circlecli 1.2.5

Unofficial CircleCI CLI tool

# CircleCLI

Unofficial CircleCI cross-platform CLI tool, written in Python.

   

**_Note: This project is currently in beta. There will be bugs._**

I wrote this tool because I realized there wasn't anything cross-platform, that you could easily use on Linux, OSX, or Windows (if you are one of the rare ones using Windows CLI anyway). Python comes pre-installed on most Linux distros, and OSX, so it should be easy to get up and running.

CircleCLI supports most of what the official API supports (new features are being added), and it also supports a little bit of what isn't supported by CircleCI just yet (adding multiple environment variables simultaneously, displaying concise response info, validating circle.yml files, checking status of CircleCI, etc).

See the [Examples](#examples) section for common types of usage.

## Installation
```
pip install circlecli
```

## Configuration
CircleCLI requires an API token from your CircleCI [Account Settings](https://circleci.com/account/api) page.
You may set this token as an environment variable named `CIRCLE_TOKEN` (good for scripting), or CircleCLI will interactively ask you for this token on first run if no configuration file is present.
If you let CircleCLI prompt you for info, then it will create a configuration file named `.circlecli.ini` in your user's home directory that looks like this:
```
[circlecli]
token = XXXXX
default_username = XXXXX
```
You can always edit your own values in this configuration file.

## Usage
```
usage: circlecli [--help] [--project PROJECT] [--username USERNAME]
[--build-num BUILD_NUM] [--config] [--quiet] [--set ENVVARS]
[--filter FILTERS] [--verbose]
[action] [help]

Execute CircleCI REST API commands from the CLI.

positional arguments:
action An action to perform (see below)
help Get help on a particular action

optional arguments:
--help, -h Display this help text
--project PROJECT, -p PROJECT
The target project name
--username USERNAME, -u USERNAME
The username of the project/repo owner
--build-num BUILD_NUM, -b BUILD_NUM
The target build number
--config, -c Only print saved configuration values
--quiet, -q Suppress output
--set ENVVARS, -s ENVVARS
Set a variable (used with 'env' action)
--filter FILTERS, -f FILTERS
Match only response objects matching filter
--verbose, -v Return original full output from CircleCI

available actions:
me Provide information about the signed in user.
projects List of all the projects you're following on CircleCI.
builds Last 30 build summaries for the account (or for a project).
artifacts List the artifacts produced by a given build.
retry Retry a given build.
cancel Cancel a given build.
clear-cache Clear the cache for a project.
env List or add environment variables for a project.
check Ensure a circle.yml file is valid according to CircleCI docs.
status Check CircleCI site status (http://status.circleci.com).
<cmd> help Display help text for a particular action
```
CircleCLI by default displays formatted, concise data for each action.
To display the original response from CircleCI, simply add `-v` to your command.
