FastlyCTL

DEPRECATED: FastlyCTL is no longer maintained or supported. Many features are already available in the official Fastly CLI, which is actively maintained and developed. Please consider migrating if possible.

A CLI for managing Fastly configurations with Fastly's API.

• Ruby 2.2+
• diffy
• launchy
• thor
• typhoeus

gem install fastlyctl

Basic setup for a service:

$ fastlyctl download --service 72rdJo8ipqaHRFYnn12G2q
No VCLs on this service, however a folder has been created. Create VCLs in this folder and upload.
$ cd Sandbox\ -\ 72rdJo8ipqaHRFYnn12G2q/
$ fastlyctl skeleton
Boilerplate written to main.vcl.
$ fastlyctl upload
VCL main does not currently exist on the service, would you like to create it? y
[You will see a diff here for the new VCL]
Given the above diff, are you sure you want to upload your changes? y
main uploaded to 72rdJo8ipqaHRFYnn12G2q
VCL(s) have been uploaded to version 286 and validated.
$ fastlyctl activate
Version 286 on 72rdJo8ipqaHRFYnn12G2q activated.

Once you are past this point you can edit your VCLs and use the commmand fastlyctl upload && fastlyctl activate. The service ID will be automatically inferred from the folder you are currently in. In fact, all commands will attempt to assume the service ID of the current directory if it is relevant.

You may find it useful to keep a Github repo with one folder created by this command for each service. This way you can version your VCL files.

Provides a diff of two service versions. You may optionally specify which two service IDs and which two versions to diff. If you do not provide service IDs, the context of the current working directory is assumed.

• If you provide no service IDs, the service ID of the working directory is assumed.
• If you do not specify versions, active VCL will be diffed with local VCL in the current directory.
• If you specify version 1 but not version 2, version 1 will be diffed with local VCL
• If you specify both versions, they will be diffed with each other.
• If you provide service 1 but not service 2, service 2 will be assumed from the current working directory.
• Regardless of how you specify services, if service 1 and service 2 are different, the versions will default to the active versions instead of local VCL.

Usage:

fastlyctl diff

• --s1: The first service to diff against.
• --v1: The version to diff.

• --v: The version to download. The currently active version is assumed.

Manage the realtime logging configuration for a service, as well as checking on the status of the logging endpoints. Logging requires a subcommand of either status or the name of a logging provider listed below.

Status returns the current status of your logging configurations in JSON format. Helps in telling you whether or not the logging is working or returning an error.

• --v / --version Version of the service to use
• --n / --name Current name of the logging configuration
• --nn / --new-name Used for the update method to rename a configuration
• --ff / --format-file Path to the file containing the JSON Representation of the logline, must match BigQuery schema
• --u / --user Google Cloud Service Account Email
• --scf / --secret-key-file Path to the file that contains the Google Cloud Account secret key

fastlyctl logging bigquery --help

Login to the Fastly app and create an API token. This token will be stored in your home directory for the CLI to use for all requests.

If your origanization uses SSO to login to Fastly, this command will prompt you to create a token and save it to ~/.fastlyctl_token on your computer. You may also create the token and save it to the fastlyctl_token file without using the fastlyctl login command at all.

Usage:

fastlyctl login
