flyctl

flyctl is a command-line interface for fly.io

Note: Most installations of flyctl also alias flyctl to fly as a command name and this will become the default name in the future. During the transition, note that where you see flyctl as a command it can be replaced with fly.

Getting Started

flyctl auth login

List your apps

flyctl apps list

flyctl status -a {app-name}

App Settings

flyctl will attempt to use the app name from a fly.toml file in the current directory. For example, if the current directory contains this file:

$ cat fly.toml
app: banana

flyctl will operate against the banana app unless overridden by the -a flag or other app name setting in the command line.

Building on Windows

There is a simple Powershell script, winbuild.ps1, which will run the code generation for the help files, format them, and run a full build, leaving a new binary in the bin directory.
