The first release (v1.0) of the Forge CLI contains around thirty commands, including initiating deployments, viewing application logs, configuring SSH key authentication, and more. In this article, we are going to highlight some of these new commands. And, of course, you may refer to the official documentation for more details.

Initiating Deployments

One of the primary features of Laravel Forge is deployments, and now those may be initiated via the Forge CLI using the deploy command:

You may also view site logs directly from the command-line. To do so, use the site:logs command:

Be sure to check out the official Forge CLI documentation for more details. There you will find a listing of all of the available commands and options. We hope you enjoy this new command-line tool!

If you don’t have a Forge account, now is a great time to sign up! Forge allows you to painlessly create and manage PHP servers which include MySQL, Redis, Memcached, database backups, and everything else you need to run robust, modern Laravel applications.
