| # mmctl | ||
| [](https://mattermost.com) | ||
| # mmctl no longer lives in this repository since we have moved to using a monorepo located in https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost. | ||
|
|
||
|  | ||
| [](https://codecov.io/gh/mattermost/mmctl/branch/master) | ||
| [](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/mattermost/mmctl) | ||
| [Our developer setup instructions](https://developers.mattermost.com/contribute/developer-setup/) have been updated to use the monorepo, and we're going to be continuing to update our developer documentation to reflect the new setup over the next couple weeks. | ||
|
|
||
| All changes going forward should be made in the monorepo since we're no longer accepting PRs in this repository, and any existing PRs should be resubmitted over there. We have some notes on how to do that migration [here](https://developers.mattermost.com/contribute/monorepo-migration-notes/), but most of the code that was previously in this repository is now located in [`server/cmd/mmctl`](https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/tree/master/server/cmd/mmctl) in the monorepo. We were unable to maintain Git history with the move, so migrating PRs to the new repo will likely involve a lot of manually copying changes to their new locations. | ||
|
|
||
| [Mattermost](https://mattermost.com) is an open source platform for secure collaboration across the entire software development lifecycle. mmctl is a remote CLI tool that lets you manage your Mattermost instance from the terminal. | ||
| The `mmctl` documentation can be accessed within the [the Mattermost documentation](https://docs.mattermost.com/manage/mmctl-command-line-tool.html). | ||
|
|
||
| ## Install | ||
|
|
||
| To install the project in your `$GOPATH`, simply run: | ||
|
|
||
| ``` | ||
| go install github.com/mattermost/mmctl/v6@master | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Install shell completions | ||
|
|
||
| To install the shell completions for bash, add the following line to your `~/.bashrc` or `~/.profile` file: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| source <(mmctl completion bash) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| For zsh, add the following line to file `~/.zshrc`: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| source <(mmctl completion zsh) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| ## Usage | ||
|
|
||
| For the usage of all the commands, use the `--help` flag or check [the tool's documentation](./docs/mmctl.rst). | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| Mattermost offers workplace messaging across web, PC and phones with archiving, search and integration with your existing systems. Documentation available at https://docs.mattermost.com | ||
|
|
||
| Usage: | ||
| mmctl [command] | ||
|
|
||
| Available Commands: | ||
| auth Manages the credentials of the remote Mattermost instances | ||
| channel Management of channels | ||
| completion Generates autocompletion scripts for bash and zsh | ||

|
||
| Flags: | ||
| -h, --help help for mmctl | ||
|
|
||
| Use "mmctl [command] --help" for more information about a command. | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| First we have to log into a mattermost instance: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth login https://my-instance.example.com --name my-instance --username john.doe --password mysupersecret | ||
|
|
||
| credentials for my-instance: john.doe@https://my-instance.example.com stored | ||
|
|
||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| We can check the currently stored credentials with: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth list | ||
|
|
||
| | Active | Name | Username | InstanceUrl | | ||
| |--------|-------------|----------|---------------------------------| | ||
| | * | my-instance | john.doe | https://my-instance.example.com | | ||
|
|
||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| And now we can run commands normally: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl user search john.doe | ||
| id: qykfw3t933y38k57ubct77iu9c | ||
| username: john.doe | ||
| nickname: | ||
| position: | ||
| first_name: John | ||
| last_name: Doe | ||
| email: john.doe@example.com | ||
| auth_service: | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| **NOTE:** `mmctl` is designed to run against a specific version of the `mattermost-server` and its API. If run against a server with a different version, `mmctl` will show a warning and will try to execute the commands. To ensure that the commands won't run if the server version is not supported, please use the `--strict` flag or set the `MMCTL_STRICT=true` environment variable. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Login methods | ||
|
|
||
| ### Password | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth login https://community.mattermost.com --name community --username my-username --password mysupersecret | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| The `login` command can also work interactively, so if you leave any needed flag empty, `mmctl` will ask you for it interactively: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth login https://community.mattermost.com | ||
| Connection name: community | ||
| Username: my-username | ||
| Password: | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### MFA | ||
|
|
||
| If you want to login with MFA, you just need to use the `--mfa-token` flag: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth login https://community.mattermost.com --name community --username my-username --password mysupersecret --mfa-token 123456 | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Access tokens | ||
|
|
||
| Instead of using username and password to log in, you can generate and use a personal access token to authenticate with a server: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ mmctl auth login https://community.mattermost.com --name community --access-token MY_ACCESS_TOKEN | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
|
|
||
| # Development | ||
|
|
||
| ## Compile | ||
|
|
||
| First we have to install the dependencies of the project. `mmctl` depends on go version 1.13.3 or greater. | ||
|
|
||
| We can compile the binary with: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| make build | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ## Running the tests | ||
|
|
||
| `mmctl` has two types of tests: unit tests and end to end tests. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Unit tests | ||
|
|
||
| To run the unit tests, you just need to execute: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| make test | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| ### End to end tests | ||
|
|
||
| To run the end to end test suite, you need to have the Mattermost server project downloaded and configured in your system. Check the [Developer Setup](https://developers.mattermost.com/contribute/server/developer-setup/) guide on how to configure a local server instance. The tests will search for a `mattermost-server` folder in the same directory where the `mmctl` is, but this can be changed through configuration if you have the project in a different path. Take a look at [the `config.mk` file](./config.mk) in this repository for instructions on how to make this change. | ||
|
|
||
| With the `mattermost-server` folder present, the only thing that needs to be done before running the tests themselves is to start the Mattermost docker development environment. The environment only needs to be started once, and then the tests can run as many times as needed. To start the docker environment, change to the `mattermost-server` project directory and run: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| make start-docker | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Change your directory back to `mmctl` and run the end to end test suite with: | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| make test-e2e | ||
| ``` | ||
| This repository is being kept open until December 2023 to maintain support for our [extended support releases](https://docs.mattermost.com/upgrade/extended-support-release.html) at which point it will be archived and kept as a historical record. |
