Casdoor CLI

Casdoor CLI is the official command-line interface for Casdoor, providing a powerful and intuitive way to manage your Casdoor identity and access management system directly from the terminal.

GitHub repository: https://github.com/casdoor/casdoor-cli

Features​

OAuth2 Browser-Based Authentication​

The CLI uses a secure browser-based OAuth2 flow for authentication, ensuring your credentials are protected through Casdoor's standard authentication mechanism.

Secure Token Storage​

Credentials are safely stored using your system's keyring interface (GNOME Keyring on Linux, Keychain on macOS), ensuring tokens never touch disk in plaintext.

User Management​

Create, update, and delete users with ease directly from the command line.

Permission Management​

Control user permissions through Casdoor's group feature with built-in roles:

  • lector: Read-only access
  • editor: Can create users, with limited modification rights
  • administrator: Full control over user creation, modification, and deletion

Group Management​

Create, modify, and delete user groups to organize users and manage permissions efficiently.

Installation​

Prerequisites​

  • Go 1.22.0 or higher
  • macOS or Linux operating system
  • GNOME Keyring (Linux) or Keychain (macOS) for secure credential storage
주의

Platform Support: Currently supports macOS and Linux (tested on Debian 12 and macOS Sonoma). Windows support via WSL is not available as the CLI requires GNOME's Secret Service DBus interface (GNOME Keyring) for secure credential storage.

macOS​

make build TARGET_OS=darwin && make install TARGET_OS=darwin

Linux​

make build TARGET_OS=linux && make install TARGET_OS=linux

Configure Your Shell​

After installation, add casdoor-cli to your PATH:

For Bash users:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc

For Zsh users:

echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc

Verify the installation:

casdoor --help

Configuration​

Casdoor Server Setup​

To use the CLI, you need a configured Casdoor application. You have two options:

  1. Using the provided bootstrap data: An init_data.json file is included in the repository to quickly bootstrap Casdoor's configuration. Refer to the Data Initialization documentation for initialization instructions.

  2. Manual configuration: Create an application directly in your Casdoor admin panel and configure it according to your requirements.

CLI Configuration​

On first launch, casdoor-cli will prompt you to provide a config.yaml file containing your Casdoor connection details. See the included config.yaml.example file in the repository for reference.

Required configuration fields:

application_name: your-app-name
casdoor_endpoint: https://your-casdoor-instance.com
certificate: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  Your certificate content here
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
client_id: your-client-id
client_secret: your-client-secret
organization_name: your-organization
redirect_uri: http://localhost:9000/callback

Your configuration will be securely stored in ~/.casdoor-cli/config.yaml (base64 encoded) for subsequent use.
