PlanetScale CLI

Installation

homebrew tap (only on macOS for now):

brew install planetscale/tap/pscale

deb/rpm:

Download the .deb or .rpm from the releases page and install with dpkg -i and rpm -i respectively.

manually:

Download the pre-compiled binaries from the releases page and copy to the desired location.

Local Dev Setup

In order to get setup and running with this project, you can run script/setup which will install all of the necessary dependencies. If script/setup installs Go, you should ensure that your $GOPATH is set properly and that you have added $GOPATH/bin to your $PATH.

You can install and use the program using script/build or go install ./.... After doing so, you can run the tool using pscale <command> [subcommand] [flags].

For using the CLI locally, there's some extra setup involved to get authenticated.

Releasing a new version

To release a new version of the CLI make sure to switch to an updated main branch:

git checkout main
git pull origin main

after that create a new tag and push to the repo. Make sure the version is bumped:

git tag -a <version> -m <comment>
git push origin <version>

This will trigger the CI and invoke goreleaser, which will then release all the appropriate packages and archives.

Updating the vendored API package

To update the vendored github.com/planetscale/planetscale-go API package, first make sure to set up Go for private repositories:

go env -w GOPRIVATE="github.com/planetscale/*"

Then, use the following commands to fetch the latest HEAD version of the CLI:

go get github.com/planetscale/planetscale-go/planetscale
go mod vendor
go mod tidy

For logging in:

1. Create a Rails OAuth application at http://auth.planetscaledb.local:3000/oauth/applications/new. Make sure the Confidential box is unchecked and that the scopes are read_databases write_databases. You can make the Redirect URI be anything.
2. After creating this application, keep note of the client ID.
3. When logging in, you can override the default client ID by using the --client-id [uid] flag to override the default client ID with your local one. You can override the API URL to be http://auth.planetscaledb.local:3000 (or whatever your Rails server is) by passing in the --api-url http://auth.planetscaledb.local:3000/ flag. An example of the login command will look like pscale auth login --client-id your_uid --api-url http://auth.planetscaledb.local:3000/.

For testing out other endpoints:

You can use the following structure for testing locally: pscale db create --api-url http://api.planetscaledb.local:3000/. This will always use the local API server for testing.
