Command Line Usage

In addition to interface usage, this project also provides a wealth of command line tools. It can realize model deployment, service deployment and start and stop, knowledge base operations (viewing, deleting, document loading), debugging and problem locating and other capabilities.

The following is a systematic introduction to the use of related command line tools.
