# Command-Line Interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Almost all interaction with Vagrant is done through the command-line
|
|
|
|
|
interface.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The interface is available using the `vagrant` command, and comes installed
|
|
|
|
|
with Vagrant automatically. The `vagrant` command in turn has many subcommands,
|
|
|
|
|
such as `vagrant up`, `vagrant destroy`, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you run `vagrant` by itself, help will be displayed showing all available
|
|
|
|
|
subcommands. In addition to this, you can run any Vagrant command with the
|
|
|
|
|
`-h` flag to output help about that specific command. For example, try
|
|
|
|
|
running `vagrant init -h`. The help will output a one sentence synopsis of
|
|
|
|
|
what the command does as well as a list of all the flags the command
|
|
|
|
|
accepts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In depth documentation and use cases of various Vagrant commands is
|
|
|
|
|
available by reading the appropriate sub-section available in the left
|
|
|
|
|
navigational area of this site.
