CLI tool to manage packet.net services
Usage:
packet [flags]
packet [command]
Available Commands:
admin Manage projects, ssh keys, etc...
baremetal Manage server devices.
network Manage packet network services
storage Manage your storages
Flags:
-k, --key string API key

Use "packet [command] --help" for more information about a command.
Command syntax: packet admin add-profile
$ packet admin add-profile
Enter your API key [ *****y7wi ]: <APIKEY>
Enter your default project ID [ ]: <Project ID>
This command will add a profile named "default".
NOTE: Without your API key configured, you'll need to specify it in every command in the form: packet --key <APIKEY> <command> <subcommand> <flags>
. You can also optionnaly configure a default project ID.
If you have multiple accounts, or if you are working on multiple projects, you can set profiles to make it easy to switch between accounts or projects. After setting multiple profiles, you can use -p
or --profile
option to switch between accounts and projects.
Here I'm creating a new profile named ebsarr
$ packet admin add-profile -n ebsarr
Enter your API key [ *****y7wi ]: <APIKEY>
Enter your default project ID [ ]: <Project ID>
Without the -n
switch, the add-profile
command sets up a profile named "default". You can view your profiles with the list-profiles
command:
$ packet admin list-profiles
NAME APIKEY DEFAULT PROJECT
---- ------ ---------------
default XMiR---------------------------- 13935598-d08c-4bd8------------------
ebsarr XMiR---------------------------- e30d25da-728d-47fe------------------
Now I can switch easily between projects when running the packet
command:
$ packet -p ebsarr baremetal list-devices
[]
Without the -p
option, the default profile will be used:
$ packet baremetal list-devices
