Create a project
This guide shows you how to create a project using the evroc CLI.
Prerequisites
Before creating a project, you need:
- The evroc CLI installed and configured. See Install the evroc CLI
- Admin permissions in your organization
Create a project
Create a project with a unique identifier and optional display name:
evroc iam project create my-project --name "My Project"
CLI parameters
<project_id>- (Required) Unique identifier for the project. Must be lowercase alphanumeric with hyphens, starting and ending with an alphanumeric character. Maximum 63 characters.--name- (Optional) Human-readable display name. Defaults to the project ID if not specified.
Examples
Create a project for development:
evroc iam project create dev --name "Development"
Create a project for a specific team:
evroc iam project create data-platform --name "Data Platform Team"
Verify the project
List your projects to confirm the new project was created:
evroc iam project list
# dev
# data-platform
Get details for a specific project:
evroc iam project get my-project
Set as current project
Set the new project as your current working project for CLI operations:
evroc config set-project my-project
All subsequent CLI commands operate on this project until you switch to another.
Update a project
Update the project's display name:
evroc iam project update my-project --name "New Project Name"
Delete a project
Delete a project when it's no longer needed:
evroc iam project delete my-project
Warning: Deleting a project removes all resources within it. This action can't be undone.
Use the --force flag to skip the confirmation prompt:
evroc iam project delete my-project --force
