Installation

Download

You can download and install the CLI for any of the following platforms.

Supported Platform	Download (Latest)
Windows	Link
Linux	Link
macOS	Link

To download a specific version, visit the releases page.

Setup

Linux

Run the following commands in the directory to make the CLI accessible from your terminal:

mkdir ~/bin
mv phx-linux ~/bin/phx
echo "export PATH=\"\$PATH:\$HOME/bin\"" >> ~/.bashrc

Windows

To make the CLI accessible from your terminal, first create a folder called bin in your home directory, then open the environment variables settings by searching environment variables in the Start Menu and clicking on Edit the system environment variables and then clicking on Environment Variables.

In the opened window, find Path in the User variables list and double click on it. Then click on New to create a new entry in the list.

Paste the following line in the newly created entry:

%USERPROFILE%\bin

Lastly, click OK for all the opened windows.

macOS

Run the following commands to make the CLI accessible from your terminal:

mkdir ~/bin
mv phx-darwin ~/bin/phx
echo "export PATH=\"\$PATH:\$HOME/bin\"" >> ~/.zshrc

Usage

First you need to initialize Phoenix in your project directory:

phx init

This will create a .phoenix folder inside your project root directory.

Next you need to login to the Phoenix Platform by running this command and filling out your credentials in the prompts:

phx login

If you need to login with a static token, you can pass the --static flag to phx login:

phx login --static

As easily as that, now your project is ready for the cloud.

Running jobs

You can run a job:

phx run --cluster $CLUSTER_NAME --flavor $FLAVOR_NAME --name $YOUR_JOB_NAME $COMMAND $ARGS

Creating Jupyter Notebooks

You can also run a Jupyter Notebook on-demand and attach it to Google Colab as an external powerful non-interrupting runtime kernel:

phx jupyter create --cluster $CLUSTER_NAME --flavor $FLAVOR_NAME --name $YOUR_JUPYTER_INSTANCE_NAME
phx jupyter attach

Now, as long as your terminal is open, you can connect your Colab to this runtime using the "Connect to a local runtime" button in Colab interface.

You can read more about how to connect Colab to a local runtime here.
