## The official CLI interface for gitea

Tea is a command line tool for interacting on one or more Gitea instances.
It uses [code.gitea.io/sdk](https://code.gitea.io/sdk) and interacts with the Gitea API

For a feature comparison with other git forge CLIs see [here](./FEATURE-COMPARISON.md).

## Installation

You can use the prebuilt binaries from [dl.gitea.io](https://dl.gitea.io/tea/)

To install from source, go 1.13 or newer is required:

```sh
go get code.gitea.io/tea
go install code.gitea.io/tea
```

If you have `brew` installed, you can install `tea` via:

```sh
brew tap gitea/tap https://gitea.com/gitea/homebrew-gitea
brew install tea
```

Distribution packages exist for: **alpinelinux ([tea](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=tea&branch=edge))** and **archlinux ([gitea-tea](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gitea-tea))**

## Usage

First of all, you have to create a token on your `personal settings -> application` page of your gitea instance.
Use this token to login with `tea`:

```sh
tea login add --name=try --url=https://try.gitea.io --token=xxxxxx
```

Now you can use the following `tea` subcommands.
Detailed usage information is available via `tea <command> --help`.

```none
login            Log in to a Gitea server
logout           Log out from a Gitea server
