Command-line transfer client

The public CLI is intentionally limited to two operations:

• download — download repository content into a local workspace;
• upload — upload local changes as a commit.

Full interactive repository and workspace operations belong in the Desktop Client.

Help

digivc --help
digivc download --help
digivc upload --help

Language and output format can be selected:

digivc --language en --format text download --help
digivc --format json upload --help

Full download

digivc download \
  digivc://digivc.company.example/ERP/Server \
  --to "$HOME/work/erp-server" \
  --username maria

The password is entered through a secure prompt.

Partial download

digivc download \
  digivc://digivc.company.example/ERP/Server \
  /backend/api /database/sql \
  --to "$HOME/work/erp-partial" \
  --username maria

Upload

Run from the workspace or pass a path:

digivc upload "$HOME/work/erp-server" \
  -m "Add input validation" \
  --username maria

Password file for automation

printf '%s\n' 'YOUR_PASSWORD' > "$HOME/.digivc-password"
chmod 600 "$HOME/.digivc-password"

digivc upload "$HOME/work/erp-server" \
  -m "Nightly controlled upload" \
  --username automation \
  --password-file "$HOME/.digivc-password"

The password file must:

• be a regular file, not a symlink;
• be owned by the current OS user;
• not be accessible by group or other users;
• not be empty.

Where possible, use a dedicated automation account with minimum permissions instead of a personal administrator account.

Exit and errors

The CLI displays a correlation ID for server errors. Keep it so an administrator can locate the corresponding audit/log event.

If the account requires a password change, complete it in WEB/Admin first.
