Quick Start

CloudBase CLI installs globally through npm. After tcb login completes, the CLI can run resource management commands.

Prerequisites​

  • A Tencent Cloud account.
  • CloudBase activated with an environment created. See Create an environment.
  • Node.js. Required when installing through npm, yarn, or pnpm.

Install​

npm i -g @cloudbase/cli

For other package managers, registry mirrors, and upgrades, see Installation.

Log in​

tcb login

tcb login uses device code authorization: the terminal prints an authorization link and a user code. Open the link on a device with a browser, enter the user code, and confirm.

On a machine with a graphical interface, use local callback authorization instead:

tcb login --flow web

For international accounts, sub-accounts, and other login methods, see Login authentication.

Verify​

tcb env list

The command prints the environments available to the current account, including environment IDs.
