@differentialhq/cli v3.20.0

Differential.dev CLI

Installation

npm install -g @differentialhq/cli

Usage

Authenticating the CLI

To authenticate the CLI, run differential auth login. This will open a browser and prompt you to login to the management console.

Managing clusters

The differential clusters command contains subcommands for the management of clusters. These include:

• differential clusters create Create a new Differential cluster
• differential clusters list List Differential clusters aliases: ls
• differential clusters open Open a Differential cluster in the console
• differential clusters info Display information about a Differential cluster

Managing deployments

The differential deploy command contains subcommands for the management of Differential Cloud deployments. These include:

• differential deploy create Create a new Differential service deployment
• differential deploy list List Differential cloud deployments aliases: ls
• differential deploy info Display information about a Differential cloud deployment
• differential deploy logs Retrieve logs for a service deployment

Read Evaluate Print Loop (REPL)

differential repl will spawn an interactive NodeJS shell. This shell is authenticated with your cluster and can be used to issue calls against it's functions.

Managing the CLI context

The Differential CLI stores context in your project's directory. Context allows you to persist options which can be omitted from future use of the CLI.

Setting context

Context values are set with differential context set.

The following command will set a cluster value in the context:

differential context set --cluster=my-favourite-cluster

Future calls can now omit the --cluster option.

The context value can be unset by providing an empty option value.

differential context set --cluster

Named contexts

The CLI can maintain multiple named contexts for your project. This can be useful when working across multiple clusters, for example different environments.

To use a named context, provide the --context option with your command:

differential --context=staging repl

Local Development

All commands can be run with tsx:

tsx src/index.ts <cmd>
tsx src/index.ts auth login
