CLI
The Kurtosis CLI is the main way to interact with Kurtosis. This document will present some common CLI workflows.
The kurtosis command, and all of its subcommands, will print helptext when passed the -h flag. You can use this at any time to see information on the command you're trying to run. For example:
kurtosis service -h
Kurtosis supports tab-completion, and we strongly recommend installing it for the best experience!
Initialize configuration
When the Kurtosis CLI is executed for the first time on a machine, we ask you to make a choice about whether you'd like to send anonymized usage metrics to help us make the product better. To make this election non-interactively, you can run either:
kurtosis config init send-metrics
to send anonymized metrics to improve the product or
kurtosis config init dont-send-metrics
if you'd prefer not to.
Get the CLI version
The CLI version can be printed with the following:
