More command line options

Command Line Options

The CLI supports additional command line arguments to configure your environment:

The -c flag allows passing a custom config file, for example, when configuring a custom authentication provider.

./roadie-local start -c /path/to/your/config.yaml

The -d flag allows passing a custom domain.

./roadie-local start -d your-domain.example.com

The -f flag allows passing a custom docker compose file.

./roadie-local start -f /path/to/docker-compose.yaml

The same options apply to the restart command.

./roadie-local restart -c path/to/oauth/config.yaml

Global Command Line Options

In addition to command-specific options, the CLI supports a global --debug flag, which will print full command execution logs.

./roadie-local --debug start

The debug flag is especially helpful when troubleshooting deployment issues on different environments like EC2 instances, as it shows the complete Docker Compose command execution output.
