CLI input example

Pushing Resources, Scripts & More

The CLI can push specifications to a windmill instance. See the examples/ folder for formats.

Switch to a different workspace

wmill workspace switch <workspace_name>

Sync a workspace

Pull

wmill sync pull

Push

wmill sync push

We recommend using the –yaml option to use yaml instead of json as the encoding format. Yaml will be made the default soon.

Pushing individual files

You can push individual resources using wmill <type> push <file_name> \<remote_name\>. This does not require a special folder layout or file name, as this is given at runtime.

Listing

All commands support listing by just not providing a subcommand, ie wmill script will result in a list of scripts. Some allow additional options, learn about this by specifying --help.

User Management

You can add & remove users via wmill user add/remove, and list them using wmill user

Pulling

You can pull the entire workspace using wmill pull
