To provide a developer-friendly experience Rapyuta now offers a powerful command-line interface in addition to the existing Web UI. 

Why CLI ?

  • CLI is aware of the shell context. For example, it automatically imports Secrets like docker registry settings and GitHub credentials from your shell environment.
  • CLI allows you to write simple scripts to automate mundane tasks. For example:
    • CLIs additional benefit of context helps to automatically import secrets using the command:
      • rio secret import docker
    • CLIs help avoid the multi steps process of importing builds. It can be automatically imported using the command:
      • rio build import docker
    • CLI can also stream logs that the users can analyse using the various command line utilities.

Note: For advanced use cases, Rapyuta offers SDKs for scripting purposes.
