quick start

esctl requires configuration file to connect to a cluster. However, it is a waste of time to create configuration file from scratch. Therefore it's recommended to use the init command which will create it interactively.

To start using esctl immediately with default configuration run:

esctl init

Default configuration will be added to your $HOME/.esctl directory. You are able to override config location with $ESCTLCONFIG env variable.
