About:
Drone CLI is the official command-line interface for interacting with the Drone continuous integration and delivery platform. It allows developers to manage pipelines, trigger builds, and retrieve logs directly from the terminal. This tool is essential for automating CI/CD workflows and integrating Drone operations into local development scripts.
Key Features:
  • Manage CI/CD pipelines and builds from the terminal
  • Trigger builds and deployments programmatically
  • Retrieve build logs and status reports
  • Native integration with Drone server authentication
Use Cases:
  • Automating build triggers in local development scripts
  • Debugging CI pipeline failures by fetching logs locally
  • Managing repository settings and secrets via CLI
Alternatives:
  • gh-cli – GitHub's official CLI focuses on repository management, whereas Drone CLI is specialized for CI/CD pipeline operations.
  • circleci-cli – Similar functionality for CircleCI, but Drone CLI is specifically designed for the Drone ecosystem.
