This guide introduces how to inspect and modify the configurations of Cobo CLI. The configurations are used by various Cobo CLI commands, including cobo env, cobo auth, and cobo keys. By default, Cobo CLI stores its configurations in your home directory (~/.cobo/config.toml). You can override this location by using the --config-file <path> option. For more information about this option, see Global options.

​
Configuration commands

​
Set configuration values

To set a configuration value, use the following command: 
cobo config set <key> <value>

​
Retrieve configuration values

To retrieve a configuration value, use the following command: 
cobo config get <key>
If the configuration key exists, it will display the value. Otherwise, it will inform you that the configuration was not found.

​
List all configurations

To see all your current configuration settings, use the list subcommand: 
cobo config list
This will display all key-value pairs in your configuration.

​
Delete configuration Values

To remove a configuration value, use the delete subcommand: 
cobo config delete <key>

​
Important configurations

While you can store any custom configuration values, there are some key settings that Cobo CLI uses:

​
Environment

You can set the environment using the cobo config set environment <environment> command: 
cobo config set environment dev
Cobo CLI supports two environments:
  • dev: For development purposes
  • prod: For production use
This command has the same effect as running cobo env dev.

​
Authentication method

You can set the authentication method using the cobo config set auth_method <method> command: 
cobo config set auth_method apikey
Cobo CLI supports three authentication methods:
  • apikey: Authenticate with an API key.
  • user: Authenticate with your Cobo Portal account.
  • org: Authenticate with an Org Access Token.
This command has the same effect as running cobo auth apikey.
