JFrog CLI is a compact and smart client that provides a simple interface that automates access to Artifactory and Mission Control through their respective REST APIs. By using the JFrog CLI, you can greatly simplify your automation scripts making them more readable and easier to maintain. Several features of the JFrog CLI makes your scripts more efficient and reliable:
- Multi-threaded upload and download of artifacts make builds run faster
- Checksum optimization reduces redundant file transfers
- Wildcards and regular expressions give you an easy way to collect all the artifacts you wish to upload or download.
- "Dry run" gives you a preview of file transfer operations before you actually run them
You can either install JFrog CLI using one of the supported installers or download its executable directly. Visit the Install JFrog CLI Page for details.
JFrog CLI is written in the Go programming language, so to build the CLI yourself, you first need to have Go installed and configured on your machine.
To download and install Go, please refer to the Go documentation.
Please download Go 1.14.x or above.
Navigate to a directory where you want to create the jfrog-cli project, outside the $GOPATH tree.
If the GOPATH variable is unset, it's default value is the go folder under the user home.
Verify that the GO111MODULE variable is either unset, or explicitly set to auto.
Clone the jfrog-cli project by executing the following command:
git clone https://github.com/jfrog/jfrog-cli
Build the project by navigating to the jfrog folder and executing the following commands. On Unix based systems run:
cd jfrog-cli
build/build.sh
On Windows run:
cd jfrog-cli
build\build.bat
Once completed, you will find the JFrog CLI executable at your current directory.

We welcome code contributions through pull requests from the community.
- If the existing tests do not already cover your changes, please add tests..
- Pull requests should be created on the dev branch.
- Please use gofmt for formatting the code before submitting the pull request.
This project heavily depends on:
- github.com/jfrog/jfrog-client-go
- github.com/jfrog/build-info-go
- github.com/jfrog/jfrog-cli-core
During local development, when you encounter code that needs to be changed from one of the above modules, it is recommended to replace the dependency to work with a local clone of the dependency.
For example, assuming you would like to change files from jfrog-cli-core.
Clone jfrog-cli-core (preferably your fork) to your local development machine
(assuming it will be cloned to /repos/jfrog-cli-core).
Change go.mod to include the following:
replace github.com/jfrog/jfrog-cli-core/v2 => /repos/jfrog-cli-core
Once done with your coding, you should push the changes you made to the other modules first. Once pushed, you can change this project to resolve the dependencies from your github fork / branch. This is done by pointing the dependency in go.mod to your repository and branch. For example:
replace github.com/jfrog/jfrog-cli-core/v2 => github.com/galusben/jfrog-cli-core/v2 dev
Then run go mod tidy
Notice that go will change the version in the go.mod file.
JFrog CLI can be used for a variety of functions with Artifactory, Xray and Mission Control, and has a dedicated set of commands for each product. To learn how to use JFrog CLI, please visit the JFrog CLI User Guide.
JFrog CLI plugins support enhancing the functionality of JFrog CLI to meet the specific user and organization needs. The source code of a plugin is maintained as an open source Go project on GitHub. All public plugins are registered in JFrog CLI's Plugins Registry, which is hosted in the jfrog-cli-plugins-reg GitHub repository. We encourage you, as developers, to create plugins and share them publically with the rest of the community. Read more about this in the JFrog CLI Plugin Developer Guide.
The release notes are available here.
