DiceDB CLI

This is a command line interface for DiceDB.

Get Started

Using cURL

The best way to connect to DiceDB is using DiceDB CLI and you can install it by running the following command

$ sudo su
$ curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DiceDB/dicedb-cli/refs/heads/master/install.sh | sh

If you are working on unsupported OS (as per above script), you can always follow the installation instructions mentioned in the dicedb/cli repository.

Building from source

$ git clone https://github.com/DiceDB/dicedb-cli
$ cd dicedb-cli
$ make build

The above command will create a binary dicedb-cli. Execute the binary will start the CLI and will try to connect to the DiceDB server.

Usage

Run the executable to start the interactive prompt (REPL)

$ dicedb-cli

You should see

dicedb (localhost:7379)>

To connect to some other host or port, you can pass the flags --host and --port with apt parameters. You can also get all available parameters by firing

$ dicedb-cli --help

Firing commands

You can execute any DiceDB command directly:

dicedb (localhost:7379)> SET k1 v1
OK
dicedb (localhost:7379)> GET k1
"v1"
dicedb (localhost:7379)> DEL k1
1

You can find all available commands at dicedb.io/docs.
