💅 incus-start — Start instances 💅

okay bestie, grab your iced coffee because this is Incus - Command line client and we're talking about the glow-up button that makes your instances, like, exist. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

incus-start — start instances. yes that's it. that's the whole name. it starts instances. iconic behavior tbh 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

incus start ([:]...|--all [:...]) [flags]

so you either name the instances you want, or you say --all and go feral, and then you sprinkle flags on top. the vibes are immaculate.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Description:

Start instances 🦋

that's the tea. you point it at one or more instances and it starts them. main character energy fr fr.

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • -a, --all[=false] — run against all the instances. not one, not two, ALL of them. go big or go home 💅
  • --console[=""] — immediately attach to the console. like, no waiting, no chill, you're in there the second it starts 🖥️✨
  • --stateless[=false] — ignore the instance state. lowkey a little unhinged but okay, we respect it 🙈

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

these come from the parent command bestie, so they work here too. free real estate.

  • --debug[=false] — show ALL the debug messages. every single one. it's giving verbose but make it mysterious 🔍
  • --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of running it. so it just... tells you what you would have done. no notes, honestly 🤓
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. local only. no remote nonsense. stay in your lane 🏠
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. the classic. the beloved. when in doubt, ask for help 🫶
  • --project="" — override the source project. you're telling it which project to look at, periodt 🎯
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. shhh. quiet. library voice 🤫
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands. a little peek behind the curtain 👀
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. the yapper setting. we love a yapper 🗣️💬
  • --version[=false] — print version number. know your era. know your build. ⭐
