datacontract edit
Edit a data contract file in the Data Contract Editor (web UI). Starts a local web server that opens the Data Contract Editor for the given file. The editor is bundled with the CLI, so no internet access is required. Saving in the editor writes directly back to the local file. If a URL is given, you are asked whether to download a local copy, which is then edited. The server also acts as the editor's test runner: "Run test" in the editor executes the data contract tests locally against the servers defined in the data contract. Credentials for the data sources must be provided as environment variables, see https://cli.datacontract.com/#test
