# kosli list repos

> List repos for an org.

## Synopsis

```shell theme={"theme":"dracula","languages":{"custom":["/languages/rego.json"]}}
kosli list repos [flags]
```

List repos for an org. The results are always paginated:
by default the first page is returned with 15 repos per page. Use --page to select
a page and --page-limit to change the page size (maximum 50).
The list can be filtered by name with --name (exact match), by name substring with
\--search (case-insensitive, mutually exclusive with --name), by VCS provider with
\--provider, by external repo ID with --repo-id, and by tags with --tag.
Results are sorted by repo name; use --sort-direction to choose asc or desc.

## Flags

| Flag | Type | Description |
| :- | :- | :- |
| `-h`, `--help` | bool | help for repos |
| `--name` | string | \[optional] The repo name to filter by (exact match). |
| `-o`, `--output` | string | \[defaulted] The format of the output. Valid formats are: \[table, json]. (default "table") |
| `--page` | int | \[defaulted] The page number of a response. (default 1) |
| `-n`, `--page-limit` | int | \[defaulted] The number of elements per page. (default 15) |
| `--provider` | string | \[optional] The VCS provider to filter repos by (e.g. github, gitlab). |
| `--repo-id` | string | \[optional] The external repo ID to filter repos by. |
| `--search` | string | \[optional] Filter repos whose name contains this substring (case-insensitive). Mutually exclusive with `--name`. |
| `--sort-direction` | string | \[optional] The direction to sort repos by name. Valid values are: \[asc, desc]. (defaults to asc) |
| `--tag` | stringArray | \[optional] Only list repos that have this tag, given as 'key' or 'key:value'. Can be repeated to match more than one tag. |

## Flags inherited from parent commands

| :- | :- | :- |
| `-a`, `--api-token` | string | The Kosli API token. |
| `-c`, `--config-file` | string | \[optional] The Kosli config file path. Config is read from this path or the default only, never implicitly from the current directory. (default "\$HOME/.kosli.yml") |
| `--debug` | bool | \[optional] Print debug logs to stdout. |

| `-r`, `--max-api-retries` | int | \[defaulted] How many times should API calls be retried when the API host is not reachable. (default 3) |
| `--org` | string | The Kosli organization. |
| `-q`, `--quiet` | bool | \[optional] Suppress non-critical warning messages. Errors and normal output are not affected. If both `--quiet` and `--debug` are set, `--debug` wins. |
