# Consul KV
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Command: `consul kv`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `kv` command is used to interact with Consul's key-value store via the
|
||||||
|
command line. It exposes top-level commands for inserting, updating, reading,
|
||||||
|
and deleting from the store.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The key-value store is also accessible via the
|
||||||
|
[HTTP API](docs/agent/http/kv.html).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Usage
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Usage: `consul kv <subcommand>`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For the exact documentation for your Consul version, run `consul kv -h` to view
|
||||||
|
the complete list of subcommands.

## Basic Examples
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To create or update the key named "redis/config/connections" to the value "5" in
|
||||||
|
Consul's key-value store:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```text
|
||||||
|
$ consul kv put redis/config/connections 5
|
||||||
|
Success! Data written to: redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To read a value back from Consul:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```text
|
||||||
|
$ consul kv get redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
5
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Or you can query for detailed information:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```text
|
||||||
|
$ consul kv get -detailed redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
CreateIndex 336
|
||||||
|
Flags 0
|
||||||
|
Key redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
LockIndex 0
|
||||||
|
ModifyIndex 336
|
||||||
|
Session -
|
||||||
|
Value 5
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Finally, deleting a key is just as easy:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```text
|
||||||
|
$ consul kv delete redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
Success! Data deleted at key: redis/config/connections
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
