+
+ The @arv@ CLI tool provides access to a number of subcommands which are described on this page.
+
+ h3(#arv-create). arv create
+
+ @arv create@ can be used to create Arvados objects from the command line. Arv create opens up the editor of your choice (set the EDITOR environment variable) and allows you to type or paste a json or yaml description. When saved the object will be created on the API server, if it passes validation.
+
+ <notextile>
+ <pre>
+ $ <code class="userinput">arv create --help</code>
+ Options:
+ --project-uuid, -p <s>: Project uuid in which to create the object
+ --help, -h: Show this message
+ </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.
+
+ <notextile>
+ <pre>
+ $ <code class="userinput">arv edit --help</code>
+ Arvados command line client
+ Usage: arv edit [uuid] [fields...]
+
+ Fetch the specified Arvados object, select the specified fields,
+ open an interactive text editor on a text representation (json or
+ yaml, use --format) and then update the object. Will use 'nano'
+ by default, customize with the EDITOR or VISUAL environment variable.
+ </pre>
+ </notextile>
+
+ h3(#arv-copy). arv copy
+
+ @arv copy@ can be used to copy a pipeline instance, template or collection from one Arvados instance to another. It takes care of copying the object and all its dependencies.
+
+ <notextile>
+ <pre>
+ $ <code class="userinput">arv copy --help</code>
+ usage: arv-copy [-h] [-v] [--progress] [--no-progress] [-f] --src
+ SOURCE_ARVADOS --dst DESTINATION_ARVADOS [--recursive]
+ [--no-recursive] [--dst-git-repo DST_GIT_REPO]
+ [--project-uuid PROJECT_UUID] [--retries RETRIES]
+ object_uuid
+
+ Copy a pipeline instance, template or collection from one Arvados instance to
+ another.
+
+ positional arguments:
+ object_uuid The UUID of the object to be copied.
+
+ optional arguments:
+ -h, --help show this help message and exit
+ -v, --verbose Verbose output.
+ --progress Report progress on copying collections. (default)
+ --no-progress Do not report progress on copying collections.
+ -f, --force Perform copy even if the object appears to exist at
+ the remote destination.
+ --src SOURCE_ARVADOS The name of the source Arvados instance (required).
+ May be either a pathname to a config file, or the
+ basename of a file in
+ $HOME/.config/arvados/instance_name.conf.
+ --dst DESTINATION_ARVADOS
+ The name of the destination Arvados instance
+ (required). May be either a pathname to a config file,
+ or the basename of a file in
+ $HOME/.config/arvados/instance_name.conf.
+ --recursive Recursively copy any dependencies for this object.
+ (default)
+ --no-recursive Do not copy any dependencies. NOTE: if this option is
+ given, the copied object will need to be updated
+ manually in order to be functional.
+ --dst-git-repo DST_GIT_REPO
+ The name of the destination git repository. Required
+ when copying a pipeline recursively.
+ --project-uuid PROJECT_UUID
+ The UUID of the project at the destination to which
+ the pipeline should be copied.
+ --retries RETRIES Maximum number of times to retry server requests that
+ encounter temporary failures (e.g., server down).

+ object with whitespace added for human consumption

+ format
+ --help, -e: Show this message

+
+ <notextile>
+ <pre>
+ $ <code class="userinput">arv pipeline run --help</code>
+ 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)

+ 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
