Hello

Quick command to validate your CLI installation, Lager Box connection, and display the box version.

Syntax

lager hello [OPTIONS]

Options

Option	Description
`--box TEXT`	Lager Box name or IP address
`--help`	Show help message and exit

Usage

# Basic hello command
lager hello

# Hello with specific Lager Box
lager hello --box my-lager-box

# Hello with Lager Box IP
lager hello --box <BOX_IP>

Output

The hello command prints the box name, its IP address, the box version, and a success line:

$ lager hello --box my-lager-box

Box: my-lager-box
IP: 100.64.1.42
Version: 0.47.0 (v0.47.0@1fbc4c39fce62f1041d439d1b164bbf7b6f6ad3a)

my-lager-box is online and responding!

The value in brackets is the ref that the box runs, as <ref>@<commit>. A box deployed from a branch or a commit adds -- not a release build:

Version: 0.47.0 (main@5d84c68612384eed2854638c1e0941a4ff8b7893 -- not a release build)

A box that predates the ref record shows only the version. If the box reports no version, the line reads Version: Unknown. If the box answers /hello with an error, the last line reads my-lager-box responded with HTTP <code>.

Examples

# Verify connectivity after initial setup
lager hello --box my-lager-box

# Quick check that default box is reachable
lager defaults add --box my-lager-box
lager hello

# Check version of a specific box
lager hello --box my-lager-box

Notes

Simple validation command to test CLI installation
Verifies connectivity to the Lager Box
Reads the version and ref from the box API on port 9000 (/status), then checks /hello
Useful for troubleshooting connection issues
No arguments required when a default box is set
Returns a success message when the connection works
