Environment Variables

Environment Management

Underneath each project, you can create multiple environments, it represents a version environment.

Examples are: staging, dev, production, sandbox, preview, etc.

Create a Environment

motiacloud environment create [options]

Options:

• -k, --api-key <api key>: API key for authentication (required)
• -n, --name <environment name>: The name for your version environment
• -d, --description <description>: Description of the version environment

Select a Environment

motiacloud environment select [options]

Options:

List Environments

motiacloud environment list [options]

Update Environment Version

You can promote a version to a environment, all traffic will be routed to the new version.

motiacloud environment update [options]

Options:

• -k, --api-key <api key>: API key for authentication (required)
• -v, --version <version>: The version to promote (required)

Version

Build Project

This is just to test the build process, it will not deploy anything.

motiacloud build

Deploy Project

This command builds the project and then deploys it to the selected environment. You need to specify a new version for the version.

Each version has unique version, specifying an existing version will fail.

motiacloud deploy [options]

Options:

• -k, --api-key <key>: The API key for authentication (required)
• -v, --version <version>: The version to deploy (required)

• -e, --env-file <path>: Path to environment file

Get Logs

Will list latest logs from the selected environment. This includes all versions deployed to the environment. You should see the version that generated the log on each log line. Details are not included by default, use the --include-details flag to include them.

motiacloud logs [options]

Options:

• -k, --api-key <key>: The API key for authentication (required)
• -s, --environment <environment>: The environment to get logs from
• -i, --include-details: Include details in the logs

Configuration

The CLI stores project configuration in a local config file. We recommend pushing this file to your version control system. This includes:

• Project ID
• Project name
• Project description
• Selected environment

Error Handling

The CLI provides detailed error messages and status updates during operations. If an error occurs:

1. The operation will be terminated
2. A descriptive error message will be displayed
3. The process will exit with a non-zero status code

Best Practices

1. Always use the --api-key option or set the MOTIA_API_KEY environment variable.
2. Select a environment before deploying.
3. Use semantic versioning for your versions.
4. Keep your environment files secure and never commit them to version control, make sure to add the file name to your .gitignore file.
