What is it?

ovhcloud is the official command-line interface for OVHcloud. It exposes commands for most OVHcloud product families, from VPS, Bare Metal and domains to Public Cloud instances, Managed Kubernetes, databases, object storage and IAM. Output can be shown as a table, JSON, YAML, or a custom gval expression, which makes it usable both for quick lookups and for scripts and CI/CD pipelines.

Authentication works through an interactive login that creates API credentials, a standard ovh.conf file, or environment variables. Multiple accounts can be managed with named profiles. A global --debug flag logs HTTP request details, and --ignore-errors lets batch runs continue past non-fatal API errors.

The project also includes an experimental terminal UI (`ovhcloud browser`) that covers Public Cloud resources, and shell completion for Bash, Zsh, Fish and PowerShell. It is distributed as a binary, Docker image, Homebrew cask, or Go module.
