Wave CLI

Wave CLI is a command-line wrapper around the Wave API. Use it to build, augment, freeze, mirror, and scan container images from your terminal. It works with hosted Wave and self-hosted deployments. Run it interactively or in CI pipelines to automate container workflows.

Getting started

To get started with Wave CLI:

1. Install Wave CLI. See Installation for details.

2. Create a Dockerfile in the current directory:

   Dockerfile

   FROM busybox:latest

3. Build the container:

   wave -f Dockerfile

   A successful build returns a wave.seqera.io URL you can pull or run.

Next steps

• Configuration: Connect to Seqera Platform, set the Wave endpoint, and tune build context and layer caching.
• Use cases: See end-to-end examples for Dockerfile, Singularity, and Conda builds, plus augment, freeze, mirror, and scan.
