+h3(#arv-get). arv get
+
+@arv get@ can be used to get a textual representation of Arvados objects from the command line. The output can be limited to a subset of the object's fields. This command can be used with only the knowledge of an object's UUID.
+
+<notextile>
+<pre>
+$ <code class="userinput">arv get --help</code>
+Usage: arv [--format json|yaml] get [uuid] [fields...]
+
+Fetch the specified Arvados object, select the specified fields,
+and print a text representation.
+</pre>
+</notextile>
+
h3(#arv-edit). arv edit
@arv edit@ can be used to edit Arvados objects from the command line. Arv edit opens up the editor of your choice (set the EDITOR environment variable) with the json or yaml description of the object. Saving the file will update the Arvados object on the API server, if it passes validation.

-Copy data from the local filesystem to Keep.
+List contents of a manifest
positional arguments:
- path Local file or directory. Default: read from standard
- input.
+ locator Collection UUID or locator
optional arguments:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
- --max-manifest-depth N
- Maximum depth of directory tree to represent in the
- manifest structure. A directory structure deeper than
- this will be represented as a single stream in the
- manifest. If N=0, the manifest will contain a single
- stream. Default: -1 (unlimited), i.e., exactly one
- manifest stream per filesystem directory that contains
- files.
- --normalize Normalize the manifest by re-ordering files and
- streams after writing data.
- --as-stream Synonym for --stream.
- --stream Store the file content and display the resulting
- manifest on stdout. Do not write the manifest to Keep
- or save a Collection object in Arvados.
- --as-manifest Synonym for --manifest.
- --in-manifest Synonym for --manifest.
- --manifest Store the file data and resulting manifest in Keep,
- save a Collection object in Arvados, and display the
- manifest locator (Collection uuid) on stdout. This is
- the default behavior.
- --as-raw Synonym for --raw.
- --raw Store the file content and display the data block
- locators on stdout, separated by commas, with a
- trailing newline. Do not store a manifest.
- --use-filename FILENAME
- Synonym for --filename.
- --filename FILENAME Use the given filename in the manifest, instead of the
- name of the local file. This is useful when "-" or
- "/dev/stdin" is given as an input file. It can be used
- only if there is exactly one path given and it is not
- a directory. Implies --manifest.
- --portable-data-hash Print the portable data hash instead of the Arvados
- UUID for the collection created by the upload.
- --project-uuid UUID Store the collection in the specified project, instead
- of your Home project.
- --name NAME Save the collection with the specified name.
- --progress Display human-readable progress on stderr (bytes and,
- if possible, percentage of total data size). This is
- the default behavior when stderr is a tty.
- --no-progress Do not display human-readable progress on stderr, even
- if stderr is a tty.
- --batch-progress Display machine-readable progress on stderr (bytes
- and, if known, total data size).
- --resume Continue interrupted uploads from cached state
- (default).
- --no-resume Do not continue interrupted uploads from cached state.
- --retries RETRIES Maximum number of times to retry server requests that
- encounter temporary failures (e.g., server down).
- Default 3.
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ --retries RETRIES Maximum number of times to retry server requests that

-Options:
- --dry-run, -n: Do not start any new jobs or wait for existing jobs to
- finish. Just find out whether jobs are finished,
- queued, or running for each component.
- --status-text <s>: Store plain text status in given file. (Default:
- /dev/stdout)
- --status-json <s>: Store json-formatted pipeline in given file. (Default:
- /dev/null)
- --no-wait: Do not wait for jobs to finish. Just look up status,
- submit new jobs if needed, and exit.
- --no-reuse: Do not reuse existing jobs to satisfy pipeline
- components. Submit a new job for every component.
- --debug, -d: Print extra debugging information on stderr.
- --debug-level <i>: Set debug verbosity level.
- --template <s>: UUID of pipeline template, or path to local pipeline
- template file.
- --instance <s>: UUID of pipeline instance.
- --submit: Submit the pipeline instance to the server, and exit.
- Let the Crunch dispatch service satisfy the components
- by finding/running jobs.
- --run-pipeline-here: Manage the pipeline instance in-process. Submit jobs
- to Crunch as needed. Do not exit until the pipeline
- finishes (or fails).
- --run-jobs-here: Run jobs in the local terminal session instead of
- submitting them to Crunch. Implies
- --run-pipeline-here. Note: this results in a
- significantly different job execution environment, and
- some Crunch features are not supported. It can be
- necessary to modify a pipeline in order to make it run
- this way.
- --run-here: Synonym for --run-jobs-here.
- --description <s>: Description for the pipeline instance.
- --version, -v: Print version and exit
- --help, -h: Show this message
