LXC.PROFILE(1)

💅 lxc-profile — a whole manual page, bestie

okay so real talk: this page lives in the LXD - Command line client(1) manual, and it's the glow-up guide for profiles. It's short, it's sweet, it's giving "I have one job and I do it." Let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME

lxc-profile — Manage profiles

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

lxc profile [flags]

that's it. that's the whole entrance. literally just the command plus whatever flags you're feeling 💅

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION

the description is, and I quote, exactly this iconic little line:

Description:
  Manage profiles

no notes. it manages profiles. main character energy, zero waffle 🦋

🧚 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS

these aren't even lxc-profile's own flags — they're inherited from the parent command, like a hand-me-down that's actually cute. every one is written with its default in brackets, so pay attention to those [=false] bits, okay?

• --debug[=false] — show all the debug messages. all of them. every last one. 🔍
• --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. local vibes only, no cap 🏠
• -h, --help[=false] — print help. the "wait what does this do again" button, we've all been there 🙈
• --project="" — override the source project. empty string by default, so it's just vibing until you give it something 💜
• -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. sometimes silence is the whole aesthetic 🤫
• --sub-commands[=false] — use this with help or --help to view sub-commands. it's a helper flag that helps the helper. meta, honestly ✨
• -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. talkative mode: activated 🗣️
• --version[=false] — print version number. the classic "who am I, where am I" check 📌

little heads-up bestie: those [=false] defaults are literally part of the option names as written here, so don't come for me about the brackets 😭
