@insforge/cli

@insforge/cli

Command line tool for the InsForge platform. Manage your databases, edge functions, storage, deployments, secrets, and more — directly from the terminal.

Designed to be both human-friendly (interactive prompts, formatted tables) and agent-friendly (structured JSON output, non-interactive mode, semantic exit codes).

Installation

npm install -g @insforge/cli

Requires Node.js >= 18.

Quick Start

# Login via browser (OAuth)
insforge login

# Or login with email/password
insforge login --email

# Check current user
insforge whoami

# List all organizations and projects
insforge list

# Link current directory to a project
insforge link

# Query the database
insforge db tables
insforge db query "SELECT * FROM users LIMIT 10"

Authentication

Browser Login (default)

insforge login

Opens your browser to the InsForge authorization page using OAuth 2.0 Authorization Code + PKCE. A local callback server receives the authorization code and exchanges it for tokens. Credentials are stored in ~/.insforge/credentials.json.

Email/Password Login

insforge login --email

Prompts for email and password interactively, or reads from environment variables in non-interactive mode:

INSFORGE_EMAIL=[e-mail] INSFORGE_PASSWORD=secret insforge login --email --json

Logout

insforge logout

Project Configuration

Running insforge link creates a .insforge/ directory in your project:

.insforge/
└── project.json    # project_id, org_id, appkey, region, api_key, oss_host

Add .insforge/ to your .gitignore — it contains your project API key.

Global configuration is stored in ~/.insforge/:

~/.insforge/
├── credentials.json    # access_token, refresh_token, user profile
└── config.json         # default_org_id, platform_api_url

Environment Variables

Variable	Description
INSFORGE_ACCESS_TOKEN	Override the stored access token
INSFORGE_PROJECT_ID	Override the linked project ID
INSFORGE_API_URL	Override the Platform API URL
INSFORGE_EMAIL	Email for non-interactive login
INSFORGE_PASSWORD	Password for non-interactive login

Non-Interactive / CI Usage

All commands support --json for structured output and -y to skip confirmation prompts:

# Login in CI
INSFORGE_EMAIL=$EMAIL INSFORGE_PASSWORD=$PASSWORD insforge login --email --json

# Link a project
insforge link --project-id $PROJECT_ID --org-id $ORG_ID -y

# Query and pipe results
insforge db query "SELECT * FROM users" --json | jq '.rows[].email'

# Deploy frontend
insforge deployments deploy ./dist --json

# Upload a build artifact
insforge storage upload ./dist/bundle.js --bucket assets --key "v1.2.0/bundle.js" --json

Exit Codes

Code	Meaning
0	Success
1	General error
2	Authentication failure
3	Project not linked (run insforge link first)
4	Resource not found
5	Permission denied

Development

git clone <repo-url>
cd insforge-CLI
npm install
npm run build
npm link        # makes `insforge` available globally

npm run dev     # watch mode for development

Releasing

Bump the version, push the tag, and create a GitHub Release — the CI will publish to npm automatically.

# Bump version (creates commit + tag)
npm version patch   # 0.1.3 → 0.1.4
# or
npm version minor   # 0.1.3 → 0.2.0

# Push commit and tag
git push && git push --tags

Then go to GitHub → Releases → Draft a new release, select the tag (e.g. v0.1.4), and publish. The publish workflow will run npm publish automatically.
