# Pinata Go CLI
# Pinata Files CLI

Welcome to the Pinata Go CLI! This is still in active development so please let us know if you have any questions! :)

## Installation

> Note - If you are on Windows please use WSL when installing, as the current implementation will not work natively on Windows OS.
We are currently working on the build flow for binaries to make installation easier, but for now we recommend building from source.

To do this make sure you have [Go](https://go.dev/) installed on your computer and the following command returns a version:

```shell
go version
```

Then paste and run the following into your terminal:

```shell
git clone https://github.com/PinataCloud/pinata-go-cli && cd pinata-go-cli && go install .
```

## Usage

The Pinata CLI is equipped with the majortiry of features on the Pinata API.

### `auth` - Authentication

With the CLI installed you will first need to authenticate it with your [Pinata JWT](https://docs.pinata.cloud/docs/api-keys)

```shell
pinata auth <your-jwt>
```

### `upload` - Uploads

After authentication you can now upload using the `upload` command or `u` for short, then pass in the path to the file or folder you want to upload.

```shell
pinata upload ~/Pictures/somefolder/image.png
```

The following flags are also available to set the name or CID version of the upload.

```shell
--version value, -v value Set desired CID version to either 0 or 1. Default is 1. (default: 1)
--name value, -n value Add a name for the file you are uploading. By default it will use the filename on your system. (default: "nil")
--cid-only Use if you only want the CID returned after an upload (default: false)

```
### `list` - List Files
You can list files with the `list` command or the alias `l`. The results are printed in raw JSON to help increase composability.
```shell
pinata list
```
By default it will retrieve the 10 latest files, but with the flags below you can get more results or fine tune your search.
```shell
--cid value, -c value Search files by CID (default: "null")
--amount value, -a value The number of files you would like to return, default 10 max 1000 (default: "10")
--name value, -n value The name of the file (default: "null")
--status value, -s value Status of the file. Options are 'pinned', 'unpinned', or 'all'. Default: 'pinned' (default: "pinned")
--pageOffset value, -p value Allows you to paginate through files. If your file amount is 10, then you could set the pageOffset to '10' to see the next 10 files. (default: "null")
```
### `delete` - Delete Files
If you ever need to you can delete a file by CID using the `delete` command or alias `d` followed by the file CID.
```shell
pinata delete QmVLwvmGehsrNEvhcCnnsw5RQNseohgEkFNN1848zNzdng
```
### `pin` - Pin by CID
Separate from the `upload` command which uploads files from your machine to Pinata, you can also pin a file already on the IPFS network by using the `pin` command or alias `p` followed by the CID. This will start a pin by CID request which will go into a queue.
```shell
pinata pin QmVLwvmGehsrNEvhcCnnsw5RQNseohgEkFNN1848zNzdng
```
To check the queue use the `request` command.
### `requests` - Pin by CID Requests
As mentioned in the `pin` command, when you submit an existing CID on IPFS to be pinned to your Pinata account, it goes into a request queue. From here it will go through multiple status'. For more info on these please consult the [documentation](https://docs.pinata.cloud/reference/get_pinning-pinjobs).
```shell
pinata requests
```
You can use flags to help filter requests as well.
```shell
--cid value, -c value Search pin by CID requests by CID (default: "null")
--status value, -s value Search by status for pin by CID requests. See https://docs.pinata.cloud/reference/get_pinning-pinjobs for more info. (default: "null")
--pageOffset value, -p value Allows you to paginate through requests by number of requests. (default: "null")
```
