A qBraid CLI command has the following structure:
$ qbraid <command> <subcommand> [options and parameters]
For example, to list installed environments, the command would be:
$ qbraid envs list
To view help documentation, use one of the following:
$ qbraid --help
$ qbraid <command> --help
$ qbraid <command> <subcommand> --help
To get the version of the qBraid CLI:
$ qbraid --version
Magic Commands
You can also access the CLI directly from within Notebooks using IPython magic commands. First, configure the qBraid magic commands extension using:
$ qbraid configure magic
The above command can also be executed from within a Jupyter notebook using the ! operator. Then, from within a notebook cell, load the qBraid magic IPython extension using:
In [1]: %load_ext qbraid_magic
Now you can continue to use the qBraid-CLI as normal from within your Jupyter notebook using the magic % operator, e.g.
In [2]: %qbraid jobs list
Agent updates
Send yourself Slack or email updates and read Slack replies using existing qBraid credentials:
qbraid comms slack send "Tests passed" --json
qbraid comms email send --subject "Progress" --file report.txt --json
qbraid comms slack read --json
See communication commands for Slack connection, stdin input, message limits, and pagination.
