+# CLI tools
+
+CLI tools allow you to query the S3 API without too many abstractions.
+These tools are particularly suitable for debug, backups, website deployments or any scripted task that need to handle data.
+
+## Minio client (recommended)
+
+Use the following command to set an "alias", i.e. define a new S3 server to be
+used by the Minio client:
+
+```bash
+mc alias set \
+  garage \
+  <endpoint> \
+  <access key> \
+  <secret key> \
+  --api S3v4
+```
+
+Remember that `mc` is sometimes called `mcli` (such as on Arch Linux), to avoid conflicts
+with Midnight Commander.
+
+Some commands:
+
+```bash
+# list buckets
+mc ls garage/
+
+# list objets in a bucket
+mc ls garage/my_files
+
+# copy from your filesystem to garage
+mc cp /proc/cpuinfo garage/my_files/cpuinfo.txt
+
+# copy from garage to your filesystem
+mc cp garage/my_files/cpuinfo.txt /tmp/cpuinfo.txt
+
+# mirror a folder from your filesystem to garage
+mc mirror --overwrite ./book garage/garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr
+```
+
+
+## AWS CLI
+
+Create a file named `~/.aws/credentials` and put:
+
+```toml
+[default]
+aws_access_key_id=xxxx
+aws_secret_access_key=xxxx
+```
+
+Then a file named `~/.aws/config` and put:
+
+```toml
+[default]
+region=garage
+```
+
+Now, supposing Garage is listening on `http://127.0.0.1:3901`, you can list your buckets with:
+
+```bash
+aws --endpoint-url http://127.0.0.1:3901 s3 ls
+```
+
+Passing the `--endpoint-url` parameter to each command is annoying but AWS developers do not provide a corresponding configuration entry.
+As a workaround, you can redefine the aws command by editing the file `~/.bashrc`:
+
+```
+function aws { command aws --endpoint-url http://127.0.0.1:3911 $@ ; }
+```
+
+*Do not forget to run `source ~/.bashrc` or to start a new terminal before running the next commands.*
+
+Now you can simply run:
+
+```bash
+# list buckets
+aws s3 ls
+
+# list objects of a bucket
+aws s3 ls s3://my_files
+
+# copy from your filesystem to garage
+aws s3 cp /proc/cpuinfo s3://my_files/cpuinfo.txt
+
+# copy from garage to your filesystem
+aws s3 cp s3/my_files/cpuinfo.txt /tmp/cpuinfo.txt
+```
+
+## `rclone`
+
+`rclone` can be configured using the interactive assistant invoked using `rclone configure`.
+
+You can also configure `rclone` by writing directly its configuration file.
+Here is a template `rclone.ini` configuration file:
+
+```ini
+[garage]
+type = s3
+provider = Other
+env_auth = false
+access_key_id = <access key>
+secret_access_key = <secret key>
+region = <region>
+endpoint = <endpoint>
+force_path_style = true
+acl = private
+bucket_acl = private
+```
+
+## Cyberduck
+
+TODO
+
+## `s3cmd`
+
+Here is a template for the `s3cmd.cfg` file to talk with Garage:
+
+```ini
+[default]
+access_key = <access key>
+secret_key = <secret key>
+host_base = <endpoint without http(s)://>
+host_bucket = <same as host_base>
+use_https = False | True
+```
