bundle |
-| React Native wo/assets (iOS)     | `react-native bundle --platform ios --entry-file <entryFile> --bundle-output <bundleOutput> --dev false`                                                   | Value of the `--bundle-output` option                                                                                         |
-| React Native w/assets (iOS)      | `react-native bundle --platform ios --entry-file <entryFile> --bundle-output <releaseFolder>/<bundleOutput> --assets-dest <releaseFolder> --dev false`     | Value of the `--assets-dest` option, which should represent a newly created directory that includes your assets and JS bundle |
-#### Target binary version parameter
-This specifies the store/binary version of the application you are releasing the update for, so that only users running that version will receive the update, while users running an older and/or newer version of the app binary will not. This is useful for the following reasons:
-1. If a user is running an older binary version, it's possible that there are breaking changes in the CodePush update that wouldn't be compatible with what they're running.
-2. If a user is running a newer binary version, then it's presumed that what they are running is newer (and potentially incompatible) with the CodePush update.
-If you ever want an update to target multiple versions of the app store binary, we also allow you to specify the parameter as a [semver range expression](https://github.com/npm/node-semver#advanced-range-syntax). That way, any client device running a version of the binary that satisfies the range expression (i.e. `semver.satisfies(version, range)` returns `true`) will get the update. Examples of valid semver range expressions are as follows:
-| Range Expression | Who gets the update                                                                    |
-| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `1.2.3`          | Only devices running the specific binary app store version `1.2.3` of your app         |
-| `*`              | Any device configured to consume updates from your CodePush app                        |
-| `1.2.x`          | Devices running major version 1, minor version 2 and any patch version of your app     |
-| `1.2.3 - 1.2.7`  | Devices running any binary version between `1.2.3` (inclusive) and `1.2.7` (inclusive) |
-| `>=1.2.3 <1.2.7` | Devices running any binary version between `1.2.3` (inclusive) and `1.2.7` (exclusive) |
-| `~1.2.3`         | Equivalent to `>=1.2.3 <1.3.0`                                                         |
-| `^1.2.3`         | Equivalent to `>=1.2.3 <2.0.0`                                                         |
-_NOTE: If your semver expression starts with a special shell character or operator such as `>`, `^`, or \*\*
-_, the command may not execute correctly if you do not wrap the value in quotes as the shell will not supply the right values to our CLI process. Therefore, it is best to wrap your `targetBinaryVersion` parameter in double quotes when calling the `release` command, e.g. `code-push-standalone release MyApp-iOS updateContents ">1.2.3"`.\*
-_NOTE: As defined in the semver spec, ranges only work for non pre-release versions: https://github.com/npm/node-semver#prerelease-tags. If you want to update a version with pre-release tags, then you need to write the exact version you want to update (`1.2.3-beta` for example)._
-The following table outlines the version value that CodePush expects your update's semver range to satisfy for each respective app type:
-| Platform               | Source of app store version                                                  |
-| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| React Native (Android) | The `android.defaultConfig.versionName` property in your `build.gradle` file |
-| React Native (iOS)     | The `CFBundleShortVersionString` key in the `Info.plist` file                |
-| React Native (Windows) | The `<Identity Version>` key in the `Package.appxmanifest` file              |
-_NOTE: If the app store version in the metadata files are missing a patch version, e.g. `2.0`, it will be treated as having a patch version of `0`, i.e. `2.0 -> 2.0.0`._
-#### Deployment name parameter
-This specifies which deployment you want to release the update to. This defaults to `Staging`, but when you're ready to deploy to `Production`, or one of your own custom deployments, just explicitly set this argument.
-_NOTE: The parameter can be set using either "--deploymentName" or "-d"._
-#### Description parameter
-This provides an optional "change log" for the deployment. The value is simply round tripped to the client so that when the update is detected, your app can choose to display it to the end-user (e.g. via a "What's new?" dialog). This string accepts control characters such as `\n` and `\t` so that you can include whitespace formatting within your descriptions for improved readability.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either "--description" or "-des"_
-#### Disabled parameter
-This specifies whether an update should be downloadable by end users or not. If left unspecified, the update will not be disabled (i.e. users will download it the moment your app calls `sync`). This parameter can be valuable if you want to release an update that isn't immediately available, until you explicitly [patch it](#patching-releases) when you want end users to be able to download it (e.g. an announcement blog post went live).
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either "--disabled" or "-x"_
-#### Mandatory parameter
-This specifies whether the update should be considered mandatory or not (e.g. it includes a critical security fix). This attribute is simply round tripped to the client, who can then decide if and how they would like to enforce it.
-_NOTE: This parameter is simply a "flag", and therefore, its absence indicates that the release is optional, and its presence indicates that it's mandatory. You can provide a value to it (e.g. `--mandatory true`), however, simply specifying `--mandatory` is sufficient for marking a release as mandatory._
-The mandatory attribute is unique because the server will dynamically modify it as necessary in order to ensure that the semantics of your releases are maintained for your end-users. For example, imagine that you released the following three updates to your app:
-| Release | Mandatory? |
-| ------- | ---------- |
-| v1      | No         |
-| v2      | Yes        |
-| v3      | No         |
-If an end-user is currently running `v1`, and they query the server for an update, it will respond with `v3` (since that is the latest), but it will dynamically convert the release to mandatory, since a mandatory update was released in between. This behavior is important since the code contained in `v3` is incremental to that included in `v2`, and therefore, whatever made `v2` mandatory, continues to make `v3` mandatory for anyone that didn't already acquire `v2`.
-If an end-user is currently running `v2`, and they query the server for an update, it will respond with `v3`, but leave the release as optional. This is because they already received the mandatory update, and therefore, there isn't a need to modify the policy of `v3`. This behavior is why we say that the server will "dynamically convert" the mandatory flag, because as far as the release goes, its mandatory attribute will always be stored using the value you specified when releasing it. It is only changed on-the-fly as necessary when responding to an update check from an end-user.
-If you never release an update that is marked as mandatory, then the above behavior doesn't apply to you, since the server will never change an optional release to mandatory unless there were intermingled mandatory updates as illustrated above. Additionally, if a release is marked as mandatory, it will never be converted to optional, since that wouldn't make any sense. The server will only change an optional release to mandatory in order to respect the semantics described above.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either `--mandatory` or `-m`_
-#### No duplicate release error parameter
-This specifies that if the update is identical to the latest release on the deployment, the CLI should generate a warning instead of an error. This is useful for continuous integration scenarios where it is expected that small modifications may trigger releases where no production code has changed.
+where:
+- `rn2_ios` is the application name in Revopush
+- `appcenter_Staging` and `appcenter_Production` are the deployment names in Revopush (the same as in Appcenter but for sake of clarity we added `appcenter_` prefix)
+- `ZFZiSAKLUL_QmBXeWAcSkpv87fkaDeWu1W0TOs` is the deployment key for `Staging` in Appcenter
+- `xJeOl4A5No7c9-wJv8HLj1ktmmKeP5awD0us5u` is the deployment key for `Production` in Appcenter
-#### Rollout parameter
+Help tip:
+Until you switched your mobile application to use Revopush (more about this below) or during testing it's totally fine to delete the deployment in Revopush.
-**IMPORTANT: In order for this parameter to actually take affect, your end users need to be running version `1.9.0-beta+` (for React Native) of the CodePush plugin. If you release an update that specifies a rollout property, no end user running an older version of React Native plugins will be eligible for the update. Therefore, until you have adopted the neccessary version of the platform-specific CodePush plugin (as previously mentioned), we would advise not setting a rollout value on your releases, since no one would end up receiving it.**
+To delete deployment if you need run the following command:
-This specifies the percentage of users (as an integer between `1` and `100`) that should be eligible to receive this update. It can be helpful if you want to "flight" new releases with a portion of your audience (e.g. 25%), and get feedback and/or watch for exceptions/crashes, before making it broadly available for everyone. If this parameter isn't set, it is set to `100%`, and therefore, you only need to set it if you want to actually limit how many users will receive it.
-When leveraging the rollout capability, there are a few additional considerations to keep in mind:
-1. You cannot release a new update to a deployment whose latest release is an "active" rollout (i.e. its rollout property is non-null). The rollout needs to be "completed" (i.e. setting the `rollout` property to `100`) before you can release further updates to the deployment.
-2. If you rollback a deployment whose latest release is an "active" rollout, the rollout value will be cleared, effectively "deactivating" the rollout behavior
-3. Unlike the `mandatory` and `description` fields, when you promote a release from one deployment to another, it will not propagate the `rollout` property, and therefore, if you want the new release (in the target deployment) to have a rollout value, you need to explicitly set it when you call the `promote` command.
+```shell
+revopush deployment rm rn2_ios appcenter_Staging
+````
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either `--rollout` or `-r`_
+#### Android
-### Releasing Updates (React Native)
+For Android app steps are very similar except different app name. List deployments in Appcenter:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone release-react <appName> <platform>
-[--bundleName <bundleName>]
-[--deploymentName <deploymentName>]
-[--description <description>]
-[--development <development>]
-[--disabled <disabled>]

-[--xcodeTargetName <xcodeTargetName>]
-[--buildConfigurationName <buildConfigurationName>]
+appcenter codepush deployment list -k -a johndoe/rn2_android
 ```
-The `release-react` command is a React Native-specific version of the "vanilla" [`release`](#releasing-app-updates) command, which supports all of the same parameters (e.g. `--mandatory`, `--description`), yet simplifies the process of releasing updates by performing the following additional behavior:
-1. Running the `react-native bundle` command in order to generate the [update contents](#update-contents-parameter) (JS bundle and assets) that will be released to the CodePush server. It uses sensible defaults as much as possible (e.g. creating a non-dev build, assuming an iOS entry file is named `index.ios.js`), but also exposes the relevant `react-native bundle` parameters to enable flexibility (e.g. `--sourcemapOutput`).
-2. Inferring the [`targetBinaryVersion`](#target-binary-version-parameter) of this release by using the version name that is specified in your project's `Info.plist` (for iOS) and `build.gradle` (for Android) files.
-To illustrate the difference that the `release-react` command can make, the following is an example of how you might generate and release an update for a React Native app using the "vanilla" `release` command:
+with output like this:
 ```shell
-mkdir ./CodePush
-react-native bundle --platform ios \
---entry-file index.ios.js \
---bundle-output ./CodePush/main.jsbundle \
---assets-dest ./CodePush \
---dev false
-code-push-standalone release MyApp-iOS ./CodePush 1.0.0

 ```
-Achieving the equivalent behavior with the `release-react` command would simply require the following command, which is generally less error-prone:
+Add Revopush Android Staging deployment
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-iOS ios
+revopush deployment add rn2_android appcenter_Staging -k 4tK3WlLhumcwaukx68Irq04XqS_3R4H6N-lV-z
 ```
-#### App name parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#app-name-parameter).
+Add Revopush Android Production deployment
-#### Platform parameter
-This specifies which platform the current update is targeting, and can be either `android`, `ios` or `windows` (case-insensitive). This value is only used to determine how to properly bundle your update contents and isn't actually sent to the server.
-#### Deployment name parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#deployment-name-parameter).
-#### Description parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#description-parameter).
-#### Mandatory parameter
+```shell
+revopush deployment add rn2_android appcenter_Production -k PQPwJaW63MTPI8T__u168qJm7Vq7Mn0UJ94MMR
+```
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#mandatory-parameter).
+where:
+- `rn2_android` is the application name in Revopush
+- `appcenter_Staging` and `appcenter_Production` are the deployment names in Revopush (the same as in Appcenter but for sake of clarity we added `appcenter_` prefix)
+- `4tK3WlLhumcwaukx68Irq04XqS_3R4H6N-lV-z` is the deployment key for `Staging` in Appcenter
+- `PQPwJaW63MTPI8T__u168qJm7Vq7Mn0UJ94MMR` is the deployment key for `Production` in Appcenter
-#### No duplicate release error parameter
+Repeat for all other deployment you have in Appcenter and wish to continue to use in Revopush.
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#no-duplicate-release-error-parameter).
+## 4. Create Application and Deployments in Revopush
-#### Rollout parameter
+You need to execute steps in this section if you start from scratch and wish to apply OTA on top of Revopush for your app.
+People who migrate from Appcenter to Revopush can skip this section (we have done all what we need in previous sections)
+and go to section 5.
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#rollout-parameter). If left unspecified, the release will be made available to all users.
+It empowers you to use the best practices of [Multi-Deployment Testing](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/appcenter/distribution/codepush/rn-deployment)
+and have isolated app for iOS and Android each with few Deployments (at least `Staging` and `Production`).
-#### Target binary version parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#target-binary-version-parameter). If left unspecified, this defaults to targeting the exact version specified in the app's `Info.plist` (for iOS) and `build.gradle` (for Android) files.
+### 4.1 Login to Revopush CLI
-#### Bundle name parameter
+Execute the following command to login to Revopush CLI using provider of your choice (GitHub, Google):
-This specifies the file name that should be used for the generated JS bundle. If left unspecified, the standard bundle name will be used for the specified platform: `main.jsbundle` (iOS), `index.android.bundle` (Android) and `index.windows.bundle` (Windows).
+```shell
+  revopush login
+```
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --bundleName or -b_
+### 4.2 Create applications in Revopush
-#### Development parameter
+Revopush does not specify the target platform of the application at the moment of creation.
+To later easy manage them we suggest to give them meaningful names which will contain platform as a part of it.
-This specifies whether to generate a unminified, development JS bundle. If left unspecified, this defaults to `false` where warnings are disabled and the bundle is minified.
+#### iOS
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --development or --dev_
+```shell
+revopush app add myAmazingApp_ios
+```
-#### Disabled parameter

+### 4.3 Create deployments in Revopush
-#### Gradle file parameter (Android only)
+In addition to two deployments we create out of the box you may need to have more for your application (eg for development, testing).
-This specifies the relative path to the `build.gradle` file that the CLI should use when attempting to auto-detect the target binary version for the release. This parameter is only meant for advanced scenarios, since the CLI will automatically be able to find your `build.grade` file in "standard" React Native projects. However, if your gradle file is located in an arbitrary location, that the CLI can't discover, then using this parameter allows you to continue releasing CodePush updates, without needing to explicitly set the `--targetBinaryVersion` parameter. Since `build.gradle` is a required file name, specifying the path to the containing folder or the full path to the file itself will both achieve the same effect.
+The following command will create a new deployment for the application you have created:
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-Android android -p "./foo/bar/"
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-Android android -p "./foo/bar/build.gradle"
+revopush deployment add myAmazingApp_android Development
 ```
-#### Plist file parameter (iOS only)
-This specifies the relative path to the `Info.plist` file that the CLI should use when attempting to auto-detect the target binary version for the release. This parameter is only meant for advanced scenarios, since the CLI will automatically be able to find your `Info.plist` file in "standard" React Native projects, and you can use the `--plistFilePrefix` parameter in order to support per-environment plist files (e.g. `STAGING-Info.plist`). However, if your plist is located in an arbitrary location, that the CLI can't discover, then using this parameter allows you to continue releasing CodePush updates, without needing to explicitly set the `--targetBinaryVersion` parameter.
+with response like
 ```shell
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-iOS ios -p "./foo/bar/MyFile.plist"
+Successfully added the "Development" deployment with key "7Eh9BWf9FIr4_d33ay_oj4zeVoYqVJHvdy5W-g" to the "myAmazingApp_android" app.
 ```
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --plistFile or -p_
-#### Plist file prefix parameter (iOS only)
-This specifies the file name prefix of the `Info.plist` file that that CLI should use when attempting to auto-detect the target binary version for the release. This can be useful if you've created per-environment plist files (e.g. `DEV-Info.plist`, `STAGING-Info.plist`), and you want to be able to release CodePush updates without needing to explicitly set the `--targetBinaryVersion` parameter. By specifying a `--plistFilePrefx`, the CLI will look for a file named `<prefix>-Info.plist`, instead of simply `Info.plist` (which is the default behavior), in the following locations: `./ios` and `./ios/<appName>`. If your plist file isn't located in either of those directories (e.g. your app is a native iOS app with embedded RN views), or uses an entirely different file naming convention, then consider using the `--plistFile` parameter.
+To list all the deployments with their keys for the application run the following command:
 ```shell
-# Auto-detect the target binary version of this release by looking up the
-# app version within the STAGING-Info.plist file in either the ./ios or ./ios/<APP> directories.
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-iOS ios --pre "STAGING"
-# Tell the CLI to use your dev plist (`DEV-Info.plist`).
-# Note that the hyphen separator can be explicitly stated.
-code-push-standalone release-react MyApp-iOS ios --pre "DEV-"
+revopush deployment ls myAmazingApp_android -k
 ```
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --plistFilePrefix or --pre_
-#### Sourcemap output parameter
-This specifies the relative path to where the generated JS bundle's sourcemap file should be written. If left unspecified, sourcemaps will not be generated.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --sourcemapOutput or -s_
-#### Output directory parameter
-This specifies the relative path to where the assets, JS bundle and sourcemap files should be written. If left unspecified, the assets, JS bundle and sourcemap will be copied to the `/tmp/CodePush` folder.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --outputDir or -o_
-#### Use Hermes parameter
-This parameter enforces the use of the Hermes compiler. If not specified, the automatic checks will be performed, inspecting the `build.gradle` and `Podfile` for the Hermes flag.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --hermesEnabled or -h_
-#### Podfile parameter (iOS only)
-The Podfile path will be used for Hermes automatic check. Not used if `--useHermes` is specified.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --podfile or -pod_
-#### Extra hermes flags parameter
-Hermes flags which will be passed to Hermes compiler.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --extraHermesFlags or -hf_
-#### Private key path parameter
+which will display something like this:
-Private key path which is used for code signing.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --privateKeyPath or -k_
-#### Xcode project file parameter
-Path to the Xcode project or project.pbxproj file.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --xcodeProjectFile or -xp_
-#### Xcode target name parameter
-Name of target (PBXNativeTarget) which specifies the binary version you want to target this release at (iOS only).
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --xcodeTargetName or -xt_

-#### Build configuration name parameter
+## 5. Migrate your React Native application to Revopush OTA
-Name of build configuration which specifies the binary version you want to target this release at. For example, 'Debug' or 'Release' (iOS only).
+The way how check for updates happens (eg on every app start, or fine-grained control involving user)
+as well as when bundle is installed (eg immediately, on next restart or on next resume) heavy depends on
+your application requirements and used version of React Native and CodePush plugin.
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either --buildConfigurationName or -c_
+Please refer to official documentation of [react-native-code-push](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/tree/master?tab=readme-ov-file#plugin-usage)
+plugin to find an approach which will fit your needs.
-## Debugging CodePush Integration
+At this point we assume you have already applied CodePush plugin on React side and completed setup of native modules
+( [iOS](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/blob/master/docs/setup-ios.md),
+[Android](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/blob/master/docs/setup-android.md))
-Once you've released an update, React Native plugin has been integrated into your app, it can be helpful to diagnose how the plugin is behaving, especially if you run into an issue and want to understand why. In order to debug the CodePush update discovery experience, you can run the following command in order to easily view the diagnostic logs produced by the CodePush plugin within your app:
+Below are steps to be done for iOS and Android to switch CodePush server location from Appcenter to Revopush.
-```shell
-code-push-standalone debug <platform>
+### 5.1 Update CodePush server URL for iOS
-# View all CodePush logs from a running
-# instace of the iOS simulator.
-code-push-standalone debug ios
+Open your app's `Info.plist` file and add a new entry named `CodePushServerURL` whose value is the URL of the Revopush API server.
-# View all CodePush logs from a running
-# Android emulator or attached device.
-code-push-standalone debug android
+```xml
+<key>CodePushServerURL</key>
+<string>https://api.revopush.org</string>
 ```
-<img width="500" src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/116461/16246597/bd49a9ac-37ba-11e6-9aa4-a2d3b2821a90.png" />
+Also be sure you do have an entry named `CodePushDeploymentKey` whose value is the key of the deployment you want to configure this app against
+(see section above how to get Deployment Key ).
-Under the covers, this command simply automates the usage of the iOS system logs and ADB logcat, but provides a platform-agnostic, filtered view of all logs coming from the CodePush plugin. This way, you don't need to learn and/or use another tool simply to be able to answer basic questions about how CodePush is behaving.
-_NOTE: The debug command supports both emulators and devices for Android, but currently only supports listening to logs from the iOS simulator. We hope to add device support soon._
-## Patching Update Metadata
+```xml
+<key>CodePushDeploymentKey</key>
+<string>vUOFPtZfOlhXHPEDE3nkf7nP6lJ4VJHvdy5W-g</string>
+```
-After releasing an update, there may be scenarios where you need to modify one or more of the metadata attributes associated with it (e.g. you forgot to mark a critical bug fix as mandatory, you want to increase the rollout percentage of an update). You can easily do this by running the following command:
+As result for our `myAmazingApp_ios` app and `Staging` deployment `Info.plist` section related to CodePush will look like this:
-```shell
-code-push-standalone patch <appName> <deploymentName>
-[--label <releaseLabel>]
-[--mandatory <isMandatory>]
-[--description <description>]
-[--rollout <rolloutPercentage>]
-[--disabled <isDisabled>]
-[--targetBinaryVersion <targetBinaryVersion>]
+```xml
+<key>CodePushDeploymentKey</key>
+<string>vUOFPtZfOlhXHPEDE3nkf7nP6lJ4VJHvdy5W-g</string>
+<key>CodePushServerURL</key>
+<string>https://api.revopush.org</string>
 ```
-_NOTE: This command doesn't allow modifying the actual update contents of a release. If you need to respond to a release that has been identified as being broken, you should use the [rollback](#rolling-back-updates) command to immediately roll it back, and then if necessary, release a new update with the approrpriate fix when it is available._
+_Note: If you need to dynamically use a different deployment, you can also override your deployment key in JS code using
+[Code-Push options](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/blob/master/docs/api-js.md#CodePushOptions)_
-Aside from the `appName` and `deploymentName`, all parameters are optional, and therefore, you can use this command to update just a single attribute or all of them at once. Calling the `patch` command without specifying any attribute flag will result in a no-op.
+### 5.2 Update CodePush server URL for Android
-```shell
-# Mark the latest production release as mandatory
-code-push-standalone patch MyApp-iOS Production -m
+Open your app's `strings.xml` file and add a new entry named `CodePushServerUrl` whose value is the URL of the Revopush API server.
-# Increase the rollout for v23 to 50%
-code-push-standalone patch MyApp-iOS Production -l v23 -rollout 50%
+```xml
+<string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushServerUrl">https://api.revopush.org</string>
 ```
-### Label parameter
-Indicates which release (e.g. `v23`) you want to update within the specified deployment. If ommitted, the requested changes will be applied to the latest release in the specified deployment. In order to look up the label for the release you want to update, you can run the `code-push-standalone deployment history` command and refer to the `Label` column.
+Also be sure you do have an entry named `CodePushDeploymentKey` whose value is the key of the deployment you want to configure this app against
+(see section above how to get Deployment Key ).
-_NOTE: This parameter can be set using either `--label` or `-l`_
-### Mandatory parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#mandatory-parameter), and simply allows you to update whether the release should be considered mandatory or not. Note that `--mandatory` and `--mandatory true` are equivalent, but the absence of this flag is not equivalent to `--mandatory false`. Therefore, if the parameter is ommitted, no change will be made to the value of the target release's mandatory property. You need to set this to `--mandatory false` to explicitly make a release optional.
+```xml
+<string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushDeploymentKey">kbAXqSrgEfLPcuvU3Fe0SCqX5HpOVJHvdy5W-g</string>
+```
-### Description parameter
+As result for our `myAmazingApp_android` app and `Staging` deployment `strings.xml` section related to CodePush will look like this:
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#description-parameter), and simply allows you to update the description associated with the release (e.g. you made a typo when releasing, or you forgot to add a description at all). If this parameter is ommitted, no change will be made to the value of the target release's description property.
+```xml
+<string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushDeploymentKey">kbAXqSrgEfLPcuvU3Fe0SCqX5HpOVJHvdy5W-g</string>
+<string moduleConfig="true" name="CodePushServerUrl">https://api.revopush.org</string>
+```
-### Disabled parameter
+_Note: If you need to dynamically use a different deployment, you can also override your deployment key in JS code using
+[Code-Push options](https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-code-push/blob/master/docs/api-js.md#CodePushOptions)_
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#disabled-parameter), and simply allows you to update whether the release should be disabled or not. Note that `--disabled` and `--disabled true` are equivalent, but the absence of this flag is not equivalent to `--disabled false`. Therefore, if the parameter is ommitted, no change will be made to the value of the target release's disabled property. You need to set this to `--disabled false` to explicitly make a release acquirable if it was previously disabled.
-### Rollout parameter
+## 6. Release updates
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#rollout-parameter), and simply allows you to increase the rollout percentage of the target release. This parameter can only be set to an integer whose value is greater than the current rollout value. Additionally, if you want to "complete" the rollout, and therefore, make the release available to everyone, you can simply set this parameter to `--rollout 100`. If this parameter is ommitted, no change will be made to the value of the target release's rollout parameter.
+Once your app is configured and distributed to your users, and you have made some JS or asset changes, it's time to release them.
-Additionally, as mentioned above, when you release an update without a rollout value, it is treated equivalently to setting the rollout to `100`. Therefore, if you released an update without a rollout, you cannot change the rollout property of it via the `patch` command since that would be considered lowering the rollout percentage.
+Note: For Appcenter users most of the commands in Revopush CLI will look familiar or even identical. For your convenience we will show you
+how to release updates for both platforms so you would adjust your scripts, CI/CD pipelines, etc if any.
-### Target binary version parameter
+### 6.1 Release updates for iOS
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#target-binary-version-parameter), and simply allows you to update the semver range that indicates which binary version(s) a release is compatible with. This can be useful if you made a mistake when originally releasing an update (e.g. you specified `1.0.0` but meant `1.1.0`) or you want to increase or decrease the version range that a release supports (e.g. you discovered that a release doesn't work with `1.1.2` after all). If this parameter is ommitted, no change will be made to the value of the target release's version property.
+To push a bundle for iOS to the `Staging` deployment of the `rn2_ios` app, run the following command:
 ```shell
-# Add a "max binary version" to an existing release
-# by scoping its eligibility to users running >= 1.0.5
-code-push-standalone patch MyApp-iOS Staging -t "1.0.0 - 1.0.5"
-```
-## Promoting Updates
-Once you've tested an update against a specific deployment (e.g. `Staging`), and you want to promote it "downstream" (e.g. dev->staging, staging->production), you can simply use the following command to copy the release from one deployment to another:
-```
-code-push-standalone promote <appName> <sourceDeploymentName> <destDeploymentName>
-[--description <description>]
-[--label <label>]
-[--disabled <disabled>]
-[--mandatory]
-[--noDuplicateReleaseError]
-[--rollout <rolloutPercentage>]
-[--targetBinaryVersion <targetBinaryVersion]
+revopush release-react rn2_ios ios -d Staging
 ```
-The `promote` command will create a new release for the destination deployment, which includes the **exact code and metadata** (description, mandatory and target binary version) from the latest release of the source deployment. While you could use the `release` command to "manually" migrate an update from one environment to another, the `promote` command has the following benefits:
+Under the hood, this command will run `react-native bundle` command to create a bundle and assets,
+then upload them to Revopush server and release the update to the `Staging` deployment of the `rn2_ios` app.
-1. It's quicker, since you don't need to reassemble the release assets you want to publish or remember the description/app store version that are associated with the source deployment's release.
+Upon successful release, you will see something like this:
-2. It's less error-prone, since the promote operation ensures that the exact thing that you already tested in the source deployment (e.g. `Staging`) will become active in the destination deployment (e.g. `Production`).
-We recommend that all users take advantage of the automatically created `Staging` and `Production` environments, and do all releases directly to `Staging`, and then perform a `promote` from `Staging` to `Production` after performing the appropriate testing.
-### Description parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#description-parameter), and simply allows you to override the description that will be used for the promoted release. If unspecified, the new release will inherit the description from the release being promoted.
-### Label parameter
-This optional parameter allows you to pick the specified label from the source deployment and promote it to the destination deployment. If unspecified, the latest release on the source deployment will be promoted.
-### Disabled parameter
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#disabled-parameter), and simply allows you to override the value of the disabled flag that will be used for the promoted release. If unspecified, the new release will inherit the disabled property from the release being promoted.
+```shell
+Detecting ios app version:
-### Mandatory parameter
+Using the target binary version value "0.0.1" from "ios/rn2/Info.plist".
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#mandatory-parameter), and simply allows you to override the mandatory flag that will be used for the promoted release. If unspecified, the new release will inherit the mandatory property from the release being promoted.
+Running "react-native bundle" command:
-### No duplicate release error parameter

+private key was not provided
-### Rollout parameter
+Releasing update contents to CodePush:
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#rollout-parameter), and allows you to specify whether the newly created release should only be made available to a portion of your users. Unlike the other release metadata parameters (e.g. `description`), the `rollout` of a release is not carried over/inherited as part of a promote, and therefore, you need to explicitly set this if you don't want the newly created release to be available to all of your users.
+Upload progress:[==================================================] 100% 0.0s
+Successfully released an update containing the "/var/folders/my/lwrczz7503g5911_wf51jsvm0000gp/T/CodePush" directory to the "Staging" deployment of the "rn2_ios" app.
+```
-### Target binary version parameter
+where:
+- `rn2_ios` is the application name in Revopush
+- `Staging` is the deployment name in Revopush
+- `ios` is the target platform
-This is the same parameter as the one described in the [above section](#target-binary-version-parameter), and simply allows you to override the target binary version that will be used for the promoted release. If unspecified, the new release will inherit the target binary version property from the release being promoted.
+The entire list of available options such as bundle name, entry file, whether this release should be considered mandatory,
+rercentage of users this release should be immediately available to and many others for the `release-react` command can be found in CLI
 ```shell
-# Promote the release to production and make it
-# available to all versions using that deployment
-code-push-standalone promote MyApp-iOS Staging Production -t "*"
+revopush release-react -h
 ```
-## Rolling Back Updates
+### 6.2 Release updates for Android
-A deployment's release history is immutable, so you cannot delete or remove an update once it has been released. However, if you release an update that is broken or contains unintended features, it is easy to roll it back using the `rollback` command:
+To push a bundle for Android to the `appcenter-Staging` deployment of the `rn2_android` app, run the following command:
+```shell
+revopush release-react rn2_android android -d appcenter-Staging
 ```
-code-push-standalone rollback <appName> <deploymentName>
-code-push-standalone rollback MyApp-iOS Production
-```
-This has the effect of creating a new release for the deployment that includes the **exact same code and metadata** as the version prior to the latest one. For example, imagine that you released the following updates to your app:
-| Release | Description       | Mandatory |
-| ------- | ----------------- | --------- |
-| v1      | Initial release!  | Yes       |
-| v2      | Added new feature | No        |
-| v3      | Bug fixes         | Yes       |
-If you ran the `rollback` command on that deployment, a new release (`v4`) would be created that included the contents of the `v2` release.
+Under the hood, this command will run `react-native bundle` command to create a bundle and assets, then upload them to Revopush server and release the update to the `Staging` deployment of the `rn2_android` app.
-| Release                     | Description       | Mandatory |
-| --------------------------- | ----------------- | --------- |
-| v1                          | Initial release!  | Yes       |
-| v2                          | Added new feature | No        |
-| v3                          | Bug fixes         | Yes       |
-| v4 (Rollback from v3 to v2) | Added new feature | No        |
+Upon successful release, you will see something like this:
-End-users that had already acquired `v3` would now be "moved back" to `v2` when the app performs an update check. Additionally, any users that were still running `v2`, and therefore, had never acquired `v3`, wouldn't receive an update since they are already running the latest release (this is why our update check uses the package hash in addition to the release label).
+```shell
+Detecting android app version:
-If you would like to rollback a deployment to a release other than the previous (e.g. `v3` -> `v2`), you can specify the optional `--targetRelease` parameter:
+Using the target binary version value "1.0" from "android/app/build.gradle".
-```
-code-push-standalone rollback MyApp-iOS Production --targetRelease v34
-```
+Running "react-native bundle" command:
-_NOTE: The release produced by a rollback will be annotated in the output of the `deployment history` command to help identify them more easily._
+node node_modules/react-native/cli.js bundle --assets-dest /var/folders/my/lwrczz7503g5911_wf51jsvm0000gp/T/CodePush --bundle-output /var/folders/my/lwrczz7503g5911_wf51jsvm0000gp/T/CodePush/index.android.bundle --dev false --entry-file index.js --platform android

 ```
-code-push-standalone deployment history <appName> <deploymentName>
-```
-The history will display all attributes about each release (e.g. label, mandatory) as well as indicate if any releases were made due to a promotion or a rollback operation.
-![Deployment History](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/696206/11605068/14e440d0-9aab-11e5-8837-69ab09bfb66c.PNG)
-Additionally, the history displays the install metrics for each release. You can view the details about how to interpret the metric data in the documentation for the `deployment ls` command above.
+where:
+- `rn2_android` is the application name in Revopush
+- `appcenter-Staging` is the deployment name in Revopush
+- `android` is the target platform
-By default, the history doesn't display the author of each release, but if you are collaborating on an app with other developers, and want to view who released each update, you can pass the additional `--displayAuthor` (or `-a`) flag to the history command.
+The entire list of available options such as bundle name, entry file, whether this release should be considered mandatory,
+rercentage of users this release should be immediately available to and many others for the `release-react` command can be found in CLI
-_NOTE: The history command can also be run using the "h" alias_
+```shell

+```
-## Clearing Release History
+### 6.3 Release history
-You can clear the release history associated with a deployment using the following command:
+The release history for deployment of the app can be viewed in Revopush UI or if you prefer CLI by running the following command:
+```shell
+revopush deployment history rn2_ios Staging
 ```
-code-push-standalone deployment clear <appName> <deploymentName>
-```
-After running this command, client devices configured to receive updates using its associated deployment key will no longer receive the updates that have been cleared. This command is irreversible, and therefore should not be used in a production deployment.

+## 7. Summary
+At Revopush we tried to make the migration process as smooth as possible.
+For experienced developers who have been using Appcenter CLI for OTA updates,
+commands in Revopush CLI will look familiar or even identical.
+For your convenience we created a table with the most common commands you may need to use in Revopush CLI
+(with their analogs in Appcenter CLI):
+| Appcenter                        | Revopush               |                                                                     Comment                                                                      |
