The earthly command

earthly

Synopsis

Target form

earthly [options...] <target-ref> [build-args...]

Artifact form

earthly [options...] --artifact|-a <target-ref>/<artifact-path> [<dest-path>] [build-args...]

Image form

earthly [options...] --image <target-ref> [build-args...]

Description

The earthly command executes a build referenced by <target-ref> (target form and image form) or <artifact-ref> (artifact form). In the target form, the referenced target and its dependencies are built. In the artifact form, the referenced artifact and its dependencies are built, but only the specified artifact is output. The output path of the artifact can be optionally overridden by <dest-path>. In the image form, the image produced by the referenced target and its dependencies are built, but only the specified image is output.

If a BuildKit daemon has not already been started, and the option --buildkit-host is not specified, this command also starts up a container named earthly-buildkitd to act as a build daemon.

The execution has four phases:

Init
Build
Push (optional - disabled by default)
Local output (optional - enabled by default)

During the init phase the configuration is interpreted and the BuildKit daemon is started (if applicable). During the build phase, the referenced target and all its direct or indirect dependencies are executed. During the push phase, when enabled, Earthly performs image pushes and it also runs RUN --push commands. During the local output phase, all applicable artifacts with an AS LOCAL specification are written to the specified output location, and all applicable docker images are loaded onto the host's docker daemon.

If the build phase does not succeed, no output is produced and no push instruction is executed. In this case, the command exits with a non-zero exit code.

Target and Artifact References

The <target-ref> can reference both local and remote targets.

Local Reference

+<target-name> will reference a target in the local Earthfile in the current directory.

<local-path>+<target-name> will reference a local Earthfile in a different directory as specified by <local-path>, which must start with ./, ../, or /.

Remote Reference

<gitvendor>/<namespace>/<project>/path/in/project[:some-tag]+<target-name> will access a remote git repository.

Artifact Reference

The <artifact-ref> can reference artifacts built by targets. <target-ref>/<artifact-path> will reference a build target's artifact.

Examples

See the importing guide for more details and examples.

Build args

Synopsis:

Target form earthly <target-ref> [--<build-arg-key>=<build-arg-value>...]
Artifact form earthly --artifact <target-ref>/<artifact-path> <dest-path> [--<build-arg-key>=<build-arg-value>...]
Image form earthly --image <target-ref> [--<build-arg-key>=<build-arg-value>...]

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_BUILD_ARGS="<build-arg-key>=<build-arg-value>,<build-arg-key>=<build-arg-value>,...".

Build arg overrides may be specified as part of the Earthly command. The value of the build arg <build-arg-key> is set to <build-arg-value>.

In the target and image forms the build args are passed after the target reference. For example earthly +some-target --NAME=john --SPECIES=human. In the artifact form, the build args are passed immediately after the artifact reference, however they are surrounded by parenthesis, similar to a COPY command. For example earthly --artifact +some-target/some-artifact ./dest/path --NAME=john --SPECIES=human.

The build arg overrides only apply to the target being called directly and any other target referenced as part of the same Earthfile. Build arg overrides, will not apply to targets referenced from other directories or other repositories.

Storing values in the .arg File

Build args can also be specified using a .arg file, relative to the current working directory where earthly is executed from, using the syntax:

<NAME_OF_BUILD_ARG>=<value>
...

Each variable must be specified on a separate line, without any surrounding quotes. If quotes are included, they will become part of the value. Lines beginning with # are treated as comments. Blank lines are allowed. Here is a simple example:

# an example build arg
MY_SETTING=a setting which contains spaces

Note

The directory used for loading the .arg file is the directory where earthly is called from and not necessarily the directory where the Earthfile is located in.

Important

The .arg file is meant for settings which are specific to the local environment the build executes in. These settings may cause inconsistencies in the way the build executes on different systems, leading to builds that are difficult to reproduce. Keep the contents of .arg files to a minimum to avoid such issues.

Additional Information

For more information about build args see the ARG Earthfile command, and the build args guide.

Environment Variables and .env File

Flag options can either be set on the command line, or by using an equivalent environment variable, as specified under the options section.

It is also possible to set these flag options in an .env file, relative to the current working directory where earthly is executed from, using the syntax:

<NAME_OF_ENV_VAR>=<value>
...

# Settings
EARTHLY_ALLOW_PRIVILEGED=true
EARTHLY_VERBOSE=true

Global Options

--help

Prints help information about earthly.

Synopsis

```
earthly --help
```
```
earthly <command> --help
```

--config <path>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_CONFIG=<path>.

Overrides the earthly configuration file, defaults to ~/.earthly/config.yml.

--installation-name <name>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_INSTALLATION_NAME=<name>.

Overrides the Earthly installation name. The installation name is used for the BuildKit Daemon name, the cache volume name, the configuration directory (~/.<installation-name>) and for the ports used by BuildKit. Using multiple installation names on the same system allows Earthly to run as multiple isolated instances, each with its own configuration, cache and daemon. Defaults to earthly.

--ssh-auth-sock <path-to-sock>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_SSH_AUTH_SOCK=<path-to-sock>.

Sets the path to the SSH agent sock, which can be used for SSH authentication. SSH authentication is used by Earthly in order to perform git clone's underneath.

On Linux systems, this setting defaults to the value of the env var $SSH_AUTH_SOCK. On most systems, the env var SSH_AUTH_SOCK env var is already set if an SSH agent is running.

On Mac systems, this setting defaults to /run/host-services/ssh-auth.sock to match recommendation in the official Docker documentation.

For more information see the Authentication page.

--auth-token <value>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_TOKEN=<value>.

Force Earthly account login to authenticate with supplied token.

--verbose

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_VERBOSE=1.

Enables verbose logging.

--git-username <git-user> (deprecated)

Also available as an env var setting: GIT_USERNAME=<git-user>.

This option is now deprecated. Please use the configuration file instead.

--git-password <git-pass> (deprecated)

Also available as an env var setting: GIT_PASSWORD=<git-pass>.

This option is now deprecated. Please use the configuration file instead.

--git-url-instead-of <git-instead-of> (obsolete)

Also used to be available as an env var setting: GIT_URL_INSTEAD_OF=<git-instead-of>.

This option is now obsolete. By default, earthly will automatically switch from ssh to HTTPS when no keys are found or the ssh-agent isn't running. Please use the configuration file to override the default behavior.

Build Options

Build options are specific to executing Earthly builds; they are simply listed in this section for readability, and can be supplied as global options.

--secret|-s <secret-id>[=<value>]

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_SECRETS="<secret-id>=<value>,<secret-id>=<value>,...".

Passes a secret with ID <secret-id> to the build environments. If <value> is not specified, then the value becomes the value of the environment variable with the same name as <secret-id>.

The secret can be referenced within Earthfile recipes as RUN --secret <arbitrary-env-var-name>=<secret-id>. For more information see the RUN --secret Earthfile command.

Secrets can also be stored in a .secret file using the same syntax as an .arg file; an example is given under the secrets guide.

--secret-file <secret-id>=<path>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_SECRET_FILES="<secret-id>=<path>,<secret-id>=<path>,...".

Loads the contents of a file located at <path> into a secret with ID <secret-id> for use within the build environments.

The secret can be referenced within Earthfile recipes as RUN --secret <arbitrary-env-var-name>=<secret-id>. For more information see the RUN --secret Earthfile command.

--push

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_PUSH=true.

Instructs Earthly to push any docker images declared with the --push flag to remote docker registries and to run any RUN --push commands. For more information see the SAVE IMAGE Earthfile command and the RUN --push Earthfile command.

Pushing only happens during the output phase, and only if the build has succeeded.

--no-output

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_NO_OUTPUT=true.

Instructs Earthly not to output any images or artifacts. This option cannot be used with the artifact form or the image form.

--output

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_OUTPUT=true.

Allow artifacts or images to be output, even when running under --ci mode.

--no-cache

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_NO_CACHE=true.

Instructs Earthly to ignore any cache when building. It does, however, continue to store new cache formed as part of the build (to be possibly used on future invocations).

--auto-skip (experimental)

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_AUTO_SKIP=true.

Instructs Earthly to skip any targets that have not changed from a previous build. For more information see the auto-skip guide.

--allow-privileged|-P

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_ALLOW_PRIVILEGED=true.

Permits the build to use the --privileged flag in RUN commands. For more information see the RUN --privileged command.

--ci

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_CI=true

In target mode, this option is an alias for

--no-output --strict

In artifact and image modes , this option is an alias for

--strict

--platform <platform>

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_PLATFORMS=<platform>.

Sets the platform to build for.

Note

It is not yet possible to specify multiple platforms through this flag. You may, however, use a wrapping target and a BUILD command in your Earthfile:

build-all-platforms:
  BUILD --platform=linux/amd64 --platform=linux/arm/v7 +build

build:
  ...

--build-arg <key>[=<value>] (deprecated)

This option has been deprecated in favor of the new build arg syntax earthly <target-ref> --<key>=<value>.

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_BUILD_ARGS="<key>=<value>,<key>=<value>,...".

Overrides the value of the build arg <key>. If <value> is not specified, then the value becomes the value of the environment variable with the same name as <key>. For more information see the ARG Earthfile command.

--interactive|-i

Also available as an env var setting: EARTHLY_INTERACTIVE=true.

Enable interactive debugging mode. By default when a RUN command fails, earthly will display the error and exit. If the interactive mode is enabled and an error occurs, an interactive shell is presented which can be used for investigating the error interactively. Due to technical limitations, only a single interactive shell can be used on the system at any given time.

--strict

Disallow usage of features that may create unrepeatable builds.

Log formatting options

These options can only be set via environment variables, and have no command line equivalent.

Variable

Usage

NO_COLOR

NO_COLOR=1 disables the use of color.

FORCE_COLOR

FORCE_COLOR=1 forces the use of color.

EARTHLY_TARGET_PADDING

EARTHLY_TARGET_PADDING=n will set the column to the width of n characters. If a name is longer than n, its path will be truncated and remaining extra length will cause the column to go ragged.

EARTHLY_FULL_TARGET

EARTHLY_FULL_TARGET=1 will always print the full target name, and leave the target name column ragged.

earthly --version

Synopsis

```
earthly --version
```

Description

Prints version information about earthly.

earthly ls

Synopsis

```
earthly ls [<earthfile-ref>]
```

Description

Prints all targets in an Earthfile in a project.

Options

--args

Show arguments (ARG statements) in the targets.

--long

Show full, canonical target references (includes the project part of the reference, if applicable).

earthly doc

Synopsis

earthly doc [<earthfile-ref>[+<target-ref>]]

Description

Prints documentation comments for documented targets in an Earthfile in a project. Documentation on a target is any comment block that ends on the line immediately above the target definition and begins with the name of the target.

Examples

Given the following Earthfile:

VERSION 0.8
FROM golang:1.19-alpine3.15

deps:
    COPY go.mod go.sum .
    RUN go mod download

# build runs 'go build' and saves the artifact locally.
build:
    FROM +deps
    COPY . .
    ARG output=./build/something
    RUN go build -o /bin/something
    SAVE ARTIFACT /bin/something AS LOCAL $output

# tidy runs 'go mod tidy' and saves go.mod/go.sum locally.
tidy:
    FROM +deps
    COPY . .
    RUN go mod tidy
    SAVE ARTIFACT go.mod AS LOCAL go.mod
    SAVE ARTIFACT go.sum AS LOCAL go.sum

Print the doc comments for all documented targets:

$ earthly doc
TARGETS:
  +build
    build runs 'go build' and saves the artifact locally.
  +tidy
    tidy runs 'go mod tidy' and saves go.mod/go.sum locally.

Note that, unlike earthly ls, earthly doc does not mention the deps target. Since it has no documentation, the deps target is not included in the output.

Print the doc comments for a specific target:

$ earthly doc +build
+build
  build runs 'go build' and saves the artifact locally.

earthly prune

Synopsis

# Standard form
earthly [options] prune (--all|-a)

# Reset form
earthly [options] prune --reset

Description

The command earthly prune eliminates the Earthly cache.

In standard form (default) it issues a prune command to the BuildKit daemon.

In reset form it restarts the BuildKit daemon, instructing it to completely delete the cache directory on startup, thus forcing it to start from scratch.

Options

--all|-a

Instructs earthly to issue a "prune all" command to the BuildKit daemon.

--reset

Restarts the BuildKit daemon and completely resets the cache directory.

--age

Prunes cache older than the specified duration. Accepts a duration string, which is a sequence of decimal numbers, each with optional fraction and a unit suffix, such as 300ms. Valid time units are ns, us, ms, s, m, h.

--size

Prunes cache to specified size, starting with the oldest cache. It will eliminate cache until it reaches or exceeds the target size.

earthly config

Synopsis

# Set key value in your earthly config

earthly [options] config [key] [value]

Description

Manipulates values in ~/.earthly/config.yml. It does its best to preserve existing formatting and comments. [value] must be a valid YAML literal for the given [key].

Options

--dry-run

Prints the changed config file to the console instead of writing it to file

Examples

Set your cache size:

earthly config global.cache_size_mb 1234

Set additional BuildKit args, using a YAML array:

earthly config global.buildkit_additional_args ['userns', '--host']

Set a key containing a period:

earthly config git."example.com".password hunter2

Set up a whole custom git repository for a server called example.com, using a single-line YAML literal:

which stores git repos under /var/git/repos/name-of-repo.git
allows access over ssh
using port 2222
sets the username to git
is recognized to earthly as example.com/name-of-repo

config git "{example: {pattern: 'example.com/([^/]+)', substitute: 'ssh://[email protected]:2222/var/git/repos/\$1.git', auth: ssh, user: git}}"

The above command yields the following config file:

git:
    example:
        pattern: example.com/([^/]+)
        substitute: ssh://[email protected]:2222/var/git/repos/$1.git
        auth: ssh

The command earthly docker-build builds a docker image from a Dockerfile instead of an Earthfile. The <build-context-dir> is the path where the Dockerfile build context exists. By default, it is assumed that a file named Dockerfile exists in that directory.

Just like a regular build, docker-build can be used with a satellite. For example:

earthly docker-build --sat my-satellite --tag my-image:latest .

For more information see the Using Satellites guide.

Additionally, all other build options are supported when using docker-build. For more information see build-options.

Examples

Build a dockerfile within the context of the myDockerfiles directory.

earthly docker-build --dockerfile Dockerfile ./myDockerfiles

Push an image built from your Dockerfile built for linux/arm64

earthly docker-build --dockerfile Dockerfile --platform linux/arm64 --tag {DOCKER_TAG} --push ./myDockerfiles

Options

--dockerfile <dockerfile-path>

Specify an alternative Dockerfile to use.

--tag=<image-tag>

Set the image name and tag to use. This option can be repeated to provide the built image multiple tags.

--target=<target-name>

Specifies the target to build in a multi-target Dockerfile.

--platform <platform1[,platform2,...]>

Sets the platform to build for.

Note

Unlike a regular build command, it is possible to specify multiple platforms through this option.
