Commands

On the left is a command reference of all Cosmic CLI commands and their sub-commands.

Command help

Help for a specific subcommand is available by running cosmic-cli help <subcommand> or cosmic-cli <subcommand> -h.

Filtering results

Cosmic CLI commands are ran against all configured profiles, meaning sometimes you’ll get many results when you’re just looking for one or a few.

To filter a result use -f field=value, where field can be any table header and value is parsed as a regex for more flexible filtering. Sometimes you may need to use a --show command to show additional fields for filtering.

To filter results where the name field contains “vdi”:

-f name=vdi

When filtering for a value with spaces, put the filter in quotes:

-f 'name=vdi 2'

You can use multiple filters by calling -f multiple times:

-f name=vdi -f vpcofferingname=default

Or you can pass a list to -f:

-f name=vdi,vpcofferingname=default
