How to use interactive mode in the Nebius AI Cloud CLI

​

Creating resources interactively

1. Metadata parameters.
2. Required parameters.
3. Optional parameters.

• For string parameters, specify the string directly or use the contents of a file if the string is too long. For example:
  cloud-init-user-data (string): file: ./user-data.txt
  
• For the oneof, enum and bool parameters, the CLI prompts you to select one of the supported values.

1. Create a boot disk.
2. Run the VM creation command:
   nebius compute instance create --interactive
   
   Example session:
   ...
   parent-id (required) (string): project-***
   Human readable name for the resource.
   name (string): example-vm
   Labels associated with the resource.
   labels (map) string=string[,string=string]:
   
   Populate required fields
   resources-platform (required) (string): gpu-l40s-d
   resources-preset (required) (string): 1gpu-16vcpu-96gb
   network-interfaces-0-subnet-id (required) (string): vpcsubnet-***
   network-interfaces-0-name (required) (string): eth0
   Do you want to populate the network-interfaces-0-ip-address message ? [Y/n]: y
   network-interfaces-0-ip-address-allocation-id (string): vpcallocation-***
   Do you want to populate the network-interfaces-0-public-ip-address message ? [Y/n]: y
   network-interfaces-0-public-ip-address-allocation-id (string): vpcallocation-***
   network-interfaces-0-public-ip-address-static (bool): true
   Do you want to populate the network-interfaces-0-aliases message ? [Y/n]: n
   Do you want to populate the network-interfaces-0-security-groups message ? [Y/n]: n
   Add another entry to the network-interfaces list? [Y/n]: n
   
   Do you want to populate the optional fields? [y/N]: y
   ...
   Do you want to populate the boot-disk message ? [Y/n]: y
   boot-disk-attach-mode (required) (enum): READ_WRITE
   Select one of (boot-disk-type (required)): boot-disk-existing-disk (message)
   Do you want to populate the boot-disk-existing-disk message ? [Y/n]: y
   boot-disk-existing-disk-id (required) (string): computedisk-***
   boot-disk-device-id (string): dev-1
   ...
   
   First, set the metadata parameters, such as parent-id and name. Then, set the required parameters, such as resources-platform and resources-preset. Finally, set the optional parameters, such as boot-disk-attach-mode and boot-disk-existing-disk-id. Although the boot disk parameters are marked as optional, they still require input for the command to succeed.
   To create a VM, you can either create a boot disk in advance and then set it in the boot-disk-existing-disk configuration. Alternatively, use the boot-disk-managed-disk configuration, and create the boot disk and the VM simultaneously.
   After you fill in the parameters, the CLI shows the full resource and lets you apply it.

Listing resources interactively

• Use the keyboard to switch between pages.
• Use the keyboard or mouse to scroll through the current page.
