Description
Expected Behaviour
I'd like to be able to specify a local file on disk for the function store to test out definitions before publishing them on GitHub.
Current Behaviour
I can test any HTTP url via --url, but not a local file via a flag.
Why do you need this?
Better testing experience and contributing experience.
Which Solution Do You Recommend?
A new flag perhaps, or a url like file://. I think a flag fits better with the intuitive developer experience of a UNIX CLI.
Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)
git clone https://github.com/openfaas/store-functions && cd store-functionsfaas-cli store deploy --file ./functions.json- See an error

Research direction
Start by inspecting the faas-cli store deploy command and its existing --url handling. Determine how the command could accept the local ./functions.json path described in the issue, then verify that definitions from a local file can be tested before publishing them to GitHub.
