# GtS CLI Tool

GoToSocial compiles to an executable binary.

The standard way of using this binary is to run a server with the `gotosocial server start` command.

However, this binary can also be used as an admin tool, and for debugging.

Here's the full output of `gotosocial --help`, without the big list of global config options.

```text
GoToSocial - a fediverse social media server

For help, see: https://docs.gotosocial.org.

Code: https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial

Usage:
  gotosocial [command]

Available Commands:
  admin       gotosocial admin-related tasks
  completion  generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell
  debug       gotosocial debug-related tasks
  help        Help about any command
  server      gotosocial server-related tasks
  testrig     gotosocial testrig-related tasks
```

Under `Available Commands`, you can see the standard `server` command. But there are also commands doing admin and testing etc, which will be explained in this document.

**Please note -- for all of these commands, you will still need to set the global options correctly so that the CLI tool knows how eg., how to connect to your database, which database to use, which host and account domain to use etc.**

You can set these options using environment variables, passing them as CLI flags (eg., `gotosocial [commands] --host example.org`), or by just pointing the CLI tool towards your config file (eg., `gotosocial  [commands] --config-path ./config.yaml`).
