                        whitespace-delimited list of machine names to filter
                        on when using the --mine argument. Typically one would
                        instead use the GBPCLI_MYMACHINES environment
                        variable.

The URL for the Gentoo Build Publisher may be provided via the command line or by using the BUILD_PUBLISHER_URL environment variable.

To list the machines which have builds use gbp machines:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enku/gbpcli/master/assets/gbp_machines.svg

The "Latest" column shows the latest build ID for the given machine. If the ID is in bold it that denotes that the latest build is published (available for emerges).

To list the available builds for a given machine us gbp list <machine>:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enku/gbpcli/master/assets/gbp_list.svg

In the above example, the P output for build 103 signifies that this build is currently published. The * flag means that the respective build has new binary packages. The K for build 46 means that the build is marked for keeping and will not be removed during the purge process. Build 2 has also been given a "first" tag. The N flag for build 126 means that the build has a note attached.

$ gbp status jenkins-buildah 126

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enku/gbpcli/master/assets/gbp_status.svg

Edit/delete build notes using the gbp notes command.

The status subcommand displays metadata about a given build. If the build number is not given, it defaults to the latest build for that machine.

The diff subcommand display differences between two builds.

$ gbp diff jenkins-buildah 103 126

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/enku/gbpcli/master/assets/gbp_diff.svg

If the second build number is not given, it defaults to the latest build for that machine. If the first build number is not given, it defaults to the published build for that machine.

The publish subcommand makes the given build available for syncing and updating/downgrading.

$ gbp publish arm64-base 151

If the build number is not given, it defaults to the latest build for that machine.

The build subcommand can schedule a build in CI/CD for the given machine, e.g.:

$ gbp build babette

Configuration

In addition to the command-line flags, gbpcli can also be configured using a configuration file. If a the file ~/.config/gbpcli.toml exists it will be read and used to configure gbpcli. This file should be toml formatted. For example:

[gbpcli]
url = "http://gbpbox/"
my_machines = ["babette", "lighthouse", "polaris"]
auth = { user = "marduk", api_key = "myapikey" }

The url setting can be used in place of the --url command-line option or the BUILD_PUBLISHER_URL environment variable. The my_machines settings can be used in place of the --my-machines command-line option or the GBPCLI_MYMACHINES environment variable. The auth setting can only be supplied through the configuration file.
