💅 ARDUINO-CLI-SKETCH — like, the sketch commands bestie

okay so you're in the ARDUINO COMMAND LINE MANUAL, section 1, and this page is all about arduino-cli sketch ✨ the little parent command that holds all the sketch sub-stuff. Think of it as the group chat named "sketches" and all the actual messages are in the sub-chats 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

arduino-cli-sketch — Arduino CLI sketch commands. that's it, that's the name, she's simple and she serves 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

arduino-cli sketch [flags]

yes bestie, just the command and your flags. no cap 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Arduino CLI sketch commands. iconic behavior, honestly 💖

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for sketch. the classic "wait what does this do again" button, we love her 🙈

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

these ones come down from the parent command, like hand-me-downs but make it ✨glow up✨. they're all available here too:

  • --additional-urls=[] — Comma-separated list of additional URLs for the Boards Manager. yes comma-separated, don't be weird about it 💀
  • --config-dir="" — Sets the default data directory (Arduino CLI will look for configuration file in this directory).
  • --config-file="" — The custom config file (if not specified the default will be used).
  • --json[=false] — Print the output in JSON format. for the girlies who pipe things into jq 🌈
  • --log[=false] — Print the logs on the standard output.
  • --log-file="" — Path to the file where logs will be written.
  • --log-format="text" — The output format for the logs, can be: text, json
  • --log-level="info" — Messages with this level and above will be logged. Valid levels are: trace, debug, info, warn, error, fatal, panic
  • --no-color[=false] — Disable colored output. (sad, but some terminals just can't handle the rainbow, we respect it 🌈💔)
