Prime CLI

Plan: Plane Pro, Plane One

The Prime CLI is our own command-line interface to help you install, upgrade, and manage your Commercial edition instance without being a pro at Docker.

Bring up the Prime CLI with sudo prime-cli from any directory on your machine.

• The three operators you will use the most are:

  • start

    You will use this to start a service in the Docker network with the name of the service.

  • stop

    You will use this to stop a service in the Docker network with the name of the service.

  • restart

    You will use this to restart a service in the Docker network with the name of the service as a {param or flag}.

• Often, you will want to monitor the health of your instance and see if some services are up or down. Use monitor to do that.

• healthcheck is another useful utility that lets you see the status and errors, if any, of all running services

• repair fixes your Plane install for common errors automatically.

• update-cli downloads and installs the latest version of Prime CLI.

  It is highly recommend to run this first before you download any Plane updates. The latest version of the CLI ensures your Plane upgrades happen smoothly.

For more advanced admins that want greater control over their instance, the list of additional commands available on Prime CLI follow.

• configure

  Brings up a step form to let you specify the following.

  Steps to configure your instance

  • Listening port

    Specify the port that the built-in reverse proxy will use

    Default value: 80

  • Max file-upload size

    Specify a size in MBs for how big each file uploaded to your Plane app can be

    Default value: 5 MB

  • External Postgres URL

    Specify the URL of your own hosted Postgres if you would like to change the database your Plane app uses.

    Default database: Postgres 15.5 in the Docker container

  • External Redis URL

    Specify the URL of your own hosted REdis if you would like to change the default Redis Plane ships with.

    Default Redis: Redis 7.2.4

  • External storage

    Specify your AWS S3 bucket’s credentials in the format below to change storage from the default Plane ships with.

    • AWS Access Key ID

    • AWS Secret Access Key

    • AWS S3 Bucket Name

    • Confirm your choices on the screen ↓.

      This restarts your instance with the new configs.

• upgrade

  checks your instance for available version upgrades and asks you for a confirmation before downloading the latest available version.

  1. Typing YES lets the CLI automatically download’s the latest version and installs it. Then it restarts the instance to load the latest app.
  2. Typing NO cancels the upgrade.

• uninstall

  uninstalls Plane. Before it goes through, it asks you for a confirmation.

  1. Typing YES lets the CLI clean up the /opt/plane folder, leaving behind the /opt/plane/data and /opt/plane/logs folders.
  2. Typing NO cancels the uninstall.
