✨ ubuntu-report(3) 💖

okay bestie, so this is the manual page for ubuntu-report, sitting pretty in section 3 of the Ubuntu Report manual. yes the whole manual is literally named after it. main character energy fr. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

ubuntu-report — report metrics from your system, install and upgrades. that's the whole vibe. it looks at your machine and tells the nice server people what's up. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ubuntu-report [flags]

that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. flags are optional but we love options in this house. ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so here's the tea: this tool collects and reports metrics from your current hardware, partition and session info. the important part, and i need you to hear me on this: this information can't be used to identify a single machine. it cannot pick you out of a crowd. it's anonymous, periodt. 👑

and before anything gets sent anywhere, it gets presented to you first. you see it, then it goes to the server. no sneaky business, no lurking, we're not like that. 🫶

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -f, --force[=false] — collect and send a brand new report even if you've already reported before. yeah, i know you already did it. do it again anyway. slay. 🔥
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for ubuntu-report. your lil built-in bestie who tells you how everything works. 🙈
  • -u, --url="https://metrics.ubuntu.com" — the server url to send the report to. leave it empty and you get the default, which is the one right there. it's giving "trust the process". 🌈
  • -v, --verbose[=0] — issue INFO (-v) and DEBUG (-vv) output. one v for a little gossip, two vs for the full unhinged play-by-play. go off. 💀
ngl the little [=false] and [=0] bits are the defaults, and yes they are exactly that, i did not make them up, copy them character for character or don't come for me. 🍓
