dow v1.8.2

##Digital Ocean Wrench

Complete CLI to the Digital Ocean API

###Installation

npm install -g dow

dow will look for a DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable. You can create one here, and surface it by adding the following to your .profile/.bash_profile/etc.:

export DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN="<your-access-token>"

If you really want, you can additionally pass your token via the --token flag (see special flags). Read here about how to keep such commands out of your history.

###Usage

For now, the tool will pretty much explain how to use it. (Methods map pretty simply to the official documentation.) Top-level lists categories:

$ dow

usage: dow <command>

where <command> is one of:

  actions
  domains
  domain-records
  droplets
  images
  ssh-keys
  regions
  sizes
  floating-ips

Categories list methods:

$ dow images

usage: dow images <method>

where <method> is one of:

list
get-by-id
get-by-slug
list-actions
update
delete
transfer
convert-to-snapshot
get-action

And methods explain themselves when misused:

$ dow images get-by-slug

usage: dow images get-by-slug <image-id>

or

$ dow droplet create

usage: dow droplets create 
  --name=<value> 
  --region=<value> 
  --size=<value> 
  --image=<value> 
  [--ssh_keys=<value-1>,<value-2>,...] 
  [--backups=<value>] 
  [--ipv6=<value>] 
  [--private_networking=<value>] 
  [--user_data=<value>]

Output tries to be common sense, but log is far from complete. You can use --raw to get just the JSON response. The JSON combined with a command-line JSON manipulator like json give you plenty of flexibility. See the cookbook for some examples.
