SDK Command Line Interface

Logfire comes with a CLI used for authentication and project management:

{{ logfire_help }}

Authentication (auth)

You need to be authenticated to use the Logfire.

!!! abstract Read the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy if you want to know how we handle your data. 🤓

To authenticate yourself, run the auth command in the terminal:

logfire auth

You will be prompted to select a data region (EU or US). To specify this via the cli instead of interactively, use logfire --region eu auth or logfire --region eu auth

Then you will be given the option to open logfire in your browser:

After pressing "Enter", you will be redirected to the browser to log in to your account.

Then, if you go back to the terminal, you'll see that you are authenticated! 🎉

Clean (clean)

To clean most the files created by Logfire, run the following command:

logfire clean

The clean command doesn't remove the logs, and the authentication information stored in the ~/.logfire directory.

To also remove the logs, you can run the following command:

logfire clean --logs

Inspect (inspect)

The inspect command is used to identify the missing OpenTelemetry instrumentation packages in your project.

To inspect your project, run the following command:

logfire inspect

This will output the projects you need to install to have optimal OpenTelemetry instrumentation.

Who Am I (whoami)

Projects

List (projects list)

To check the projects you have access to, run the following command:

logfire projects list

You'll see something like this:

❯ logfire projects list
┏━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┳━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┓

┡━━━━━━━━━━━━━━╇━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━┩
│ Kludex       │ backend        │
│ Kludex       │ worker         │
└──────────────┴────────────────┘

Use (projects use)

To use an already created project, run the following command:

logfire projects use <project-name>

For example, to use the backend project, you can run:

logfire projects use backend

Create (projects new)

To create a new project, run the following command:

logfire projects new <project-name>

Follow the instructions, and you'll have a new project created in no time! 🥳
