Command Language Syntax

The Bright CLI accepts a wide variety of configuration options. You can run bright-cli --help command for comprehensive documentation. The configuration options and arguments in the command line must be passed after the program command that the Bright CLI is executing.

  • Most commands and some options have aliases. Aliases are shown in the syntax statement for each command.
  • The option names are prefixed with a double dash (--). The option aliases are prefixed with a single dash (-). Arguments are not prefixed.
