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/
.
