Cudo Compute has a CLI tool called cudoctl to manage all of your resources within the platform.

You will need to create an API key from the web UI before you can use cudoctl.

Getting Started

Run cudoctl init and follow the steps.

$ cudoctl init
✔ api key: my-api-key
✔ project: my-project
✔ billing account: my-billing-account
✔ context: default
config file saved ~/.config/cudo/cudo.yml

A config file will be maintained in $HOME/.config/cudo/cudo.yml

configVersion: v0
keys:
    - key: xxxyyyzzz
      name: my-first-api-key
    - key: aaabbbccc
      name: my-second-api-key
contexts:
    - name: cudo-demo
      key: my-first-api-key
      billing-account: xxxxxxxxx
      project: my-project
    - name: cudo-demo-2
      key: my-second-api-key
      billing-account: xxxxxxxxx
      project: my-other-project
current-context: cudo-demo

The file can be edited manually, and new contexts can be added using cudoctl init. Multiple contexts can be setup which are used like profiles when cudoctl runs. One context is selected at a time as the current context.

Show help at any level by using -h e.g cudoctl -h

Global Options

Global options are used to set top level options that affect the rest of the execution of cudoctl . See cudoctl -h for more details.

Examples

# choose a config file
$ cudoctl --config /etc/config/cudo.yaml <group> [command]

# set context with an environment variable
$ CUDOCTL_CONTEXT=local cudoctl <group> [command]

# output in json
$ cudoctl --json <group> [command]

Config

Show and set the current config context. See cudoctl config -h for more details.

Examples

$ cudoctl config current
local

$ cudoctl config use cudo-demo-2

$ cudoctl config current
cudo-demo-2

$ cudoctl config show
name: cudo-demo-2
key: my-second-api-key
billing-account: xxxxxxxxx
project: my-other-project

SSH Keys

See cudoctl ssh-keys -h for more details.

Initialise SSH key access to virtual machines

Using initialise is an interactive way to add an SSH key to your account.

You can choose a locally found key or chose another key.

$ cudoctl ssh-keys init
  Use the arrow keys to navigate: ↓ ↑
? Upload an SSH key:
  ▸ ssh-rsa SHA256:asd123 [email protected]
    other key
Added ssh-rsa key to your account

To use another key, you can enter a path to a key or paste a key directly into the terminal.

$ cudoctl ssh-keys init
✔ other key
Use the arrow keys to navigate: ↓ ↑ → ←
? Upload an SSH key:
  ▸ enter key file path
    enter key

Enter a key from a path

$ cudoctl ssh-keys init
✔ other key
✔ enter key file path
✔ file path: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
Added ssh-rsa key to your account

or paste a key directly into the terminal.

$ cudoctl ssh-keys init
✔ other key
✔ enter key
✔ key: SHA256:asd123 [email protected]
Added ssh-rsa key to your account

Add an SSH key

$ cudoctl ssh-keys add -file path/to/key.pub

List SSH keys

$ cudoctl ssh-keys add list
pageNumber: 1
pageSize: 10
sshKeys:
    - comment: [email protected]
      createTime: "2022-11-04T12:08:16.822678Z"
      fingerprint: SHA256:asd123

      publicKey: ssh-rsa asd123... [email protected]
      type: ssh-rsa
    ...

Delete an SSH key

$ cudoctl ssh-keys delete r8th1g7d1vc2

Search

List available OS images

List the available OS images. OS images define the initial state of the boot volume of virtual machines.

$ cudoctl search images
- description: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (focal)
  id: ubuntu-2004
  name: Ubuntu 20.04
  size: 2.4 GB
  ...

Find available virtual machines

Search for available compute resources. See cudoctl search -h to see filtering options.

Search available compute resources

$ cudoctl search
- machineType: sgwnzk4cp4bf

Projects

A project is a container for cloud resources. You need to create a project before you can create virtual machines. See cudoctl projects -h for more details.

Create a project

Help

Get help inside the CLI tool

$ cudoctl -h
usage: "cudoctl [global option...] <group> [group option...] [<cmd> [cmd option...]] [<sub cmd> [sub cmd option...]]"

Get started with "cudoctl init" to initialise a config interactively. Use "cudoctl config use <name>" to switch between config contexts.

basic groups:
  config                show and set the config context
  ssh-keys              manage ssh keys used to access VMs
  search                search for available compute resources
  virtual-machines      manage VM resources in a project

other groups:
  api-keys              manage long lived credentials that allow access to cudo
  auth                  manage permissions for projects, data centers and billing accounts you own
  billing-accounts      billing accounts group spend and earnings for projects and data centers
  data-centers          host resources are grouped into data centers for management
  projects              compute resources are grouped into projects for management

global options:
  -config string
        the path to a config file to use (env: CUDOCTL_CONFIG) (default "/Users/chris/.config/cudo/cudo.yml")
  -context string
        the name of a config context to use (env: CUDOCTL_CONTEXT)
  -json
        json output (env: CUDOCTL_JSON)
  -session string
        temporary authentication session token (env: CUDOCTL_SESSION)
  -verbose int
        output verbosity 0-2
  -version
        show the version of cudoctl

Use "cudoctl [group [command]] -h" for more information about a given group or command.
