A powerful command-line interface for managing and interacting with Weaviate vector databases directly from your terminal.
## Key Features
- **Collections**: Create, update, delete and get collection configurations
- **Data Management**: Import, query, update and delete data with various search types (vector, keyword, hybrid)
- **Multi-tenancy**: Manage tenants and their states across collections
- **Backup & Restore**: Create and restore backups with support for S3, GCS and filesystem
- **Sharding**: Monitor and manage collection shards
- **Flexible Configuration**: Configure vector indexes, replication, consistency levels and more
- **Role Management**: Assign and revoke roles and permissions to users
## Quick Start
Install using pip:
```bash
pip install weaviate-cli
```
On Mac, install using Homebrew:
```bash
brew install weaviate-cli
```
## Basic Usage
```bash
# Show available commands
weaviate-cli --help
# Create a collection
weaviate-cli create collection --collection movies --vectorizer transformers
# Import test data
weaviate-cli create data --collection movies --limit 1000
# Query data
weaviate-cli query data --collection movies --search-type hybrid --query "action movies"
```
## Core Commands
- **create**: Create collections, tenants, backups or import data
- **delete**: Remove collections, tenants or data
- **update**: Modify collection settings, tenant states or data
- **get**: Retrieve collection info, tenant details or shard status
- **query**: Search data using various methods
- **restore**: Restore backups from supported backends
- **assign**: Assign roles and permissions to users
- **revoke**: Revoke roles and permissions from users
## Configuration
Weaviate CLI allows you to configure your cluster endpoints and parameters through a configuration file. By default, the CLI looks for a
configuration file at `~/.config/weaviate/config.json`. If this file does not exist, it will be created with the following default values:
```json
{
"host": "localhost",
"http_port": "8080",
"grpc_port": "50051"
}
```
You can also specify your own configuration file using the `--config-file` option:
```bash
weaviate-cli --config-file /path/to/your/config.json
```
The configuration file should be a JSON file with the following structure:
```json
{
"host": "your-weaviate-host",
"http_port": "your-http-port",
"grpc_port": "your-grpc-port",
"auth": {
"type": "api_key",
"api_key": "your-api-key"
}
}
```
If you are using a remote Weaviate instance, you can use the `weaviate-cli` command to authenticate with your Weaviate instance.
Here you can see an example on how the configuration file should look like if you are connecting to a WCD cluster:
```json
{
"host": "thisisaninventedcluster.url.s3.us-west3.prov.weaviate.cloud",
"auth": {
"type": "api_key",
"api_key": "jfeRFsdfRfSasgsDoNOtTrYToUsErRQwqqdZfghasd"
},
"headers":{
"X-OpenAI-Api-Key":"OPEN_AI_KEY",
"X-Cohere-Api-Key":"Cohere_AI_KEY",
"X-JinaAI-Api-Key":"JINA_AI_KEY"
}
}
```
If you want to allow using different users for different actions in your cluster, you can specify the different users in the configuration file and use the `--user` option to specify which user to use for a specific action.
An example of how the configuration file should look like is the following:
```json
{
"host": "your-weaviate-host",
"auth": {
"type": "user",
"user1": "your-api-key-for-user1",
"user2": "your-api-key-for-user2"
}
}
```
It's important to note that the "type" key must be set to "user" and the users must be specified in the auth section.
When using the `weaviate-cli` command, you can specify the user to use for an action by using the `--user` option. For example:
```bash
weaviate-cli --user user1 create collection --collection movies --vectorizer transformers
weaviate-cli --user user2 get collection --collection movies
```
