Welcome to the Netlify CLI! The new 2.0 version (now in beta) was rebuilt from the ground up to help improve the site building experience.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 8+.
• Netlify User Account

To install the Netlify CLI, run the following command in your terminal:

npm install netlify-cli@next -g

After installing the CLI globally, connect the CLI to your Netlify account with the following command:

netlify login

This will open a browser window, asking you to log in with Netlify and grant access to Netlify CLI. This will store your Netlify access token in your home folder, under ~/.netlify/config.json.

netlify [command]

# Run `help` for detailed information about CLI commands
netlify [command] help

The following environment variables can be used to override configuration file lookups and prompts:

• NETLIFY_AUTH_TOKEN - an access token to use when authenticating commands. KEEP THIS VALUE PRIVATE
• NETLIFY_SITE_ID - force the cli to think the cwd is linked to this site id. This can be made public.

Please see the getting started guide on our docs website:

• netlify.com/docs/cli

By default, the CLI collects usage stats from logged in Netlify users. This is to constantly improve the developer experience of the tool and bake in better features.

If you'd like to opt out of sending telemetry data, you can do so with the --telemetry-disable flag

# opt out of telemetry
netlify --telemetry-disable

# turn on telemetry
netlify --telemetry-enable

Or edit the telemetryDisabled property of the ~/.netlify/config.json file in your computers root directory.
