v2.9.1

Fixes & Improvements

• Restore text as default output format for non-TTY output: when the CLI detects a non-interactive context (e.g., piped output), the auto-resolved output format is text. Previously, v2.9.0 changed the default output to JSON for non-interactive contexts.
• Show user email in workspaces header: the breadcrumb header for render workspaces displays the user's email instead of the workspace name ([user email] > Workspaces)
• Pre-select current workspace: For both render workspaces and render workspace set, the current workspace is pre-selected in the TUI

Full Changelog: v2.9.0...v2.9.1

v2.9.0

Features

Ephemeral shell via render ssh

Connect to a temporary, isolated shell instance with --ephemeral / -e.

# Interactive: select a service from the current workspace, then connect ephemerally
render ssh

# Launch an ephemeral shell for a service
render ssh my-service --ephemeral

# Short flag
render ssh my-service -e

Support RENDER_OUTPUT env var

Globally configure an output format without needing to specify it with every command.

Order of precedence:

1. Explicit --output / -o flag
2. RENDER_OUTPUT environment variable
3. Auto-detection based on TTY/CI signals

# Set output format for all commands
export RENDER_OUTPUT=json

# Or override per command
render services list -o yaml

---

Fixes & Improvements

• Support ~ expansion in file path flags. --flag=~/path now correctly resolves to $HOME/path for objects put/get --file, taskruns start --input-file, and blueprints validate [file]
• Skip TUI for non-interactive commands. Eliminates a visual flash for commands that don't render a TUI

Full Changelog: v2.8.0...v2.9.0

v2.8.0

Features

• render psql now supports non-interactive usage:

  • --command / -c — run a query and exit; output format via -o json|yaml|text.
  • Passthrough of extra psql flags via -- [args] (e.g. -- --csv, -- -t -A).

  Examples:

  # Interactive mode (default)
  render psql my-database
  
  # Single value, plain text
  render psql my-database -c "SELECT NOW();" -o text
  
  # Table as JSON or YAML (e.g. for scripts or tooling)
  render psql my-database -c "SELECT id, name FROM projects LIMIT 5;" -o json
  render psql my-database -c "SELECT id, name FROM projects LIMIT 5;" -o yaml
  
  # CSV output via psql passthrough
  render psql my-database -c "SELECT id, email FROM users;" -o text -- --csv
  
  # Multiple queries in one call (separate with semicolons)
  render psql my-database -c "SELECT 1 AS a; SELECT 2 AS b;" -o text

• render workspaces lists available workspaces

  • Interactive (default) and non-interactive output: -o text, -o json, -o yaml.

  Examples:

  # Interactive mode (default): browse workspaces in the terminal
  render workspaces
  
  # Plain text table (e.g. for logs or quick scans)
  render workspaces -o text
  
  # JSON for scripts, CI, or piping into jq
  render workspaces -o json
  render workspaces -o json | jq '.[].name'
  
  # YAML for config or docs
  render workspaces -o yaml
