Buf(1)

💅 Buf(1) — the manual, but make it group chat

ok so real talk: this is a page from the Buf manual (that's the (1) bit, bestie — section 1, general commands, iykyk ✨). And the specific page is all about buf-registry-sdk-version. Buckle up, it's a short one and honestly kinda iconic 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

buf-registry-sdk-version — literally resolves a module and plugin reference into one very specific Generated SDK version. That's the whole job. She's focused 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

buf registry sdk version --module= --plugin= [flags]

ok so that's the shape of it — you give her a module, you give her a plugin, and [flags] is where the extra options live 👑

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This command returns the version of the Generated SDK for the module and plugin you hand it. That's it. That's the whole personality. ✨

Here are the examples, no cap, exactly as they were given to me:

Get the version of the eliza module and the go plugin for use with the Go module proxy. (yes bestie, the Go module proxy — it's giving practical 💀💖)

$ buf registry sdk version --module=buf.build/connectrpc/eliza --plugin=buf.build/protocolbuffers/go
v1.33.0-20230913231627-233fca715f49.1

Use a specific module version and plugin version. (pinning BOTH sides, highkey meticulous of you 🫶)

$ buf registry sdk version --module=buf.build/connectrpc/eliza:233fca715f49425581ec0a1b660be886 --plugin=buf.build/protocolbuffers/go:v1.32.0
v1.32.0-20230913231627-233fca715f49.1

see how the output version picks up the plugin version you pinned? the vibes are immaculate, the facts are untouched 🌈

---

💜 OPTIONS 💜

• -h, --help[=false] — help for version. the classic. the icon. she explains herself 🎀
• --module="" — The module reference to resolve. default is the empty string, so actually pass it, bestie 😭
• --plugin="" — The plugin reference to resolve. also defaults to empty string. also actually pass it 🙈

fr fr, both of those default to "" — these flags want real values from you, they're not gonna guess 🫶

---

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

these ones are hand-me-downs from the parent command, and they still absolutely slay:

• --debug[=false] — Turn on debug logging (env BUF_DEBUG). defaults to false, flips on when you're in your detective era 🔍
• --log-format="color" — The log format text, color, json ⟨env BUF_LOG_FORMAT⟩. default is "color" because aesthetics matter 💅
• --timeout=0s — The duration until timing out, setting it to 0 means no timeout (env BUF_TIMEOUT). default is 0s, i.e. she will wait for you forever, main character energy ⏳💀

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• buf-registry-sdk(1) — the parent, the source, the one who raised her 🫶 go read that one too
