  - _Describes where tableau-utilities has been installed_
- `tableau_utilities --help`
  - _Should populate a list of available commands_

### Module Usage

#### Sample

```python
from tableau_utilities import Datasource, TableauServer
from tableau_utilities import tableau_file_objects as tfo
from my_secrets import tableau_creds


def main():
    # The datasource identified by the ID
    datasource_id = 'abc123'

    # Create a Tableau Connection
    ts = TableauServer(**tableau_creds)
    # Download a Datasource
    datasource_path = ts.download_datasource(datasource_id=datasource_id)
    # Define a Datasource object from the datasource_path
    datasource = Datasource(datasource_path)
    # Define a new folder
    folder = tfo.Folder(name='Time Dimensions')
    # Define a new Column
    column = tfo.Column(
        name='Calculation_1',
        caption='Max Created Datetime',
        role='dimension',
        type='ordinal',
        datatype='datetime',
        desc='The maximum Created Datetime.',
        calculation='MAX([Created Datetime])'
    )
    # Add the new column to the new folder, as a folder-item
    folder_item = tfo.FolderItem(name=column.name)
    folder.folder_item.add(folder_item)
    # Add the column and folder to the datasource
    datasource.columns.add(column)
    datasource.folders_common.add(folder)
    # Enforce the Column, to update the Metadata
    datasource.enforce_column(column, remote_name='max_created_at')
    # Save changes to the Datasource
    datasource.save()
    # Publish & Overwrite the Datasource
    ts.publish_datasource(datasource_path, datasource_id=datasource_id)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

```

## CLI Usage

### Help
See the top level CLI arguments including the commands.
```commandline
tableau_utilities --help
```

See the help for a `command`.
Each command has arguments for a different grouping of actions.
```commandline

tableau_utilities  --settings_path my_settings.yaml server_info --list_object datasource --list_format names
```

Use environment variables
```commandline
tableau_utilities server_info --list_object datasource --list_format names
```

```commandline
op run --env-file=.env -- tableau_utilities server_info list_--list_object datasource --list_format names
```

### Examples for each command

#### server_info
Lists all datasources in your site ordered by ID
```commandline
tableau_utilities --token_name my_token_name --token_secret 1q2w3e4r5t6y7u8i9o --site mysitename --server 10az server_info --list_object datasource --list_format ids_names --list_sort_field id
```

#### server_operate
Download a datasource by name
```commandline
tableau_utilities --token_name my_token_name --token_secret 1q2w3e4r5t6y7u8i9o --site_name mysitename --server 10az --name 'My Awesome Datasource' --project_name 'My Fabulous Project' server_operate --download datasource
```

Publish Datasource with embedded connection credentials
```commandline
tableau_utilities -tn my_token_name -ts 1q2w3e4r5t6y7u8i9o -sn mysitename -s 10az -n 'My Awesome Datasource' -pn 'My Fabulous Project' --file_path '/Downloads/My Awesome Datasource.tdsx' --conn_user username --conn_pw abc123 server_operate --publish datasource
```
