lamin_cli

What it is and what it does

Lamin CLI is a command-line tool for interacting with database instances, exposing the `lamin` command for file and data operations. It allows users to save, retrieve, and manage files within a workspace using simple command-line operations without writing code directly.

The package depends only on rich-click for its CLI interface, making it lightweight to install. It is actively maintained with a recent release. The tool is intended for users who want to programmatically or interactively manage data stored in a workspace from the command line.

Use it for:

• Save CSV or tabular data files to a workspace with a versioned key for reproducible data management.
• Retrieve and list files stored in a workspace from the command line during data pipeline workflows.
• Integrate file operations into shell scripts or CI/CD pipelines for automated data versioning.
• Manage datasets and results in a centralized workspace via CLI without writing Python code.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Provides a command-line interface for managing database instances, enabling operations like saving and retrieving files within a workspace.

Yes, if you need command-line access to file storage operations. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and integrates cleanly with its ecosystem. However, verify the license status before use in proprietary contexts, and confirm that your Python version is supported (currently unspecified in the metadata).

Requires an active instance to be configured; the package is typically installed as part of a larger ecosystem.

Verify before relying

• Whether lamin-cli can be installed standalone or requires additional packages to function
• What Python versions are supported (requires_python is unspecified)
• Whether the package is actively maintained or in maintenance mode beyond the recent release
