# CLI Commands
The AstrBot CLI initializes instances, starts AstrBot, installs background services, reads logs, updates common config values, and manages plugins.
If you install AstrBot with `uv`:
```bash
uv tool install astrbot --python 3.12
```
`uv` creates the `astrbot` executable and puts it on `PATH`. You can inspect the path with:
::: code-group
```bash [Linux / macOS]
which astrbot
```
```powershell [Windows]
where.exe astrbot
```
:::
> [!TIP]
> Run the commands below from the AstrBot working directory unless the command provides a `--workdir` option.
## Quick Start
Initialize the directory once, then start AstrBot:
```bash
astrbot init
astrbot run
```
`astrbot init` creates the data directories and configuration files required by AstrBot. After initialization, use `astrbot run` for later starts.
## Top-Level Commands
| Command | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `astrbot init` | Initialize the current directory as an AstrBot working directory. |
| `astrbot run` | Start AstrBot in the foreground. |
| `astrbot service` | Install and manage AstrBot as a background service. |
| `astrbot config` | Read or update common config values. |
| `astrbot password` | Change the WebUI login password interactively. |
| `astrbot plugin` | Create, install, update, remove, or search plugins. |
| `astrbot help` | Show CLI help. |
| `astrbot --version` | Show the AstrBot CLI version. |
`conf` and `plug` are compatibility aliases and still work:
```bash
astrbot conf get
astrbot plug list
```
Prefer `config` and `plugin` in new docs and scripts.
## Start AstrBot
```bash
astrbot run
```
Common options:
| Option | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `-p, --port <PORT>` | Set the WebUI port. |
| `-r, --reload` | Enable plugin auto-reload for plugin development. |
Examples:
```bash
astrbot run --port 6185
astrbot run --reload
```
## Background Service
`astrbot service` installs AstrBot as a user-level background service for long-running deployments.
Each platform uses its native service manager:
| Platform | Service manager |
| --- | --- |
| Linux | `systemd --user` |
| macOS | LaunchAgent |
| Windows | Task Scheduler |
### Install
```bash
astrbot service install --now
```
By default, this command uses the `astrbot` executable found on `PATH` and the current directory as the AstrBot working directory. `--now` starts or restarts the service after installation.
Common options:
| Option | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `--name <NAME>` | Service name. Default: `astrbot`. |
| `--workdir <DIR>` | AstrBot working directory. |
| `--executable <PATH>` | Path to the `astrbot` executable. |
| `--force` | Overwrite an existing service definition. |
| `--now` | Start or restart the service after installation. |
If `astrbot` is not on `PATH`, pass the executable explicitly:
```bash
astrbot service install --workdir /path/to/astrbot-root --executable /path/to/astrbot --now
```
### Manage
```bash
astrbot service start
astrbot service stop
astrbot service restart
astrbot service uninstall
```
These commands support `--name <NAME>` for non-default service names:
```bash
astrbot service restart --name astrbot-test
```
To remove a service without an interactive confirmation:
```bash
astrbot service uninstall --force
```
### Status
```bash
astrbot service status
```
The status output includes:
- Overall health.
- Current platform and service manager.
- Whether the service is installed, enabled, and running.
- AstrBot working directory.
- Dashboard port.
- WebUI URL and accessibility.
Common options:
| Option | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `--name <NAME>` | Service name. Default: `astrbot`. |
| `--workdir <DIR>` | AstrBot working directory used to read the port config. |
| `--timeout <SECONDS>` | WebUI health probe timeout. Default: 2 seconds. |
Example:
```bash
astrbot service status --timeout 5
```
## Logs
The CLI exposes two kinds of logs:
| Type | Command | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Service logs | `astrbot service logs` | Reads console output captured by the service manager. |
| Application log file | `astrbot service logs --source app` | Reads `data/logs/astrbot.log`; file logging must be enabled first. |
### Service Logs
```bash
astrbot service logs
astrbot service logs -n 100
astrbot service logs -f
```
Common options:
| Option | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `--name <NAME>` | Service name. |
| `-n, --lines <N>` | Show the latest N lines. Default: 200. |
| `-f, --follow` | Follow log output. |
| `--include-stderr` | Also show stderr logs on macOS and Windows. |
On macOS and Windows, `astrbot service logs` shows stdout logs by default, which are the `.out.log` files. Add `--include-stderr` when you also need error output.
### Application Log File
`data/logs/astrbot.log` is not written by default. Enable application file logging first, then restart AstrBot:
```bash
astrbot service logs enable
astrbot service restart
astrbot service logs --source app
```
Inspect the application log file configuration:
```bash
astrbot service logs status
```
Disable the application log file:
```bash
astrbot service logs disable
astrbot service restart
```
Use a custom application log path:
```bash
astrbot service logs enable --path logs/astrbot.log
```
Relative paths are resolved from the AstrBot data directory.
## Config
`astrbot config` reads and updates common config values.
```bash
astrbot config get
astrbot config get dashboard.port
astrbot config set dashboard.port 6185
```
Supported keys:
| Key | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `timezone` | Time zone, for example `Asia/Shanghai`. |
| `log_level` | Log level: `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR`, or `CRITICAL`. |
| `dashboard.port` | WebUI port. |
| `dashboard.username` | WebUI username. |
| `dashboard.password` | WebUI password. |
| `callback_api_base` | Callback API base URL. Must start with `http://` or `https://`. |
Changing the dashboard password writes the current password hashes automatically:
```bash
astrbot config set dashboard.password "new-password"
```
You can also use the dedicated interactive password command:
```bash
astrbot password
astrbot password --username admin
```
## Plugins
`astrbot plugin` manages plugins under `data/plugins`.
| Command | Purpose |
| --- | --- |
| `astrbot plugin list` | List installed plugins. |
| `astrbot plugin list --all` | Also show uninstalled plugins. |
| `astrbot plugin search <QUERY>` | Search plugins. |
| `astrbot plugin install <NAME>` | Install a plugin. |
| `astrbot plugin update [NAME]` | Update one plugin, or all updatable plugins if no name is given. |
| `astrbot plugin remove <NAME>` | Remove an installed plugin. |
| `astrbot plugin new <NAME>` | Create a new plugin from the template. |
Use a GitHub proxy when installing or updating plugins:
```bash
astrbot plugin install example-plugin --proxy https://gh-proxy.example.com/
astrbot plugin update --proxy https://gh-proxy.example.com/
```
Creating a new plugin asks for the author, description, version, and repository URL:
```bash
astrbot plugin new my-plugin
```
## Help
Show general CLI help:
```bash
astrbot help
```
Show help for a specific command:
```bash
astrbot help service
astrbot service --help
astrbot service logs --help
```
Show the version:
```bash
astrbot --version
```
