🎀 LXC.ALIAS.ADD — okay bestie, let's talk aliases 🎀

So this is a page from the LXD - Command line client manual (that's the manual name, iykyk — section (1), command line client vibes 💅). Pull up a chair, we're adding aliases today.

✨ NAME ✨

lxc-alias-add — the girlie that adds new aliases, no cap 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

lxc alias add   [flags]

That's it. That's the whole flex. ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Here's the tea, straight from the description section:

Add new aliases 🔥

Literally that's what it does. You want a new alias? Boom. Added. Main character energy. 👑

🦋 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🦋

Ok so these aren't even, like, her own flags — they're inherited from the parent commands, which is giving "borrowed the hoodie and never gave it back" energy. But they work, so we love them 💜

  • --debug[=false] — show all the debug messages 😭 (all of them. every last one. it's a lot.)
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket 🔌 like, no negotiation, local only
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help 🎀 the classic. the icon.
  • --project="" — override the source project`` 🌈 (yep, that's the text exactly as written, trailing backticks and all — don't come for me, I just report what the page says 💀)
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information 🤫 silence is golden
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use with help or --help to view sub-commands 🧚 so you can see the whole family tree
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages 🗣️ she talks. a lot. and we listen.
  • --version[=false] — print version number ⭐ gotta know what you're running
Every single one of these defaults to false, bestie. Write that down. 📝

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

The example section ate and left no crumbs:

  lxc alias add list "list -c ns46S"
      Overwrite the "list" command to pass -c ns46S.

So you're literally overwriting the list command so it always passes -c ns46S 🔥 iconic behavior honestly, that's how you make the tool work for you. 🫶
