Synology CLI

Unofficial wrapper over Synology API in Go.

Focus on administrative tasks.

• Tutorial for automatic SSL certificates on NAS

[!TIP] It does support creating tasks in Download Station using files (torrent, nzb, urls); though it uses undocumented API.

Supports:

• X86-64 and ARM builds
• Universal docker image (arm and amd64)
• As CLI and as library

Development notes

• Stable are only tags prefixed by v (ex: v0.1.4)

Installation

• Pre-built binaries from releases
• Docker (universal): ghcr.io/reddec/syno-cli:<release> ( see releases)
• From source (requires latest Go): go install github.com/reddec/syno-cli/cmd/syno-cli@latest

Usage

Each command supports --help option.
