BODHI(1)

NAME
bodhi - manage Fedora updates

SYNOPSIS

bodhi COMMAND SUBCOMMAND [OPTIONS] [ARGS]…

DESCRIPTION

bodhi is the command line interface to bodhi, Fedora’s update release management system. It can be used to create or modify updates and overrides.

OPTIONS

Most of the commands will accept these options:

--debug Some commands accept this flag to show extra debug information.

--help Show help text and exit.

--password <text> A password to authenticate as the user given by --user.

--staging Use the staging bodhi instance instead of the production instance.

--url <url> Use the Bodhi server at the given URL instead of the default server. This can also be set with the BODHI_URL environment variable. This is ignored if the --staging flag is set.

--user <username> Many commands accept this flag to specify a Fedora username to authenticate with. Note that some read operations such as querying updates and overrides use this same flag, but as a search parameter instead of authentication (as authentication is not required for these operations).

--version Show version and exit. Not accepted by subcommands.
