Authenticate a connection to a remote EdgeDB instance and assign an instance name to simplify future connections.
edgedb instance link [options] name
edgedb instance link
is a terminal command used to bind a set of
connection credentials to an instance name. This is typically used as
a way to simplify connecting to remote EdgeDB database instances.
Usually there’s no need to do this for local instances as
edgedb project init will already set up a named
instance.
The instance link
command uses the standard connection
options for specifying the instance to be
linked.
Specifies a new instance name to associate with the connection options. If not present, the interactive mode will ask for the name.
Run in non-interactive mode (accepting all defaults).
Reduce command verbosity.
Trust peer certificate.
Overwrite existing credential file if any.
