Skip to main content
A remote file manager for your application: list, read, write, move and delete files without a commit. Every subcommand takes the application ID with --app; when omitted, the CLI falls back to the squarecloud.app config file in the current directory, then an interactive picker. 
squarecloud app file list
# Lists files at the root of the application.

squarecloud app file list /logs --app <appID>
# Lists files in a specific directory of a specific application.

squarecloud app file list --json
# Prints the raw file list as JSON.

squarecloud app file read config.json --app <appID>
# Prints the file content to stdout.

squarecloud app file read config.json -o ./local-config.json --app <appID>
# Saves the file content to a local file instead of printing it.

cat ./config.json | squarecloud app file write config.json --app <appID>
# Writes stdin as the file content, creating or overwriting it.

squarecloud app file write config.json --from ./local-config.json --app <appID>
# Writes the content of a local file instead of reading from stdin.

squarecloud app file move old-name.txt new-name.txt --app <appID>
# Moves or renames a file. Aliases: "mv", "rename".

squarecloud app file delete old-log.txt --app <appID>
# Deletes a file. Alias: "rm".
The delete subcommand is destructive: it asks for y/N confirmation before removing the file. Pass -y/--yes to skip the prompt. Use squarecloud app file --help for more information about this command.
