# Datadog CLI

The Datadog CLI lets you query logs from your terminal. If you're querying aggregated logs, this also gives you the option to disaggregate them into individual log lines.

## setup

```sh
git clone git@github.com:nimbushq/dd-cli.git
cd dd-cli
yarn && yarn build
npm link
```

## logs

```sh
nimbus logs

Search across dd logs. The following environmental variables need to be set in
order to run this command: DD_SITE, DD_API_KEY, DD_APP_KEY

Options:
      --version                             Show version number        [boolean]
      --help                                Show help                  [boolean]
  -q, --query                               dd log query     [string] [required]
  -f, --from                                time in the following format:
                                            2024-02-14T11:35:00-08:00
                                                             [string] [required]
      --to, --t, desc: "time in the
      following format:
      2024-02-14T11:35:00-08:00"                             [string] [required]
  -i, --indexes                             log indexes to search
                                                     [array] [default: ["main"]]
  -d, --disaggregate                        disaggregate aggregated logs
                                                                       [boolean]
```

## Usage

Replace env variables with your org specific values

```sh
# regular query
env DD_SITE="***" DD_API_KEY="***" DD_APP_KEY="***" dd-cli logs -q "service:elb " -f "2024-02-14T11:35:00-08:00" -t "2024-02-14T11:38:00-08:00"

# query with log disaggregation
env DD_SITE="***" DD_API_KEY="***" DD_APP_KEY="***" dd-cli logs -q "service:elb " -f "2024-02-14T11:35:00-08:00" -t "2024-02-14T11:38:00-08:00" -d
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nimbus.dev/preview-features/integrations.datadog.cli.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
