Fastly CLI

A CLI for interacting with the Fastly platform.

Install

Download the latest release from the releases page. Unarchive the binary and place it in your $PATH. You can verify the integrity of the binary using the SHA256 checksums file fastly_x.x.x_SHA256SUMS provided alongside the release.

Verify it works by running fastly version.

$ fastly version
Fastly CLI version vX.Y.Z (abc0001)
Built with go version go1.13.1 linux/amd64

The Fastly CLI will notify you if a new version is available, and can update itself via fastly update.

Use

The Fastly CLI interacts with the Fastly API via an API token. You'll need to create an API token for yourself, and then provide it to the Fastly CLI in one of three ways:

  1. Stored in a config file by running fastly configure
  2. Explicitly via the --token, -t flag
  3. Implicitly via the FASTLY_API_TOKEN environment variable

To see an overview of all commands, simply run fastly with no arguments. Succinct help about any command or subcommand is available via the -h, --help flag. Verbose help about any command or subcommand is available via the help argument, e.g. fastly help service.

Developing

The Fastly CLI requires Go 1.13 or above. Clone this repo to any path and type make to run all of the tests and generate a development build locally.

git clone git@github.com:fastly/cli
cd cli
make
./fastly version
