## The official CLI for Gitea

![demo gif](./demo.gif)

```
   tea - command line tool to interact with Gitea
   version 0.8.0-preview

 USAGE
   tea command [subcommand] [command options] [arguments...]

 DESCRIPTION
   tea is a productivity helper for Gitea. It can be used to manage most entities on
   one or multiple Gitea instances & provides local helpers like 'tea pr checkout'.
   
   tea tries to make use of context provided by the repository in $PWD if available.
   tea works best in a upstream/fork workflow, when the local main branch tracks the
   upstream repo. tea assumes that local git state is published on the remote before
   doing operations with tea.    Configuration is persisted in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/tea.

## Installation

There are different ways to get `tea`:

1. Install via your system package manager:
    - macOS via `brew` (official):
      ```sh
      brew install tea
      ```
    - arch linux ([gitea-tea-git](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gitea-tea-git), thirdparty)
    - alpine linux ([tea](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=tea&branch=edge), thirdparty)

2. Use the prebuilt binaries from [dl.gitea.com](https://dl.gitea.com/tea/)

3. Install from source: [see *Compilation*](#compilation)

4. Docker (thirdparty): [tgerczei/tea](https://hub.docker.com/r/tgerczei/tea)

5. asdf (thirdparty): [mvaldes14/asdf-tea](https://github.com/mvaldes14/asdf-tea)

## Compilation

Make sure you have a current go version installed (1.13 or newer).

- To compile the source yourself with the recommended flags & tags:
  ```sh
  git clone https://gitea.com/gitea/tea.git # or: tea clone gitea.com/gitea/tea ;)
  cd tea
  make
  ```
  Note that GNU Make (gmake on OpenBSD) is required.
  If you want to install the compiled program you have to execute the following command:
  ```sh
  make install
  ```
  This installs the binary into the "bin" folder inside of your GOPATH folder (`go env GOPATH`). It is possible that this folder isn't in your PATH Environment Variable. 

- For a quick installation without `git` & `make`, set $version and exec:
  ```sh
  go install code.gitea.io/tea@${version}
  ```
