======================
Command-line uploading
======================

Want to submit media via the command line?  It's fairly easy to do::

  ./bin/gmg addmedia username your_media.jpg

This will submit the file "your_media.jpg" to be a media entry
associated with the user "username".

You can get help on all the available options by running::

  ./bin/gmg addmedia --help

Here's a longer example that makes use of more options::

  ./bin/gmg addmedia aveyah awesome_spaceship.png \
      --title "My awesome spaceship" \
      --description "Flying my awesome spaceship, since I'm an awesome pilot" \
      --license "http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/" \
      --tags "spaceships, pilots, awesome" \
      --slug "awesome-spaceship"

You can also pass in the `--celery` option if you would prefer that
your media be passed over to celery to be processed rather than be
processed immediately.
