✨ NAME ✨

incus — the command line client for Incus 💖 (this is the incus(1) manual page bestie, buckle up)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

incus [flags]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Description:

Command line client for Incus

Okay so literally every single feature that Incus has? You can drive all of it through the various commands listed below. All of them. Every last one. 👑

And for help with any of those commands, you simply call them with --help. That's the whole trick, no cap. Type a command, slap a --help on it, and it spills its secrets. 🫶

Also!! You can define your own custom commands through aliases — use incus alias to control those. Make it yours, main character energy. 💅

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -a, --all[=false] — show the less common commands too, not just the basic ones. Unlock the whole menu bestie. ✨
  • --debug[=false] — show all debug messages. Every last crumb of output, it's giving unhinged transparency. 💀
  • --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, it explains its parsed arguments instead of running it. So it's like a lil preview of what you typed. No commit, just vibes. 🔍
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. Stay home, stay local. 🏠
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. Your bestie when you're lost. 🫶
  • --project="" — override the source project. (That's the literal description from the man page, quoted as-is: "Override the source project" 💜)
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. Silent mode. Shhh. 🤫
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use this alongside help or --help to view sub-commands. Peek behind the curtain. 🧚
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. Tell me everything, I want the whole tea. ☕🔥
  • --version[=false] — print the version number. Identity check. 👑
