# LiteLLM Proxy CLI

The LiteLLM Proxy CLI is a command-line tool for managing your LiteLLM proxy server. It provides commands for managing models, viewing server status, and interacting with the proxy server.

## Installation

```bash
uv tool install 'litellm[proxy]'
```

## Configuration

The CLI can be configured using environment variables or command-line options:

- `LITELLM_PROXY_URL`: Base URL of the LiteLLM proxy server (default: http://localhost:4000)
- `LITELLM_PROXY_API_KEY`: API key for authentication

## Global Options

- `--version`, `-v`: Print the LiteLLM Proxy client and server version and exit.

Example:

```bash
litellm-proxy version
# or
litellm-proxy --version
# or
litellm-proxy -v
```

# Delete users
litellm-proxy users delete u1 u2
```

9. Import models from a YAML file (with filters):

```bash
# Only import models where the model name contains 'gpt'
litellm-proxy models import models.yaml --only-models-matching-regex gpt

# Only import models with access group containing 'beta'
litellm-proxy models import models.yaml --only-access-groups-matching-regex beta

# Combine both filters
litellm-proxy models import models.yaml --only-models-matching-regex gpt --only-access-groups-matching-regex beta

## Error Handling

The CLI will display appropriate error messages when:

- The proxy server is not accessible
- Authentication fails
