The `glossaries` commands of Sylphx Localization, as the CLI spells them: the same
calls as [the `glossaries` API page](/docs/api/glossaries), typed for the
shell. [Install, sign in and the grammar](/docs/cli) are on the CLI index.

## get

Gets a glossary.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx localization glossaries get orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary
```

`GET https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary` · scope `localization:read` · effect `read` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/glossaries/get)

## list

Lists glossarys.

**`PARENT`** — optional: the CLI fills it from the linked project or the
key's scope when it is left out.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx localization glossaries list orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production
```

`GET https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries` · scope `localization:read` · effect `read` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/glossaries/list)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--page-size` | `int` | At most this many; default 50, clamped to 1000. |
| `--page-token` | `string` | `next_page_token` of the previous page. |
| `--filter` | `string` | AIP-160 filter over labels and filterable fields. |
| `--order-by` | `string` | AIP-132 ordering over filterable fields. |

## create

Creates a glossary.

**`ID`** — The id segment of the new Resource's name; the server assigns one when omitted.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx localization glossaries create --parent orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production
```

`POST https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries` · scope `localization:write` · effect `write` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/glossaries/create)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--parent` | `string` | The parent to create in; defaults to the linked project or the key's scope. |
| `--meta.labels` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, indexed labels (AIP-122 label rules). Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.annotations` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, unindexed annotations. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.display-name` | `string` | Caller-writable human-readable name. |
| `--spec.terms` | `json` | The terms; at most 5000. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |

## update

Updates a glossary.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx localization glossaries update orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary
```

`PATCH https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary` · scope `localization:write` · effect `write` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/glossaries/update)

**Flags**

| Flag | Type | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--meta.labels` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, indexed labels (AIP-122 label rules). Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.annotations` | `key=value` | Caller-writable, unindexed annotations. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--meta.display-name` | `string` | Caller-writable human-readable name. |
| `--spec.terms` | `json` | The terms; at most 5000. Repeat the flag for each value. |
| `--allow-missing` | `bool` | Create the glossary when it does not exist (declarative upsert). |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |

## delete

Deletes a glossary.

**`NAME`** — the resource's name; a bare id is enough below the linked
project.

**CLI**

```bash
sylphx localization glossaries delete orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary --yes
```

`DELETE https://api.sylphx.com/v1/orgs/acme/projects/shop/envs/production/glossaries/glossary` · scope `localization:write` · effect `destructive` · [Request, response and examples](/docs/api/glossaries/delete)

| `--allow-missing` | `bool` | Succeed when the glossary does not exist. |
| `--dry-run` | `bool` | Validate and print the result without writing (validate_only). |
| `--yes` | `bool` | Do not ask before this destructive call. |
