Command Reference
This reference summarizes the current CLI surface. For the exact flags on your installed version, run:
$ bctrl --help $ bctrl <command> --help $ bctrl <command> <subcommand> --help
Global flags
These apply to data commands across the CLI:
| Flag | Purpose |
|---|---|
--json [fields] | JSON output, with optional comma-separated field projection. |
--jq <expr> | Filter JSON with a jq expression (requires --json). |
--template <tpl> | Format JSON with a Handlebars template (requires --json). |
-L, --limit <n> / --cursor <c> | Pagination on list commands. |
-y, --yes | Confirm destructive commands. |
--no-color | Disable color output. |
Write commands that take a request body (create, patch, and similar) also accept --input <path> to read JSON from a file, or - for stdin. It is per-command, not global, and appears below where it applies.
