Render CLI

Render has a public REST API and SSH access. A CLI would be useful for:
* Tailing service logs
* Connecting to Private Services
* CI/CD workflows

We're releasing our new CLI into public beta today! Designed with humans in mind, Render's new CLI defaults to interactive mode, offering a visual interface to do things like deploy your service, tail logs, or access a database with psql. Prefer working without the interface? You can always use the CLI in non-interactive mode for structured, scriptable responses. Learn more and get installation instructions here: https://docs.render.com/cli

Would there be the ability to download database backups through the cli? We are looking to use them to power preview enviornments.

We're planning a new CLI experience and will move this post back to in-progress once we begin implementation.

Coming from Heroku, the command I miss the most is
heroku pg:psql
to connect to the database. Compared to ssh, it's less obvious with psql how to safely use credentials in shell and shell scripts, so it would be great for the CLI to handle it.J

I'd love to see a way to get database connection strings (psql, postgres://) from the render CLI. My use case is that I would like to use the pgsync tool (https://github.com/ankane/pgsync) to transfer selected data from production to a preview database. Currently the workflow requires me to go locate the source and destination URL in the web interface, then copy and paste into my pgsync.yml.
However, it would be nicer if I could have pgsync.yml shell out to render-cli, fetch the proper URL and then it just works. It would be more consistent and less error prone since it's fully automated, while still protecting the credentials/connection strings since nobody is plaintext copy/pasting them anywhere.

From Ed Ropple at https://community.render.com/t/release-announcement-render-cli-v0-1-3-now-via-homebrew/8430:
Hey folks! We announced v0.1.0 of the new Render CLI just before the holidays, with more to come. I’ve been cooking on distribution and making it easier for you to get hold of it.
On your Mac (Linux Homebrew isn’t tested but should work as well), you can go:
brew tap render-oss/render
brew install render
And you should have yourself a shiny CLI in a few minutes.
All of this will be getting into our docs pretty soon. We wanted to get this stuff into a good spot before opening it up, but also wanted our community folks to get an early bite at the apple.
Thanks for using Render!
