pinto-remote manual COMMAND

DESCRIPTION

pinto-remote is a command line utility for using a remote Pinto repository. See pinto-admin for information on creating a Pinto repository, and pinto-server for information on providing remote access to the repository.

Once a Pinto repository has been established and the pinto-server is running, you can use pinto-remote to add distributions, remove packages, or inspect the contents of the repository.

GLOBAL OPTIONS

The following options are available for all commands.

--root=URL

Specifies the root URL of your remote repository (i.e. this is where pinto-server is listening). You may omit the http:// part if you like. And if you do not specify a port in your URL, then it defaults to default port used by pinto-server (which is currently 3000). Alternatively, you can set the PINTO_REPOSITORY_ROOT environment variable to the root URL of your remote repository. If no root is specified, it defaults to http://localhost:3000

--username=USER

Specifies the username to use for server authentication. If not provided, and a --password is used, defaults to the current user login.

--password=PASSWORD

--password=-

Specifies the password to use for server authentication. If not provided, no authentication is attempted. If PASSWORD is the special character '-' then you'll be prompted to provide the actual password.

−quiet | -q

Report only fatal errors. This option silently overrides the --verbose options.

--verbose | -v

Display more diagnostic messages. This switch can be repeated multiple times for greater effect.
