DBOS CLI

Commands

DBOS Cloud executes this command to start your app.

DBOS Cloud uses this command during application deployment to migrate your database schema.

dbos init

Initialize the local directory with a DBOS template application.

Parameters:

<application-name>: The name of your application. If not specified, will be prompted for.
--template, -t <str>: Specify a template to use. Currently, we have a single "hello" template, which is used by default.
