CLI
The Reliably CLI is not a mandatory step to enjoy Reliably. Indeed, you can perform all activities through the Reliably Cloud dashboard directly.
The CLI is useful when your environment prohibits execution from the Reliably cloud.
In a nutshell, if you are only getting started, you can safely skip this guide.
Install
This guide explains the streamlined process of installing the Reliably CLI and taking the first steps to incorporate reliability feedback loop into your current workflow.
As a Python Package
The Reliably CLI is installed as a regular Python package. It requires Python 3.10+
Install it as follows:
python3 -m pip install --user reliably-cliThis will install the reliably binary in your $HOME/.local/bin directory.
To ensure that everything is working, you can use reliably version in a new
Powershell window:
reliably versionReliably CLI version x.x.xNow you’re all set to configure your CLI.
As a binary
Reliably is currently not available as standalone binaries. We are working on this and will hopefully offer binaries for all major platforms soon.
Configure
The Reliably CLI can be configured via a file, environment variables or a mix of both. In that case, environment variables override any configuration file entry.
Initialize new Configuration
You can initialize a configuration file as follows:
reliably config initThis will prompt for a valid token and will list organizations you belong to.
View current Configuration
You can view the current configuration:
reliably config viewYou can obtain the path to the configuration file with:
reliably config pathAuthenticate
When running the CLI requires to be authenticated with the [service] token
configuration entry or RELIABLY_SERVICE_TOKEN environment variable.
Using the environment variable overriddes the token stored into the configuration.
export RELIABLY_SERVICE_TOKEN=6ccfdxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
