Command line interface
You can interact with Vikunja using its cli interface.
The following commands are available:
If you don't specify a command, the web command will be executed.
All commands use the same standard [config file]({{< ref "../setup/config.md">}}).
Using the cli in docker
When running Vikunja in docker, you'll need to execute all commands in the vikunja container.
Instead of running the vikunja binary directly, run it like this:
docker exec <name of the vikunja container> /app/vikunja/vikunja <subcommand>
If you need to run a bunch of Vikunja commands, you can also create a shell alias for it:
alias vikunja-docker='docker exec <name of the vikunja container> /app/vikunja/vikunja'
Then use it as vikunja-docker <subcommand>.
