Log in and choose a Space

Log in to the CLI as a Monimeer with your browser, stay logged in as several Monimeers, switch Spaces and check who you are.

Commands act as the Monimeer you are logged in as, within the Space you choose. Logging in takes a browser; for CI and scripts, use an access token instead.

Log in

Start the login

Terminal
monime login

The CLI opens cli.monime.io in your browser. monime login is a shortcut for monime account login.

Approve the login in your browser

Sign in to Monime if you are not already, and approve the CLI. The CLI shares this computer's name, operating system and CLI version so you can recognise the login later in the Monime portal.

Choose a Space

Back in the terminal, pick the Space to work in. If you belong to a single Space, it is chosen for you.

✓ Logged in as Monimeer +232 78 123 456.
✓ Working in space Salone Shop (sshop).

monime account login accepts these flags:

FlagWhat it does
--no-browserPrint the login URL instead of opening a browser, for example over SSH
--device-name NAMEThe name shown for this device in the Monime portal (default: this computer's name)
--skip-spaceDon't choose a Space after logging in

Check who you are

monime status, or its alias monime whoami, shows the Monimeer that commands act as, whether the login is still valid, and the Space they act in:

Terminal
monime whoami
Monimeer        +232 78 123 456   ✓ logged in
Space           Salone Shop (sshop)
Configuration   default

It exits with a non-zero status when you are not logged in or the login has expired, so you can use it as a check in scripts. Add -o json or -o yaml for machine-readable output.

Work in another Space

List the Spaces you belong to, then choose one:

Terminal
monime space list
Output
NAME          ALIAS   ID                                ACTIVE
Salone Shop   sshop   spc-k9Rt4Hw2mQ8vLp3Xn7Yb5Cz1Ds    true
Acme Ltd      acme    spc-k8Y2mzRtXyQ4pLw7Nn3VbC6dHs    false
Terminal
monime space use acme

Pass the Space's alias, ID or name. Without an argument, monime space use lets you pick from a list. The choice is saved in the configuration in use; add --configuration NAME to save it in another one.

To run a single command in another Space without switching, add --space:

Terminal
monime space list --space spc-k6Em1Aap25VZ8oWg7ajhxHX3JqF -o json

Stay logged in as several Monimeers

Run monime login again to add another Monimeer. Each login gets an alias, and one of them is active.

Terminal
monime account list
