gdcloud topic offline-help

NAME

gdcloud topic offline-help - Supplementary help for gdcloud CLI offline help.

DESCRIPTION

There are multiple ways to access gdcloud CLI command help. * Add the --help flag to any command. This renders a help document in a terminal pager. The document is always up-to-date with the command because it is generated by collating help text from the command itself. * Use the gdcloud topic command to view a particular feature's supplementary help text. * Use the static HTML documents provided in the downloaded CLI bundle. All the methods are available after the gdcloud CLI installation.

Offline HTML Documents

The offline HTML documents are in a tar file inside the data/offline-help/docs/ folder. To access these documents, the tar file must be extracted; the directory it is extracted to depends on the user. If the CLI tar file can't be found, then it can be downloaded from the GDC website. The top-level file for these static HTML documents is the gdch.html file. If the tar file is extracted in the HOME directory, then the gdch.html file will be located at $HOME/static/docs/distributed-cloud/hosted/docs/latest/.
