README.md

Command line reference

The Ark client provides a CLI that allows you to initiate ad-hoc backups, scheduled backups, or restores.

The files in the CLI reference directory in the repository enumerate each of the possible ark commands and their flags. This information is available in the CLI, using the --help flag.

Running the client

We recommend that you download a pre-built release, but you can also build and run the ark executable.

Kubernetes cluster credentials

In general, Ark will search for your cluster credentials in the following order:

  • --kubeconfig command line flag
  • $KUBECONFIG environment variable
  • In-cluster credentials--this only works when you are running Ark in a pod
