CVE(1)

💖 CVE(1) — the cve manual, but make it make sense 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about cve — it's the CLI interface for the CVE Services API, and she is that girl. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

cve — a CLI interface for the CVE Services API. periodt. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

cve [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

like. that's the whole vibe. options, then a command, then whatever args that command wants. 🦋

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

A CLI interface for the CVE Services API. that's it, that's the description. she's concise, she's iconic, she's not gonna waste your time. ✨

---

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay so these are the global girlies — the flags that go before your command. read them carefully, some of them are literally required, no cap. 👑

• -u, --username TEXT — your username. you can also set it with the env var CVE_USER. this one is required, so don't skip her. 💀
• -o, --org TEXT — your CNA organization short name. env var: CVE_ORG. also required. yes bestie, you gotta say who you are. 🫶
• -a, --api-key TEXT — your API key. env var: CVE_API_KEY. required too. all three of the big ones are mandatory, it's giving "no entry without the whole trio". 🔑
• -e, --env [prod|dev|test] — pick which deployment environment you wanna query. env var: CVE_ENVIRONMENT. your choices are literally just prod, dev, or test. choose wisely, prod is not a drill. 🌈
• --api-url TEXT — throw in an arbitrary URL for the CVE API. env var: CVE_API_URL. for when you're feeling custom. ✨
• -i, --interactive — makes it confirm create/update actions before actually executing them. env var: CVE_INTERACTIVE. lowkey the responsible bestie option, protect yourself. 🛡️
• -V, --version — show the version and dip. bye! 👋
