A very brief Ord CLI guide

With Ord 17.1 now available in the app-store, it is as easy as ever to use Ord’s command-line features (thank you @nmfretz).

To get started after installing Ord from the app-store, follow these steps:

  1. Open a terminal window on your computer. On macOS, you can open the Terminal app that’s installed by default on every Mac. On Windows, you can open Command Prompt or the PowerShell app.
  2. Type in the following command ssh -t umbrel@umbrel.local and press the Enter key followed by your Umbrel password
  3. Run sudo docker exec -it ordinals_ord_1 bash
  4. You can now use Ord’s CLI features, for example try ord wallet create

Use ord help for a full list of commands and flags you can use.

In an upcoming umbrelOS release, you will also be able to skip steps 1-3 with the new terminal integration into umbrelOS’s settings dashboard.

Have fun!
