# [Sourcegraph](https://sourcegraph.com) CLI [![Build Status](https://github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli/workflows/Go%20CI/badge.svg)](https://github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli/actions?query=workflow%3A%22Go+CI%22) [![Go Report Card](https://goreportcard.com/badge/sourcegraph/src-cli)](https://goreportcard.com/report/sourcegraph/src-cli)

`src` is a command line interface to Sourcegraph:

- **Search & get results in your terminal**
- **Search & get JSON** for programmatic consumption
- Make **GraphQL API requests** with auth easily & get JSON back fast
- Execute **[batch changes](https://docs.sourcegraph.com/batch_changes)**
- **Manage & administrate** repositories, users, and more
- **Easily convert src-CLI commands to equivalent curl commands**, just add --get-curl!

**Note:** Using Sourcegraph 3.12 or earlier? [See the older README](https://github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli/tree/3.11.2).

## Installation

Binary downloads are available on the [releases tab](https://github.com/sourcegraph/src-cli/releases), and through Sourcegraph.com. _If the latest version does not work for you,_ consider using the version compatible with your Sourcegraph instance instead.

### Installation: Mac OS

#### Latest version

```bash
curl -L https://sourcegraph.com/.api/src-cli/src_darwin_amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/src
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/src
```

or with Homebrew:

```bash
brew install sourcegraph/src-cli/src-cli
```

or with npm:

```bash
npm install -g @sourcegraph/src
```

#### Version compatible with your Sourcegraph instance

Replace `sourcegraph.example.com` with your Sourcegraph instance URL:

```bash
curl -L https://sourcegraph.example.com/.api/src-cli/src_darwin_amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/src
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/src
```

or, if you know the specific version to target, for example 3.43.2:

```bash
brew install sourcegraph/src-cli/[email protected]
```

or with npm/npx:

```bash
npx @sourcegraph/[email protected] version
```

> Note: Versioned formulas are available on Homebrew for Sourcegraph versions 3.43.2 and later.

### Installation: Linux

#### Latest version

```bash
curl -L https://sourcegraph.com/.api/src-cli/src_linux_amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/src
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/src
```

or with npm:

```bash
npm install -g @sourcegraph/src
```

#### Version compatible with your Sourcegraph instance

Replace `sourcegraph.example.com` with your Sourcegraph instance URL:

```bash
curl -L https://sourcegraph.example.com/.api/src-cli/src_linux_amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/src
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/src
```

or, with npm/npx, if you know the specific version to target, for example 3.43.2:

```bash
npx @sourcegraph/[email protected] version
```

### Installation: Windows

See [Sourcegraph CLI for Windows](WINDOWS.md).

### Installation: Docker

`sourcegraph/src-cli` is published to Docker Hub. You can use the `latest` tag or a specific version such as `3.43`. To see all versions view [sourcegraph/src-cli tags](https://hub.docker.com/r/sourcegraph/src-cli/tags).

```bash
docker run --rm=true sourcegraph/src-cli:latest search 'hello world'
```

## Log into your Sourcegraph instance

Run src login SOURCEGRAPH-URL to authenticate `src` to access your Sourcegraph instance with your user credentials.

**Examples**
`src login https://sourcegraph.example.com`
`src login https://sourcegraph.com`

`src` consults the following environment variables:

- `SRC_ENDPOINT`: the URL to your Sourcegraph instance (such as `https://sourcegraph.example.com`)
- `SRC_ACCESS_TOKEN`: your Sourcegraph access token (on your Sourcegraph instance, click your user menu in the top right, then select **Settings > Access tokens** to create one)

For convenience, you can add these environment variables persistently.

### Configuration: Mac OS / Linux

Add the following to your terminal profile file, typically accessible at `~/.bash_profile` (if using Bash) or `~/.zprofile` (if using Zsh):

```
export SRC_ACCESS_TOKEN=my-token
export SRC_ENDPOINT=https://sourcegraph.example.com
```

Replace `my-token` and `https://sourcegraph.example.com` with the appropriate values for your account and instance.

You can also inline them in a single command with:

```sh
SRC_ENDPOINT=https://sourcegraph.example.com SRC_ACCESS_TOKEN=my-token src search 'foo'
```

### Configuration: Windows

Type the following on your PowerShell terminal:

```
$env:SRC_ENDPOINT = 'https://sourcegraph.example.com'
$env:SRC_ACCESS_TOKEN = 'my-token'
```

Replace `my-token` and `https://sourcegraph.example.com` with the appropriate values for your account and instance.

You can also manually add them via the *System Properties* windows. Check [this post](https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm) for details.

Is your Sourcegraph instance behind a custom auth proxy? See [auth proxy configuration](./AUTH_PROXY.md) docs.

## Usage

`src` provides different subcommands to interact with different parts of Sourcegraph:

- `src login` - authenticate to a Sourcegraph instance with your user credentials
- `src search` - perform searches and get results in your terminal or as JSON
- `src api` - run Sourcegraph GraphQL API requests
- `src batch` - execute and manage [batch changes](https://docs.sourcegraph.com/batch_changes)
- `src repos` - manage repositories
- `src users` - manage users
- `src orgs` - manages organization
- `src config` - manage global, org, and user settings
- `src extsvc` - manage external services (repository configuration)
- `src extensions` - manage extensions
- `src code-intel` - manages Code Intelligence data (deprecated alias: `src lsif`)
- `src serve-git` - serves your local git repositories over HTTP for Sourcegraph to pull
- `src version` - check version and guaranteed-compatible version for your Sourcegraph instance

Run `src -h` and `src -h` for more detailed usage information.
You can also read the [usage docs for the latest version of `src-cli`](https://docs.sourcegraph.com/cli/references) online.

#### Optional: Renaming `src`

If you have a naming conflict with the `src` command, such as a Bash alias, you can rename the static binary. For example, on Linux / Mac OS:

```sh
mv /usr/local/bin/src /usr/local/bin/src-cli
```

You can then invoke it via `src-cli`.

## Telemetry

`src` includes the operating system and architecture in the `User-Agent` header sent to Sourcegraph. For example, running `src` version 3.21.10 on an x86-64 Linux host will result in this header:

```
src-cli/3.21.10 linux amd64
```

To disable this and _only_ send the version, you can set `-user-agent-telemetry=false` for a single command, or set the `SRC_DISABLE_USER_AGENT_TELEMETRY` environment variable to any non-blank string.

As with [other Sourcegraph telemetry](https://docs.sourcegraph.com/dev/background-information/telemetry), any collected data is only sent to Sourcegraph.com in aggregate form.

## Development

Some useful notes on developing `src` can be found in [DEVELOPMENT.md](DEVELOPMENT.md).
