Oracle Cloud Local Dev Loop
Overview
The OCI web console is slow, hard to navigate, and requires dozens of clicks for common operations. A local dev workflow using the OCI CLI and Python SDK replaces the console for everything: listing resources, launching instances, managing object storage, and checking service health. Profile switching lets you target dev/staging/prod from the same terminal.
Purpose: Set up a complete local OCI development environment with CLI profiles, shell aliases, environment variable management, and common workflow scripts that eliminate the need for the web console.
Prerequisites
Completed oraclecloud-install-auth — valid ~/.oci/config with at least one profile
Python 3.8+ with pip install oci oci-cli
Bash or Zsh shell
OCIDs for your compartments (Governance > Compartments in the Console — last time you need it)
Instructions
Step 1: Install and Verify the OCI CLI
pip install oci-cli
# Verify installation
oci --version
# Quick connectivity test
oci iam region list --output table
Step 2: Set Up Multiple Profiles
Edit ~/.oci/config with profiles for each environment:
Switch profiles with the --profile flag or OCI_CLI_PROFILE env var:
# CLI flag
oci compute instance list --compartment-id <OCID> --profile dev
# Environment variable (applies to all commands in session)
export OCI_CLI_PROFILE=dev
oci compute instance list --compartment-id <OCID>
Step 3: Environment Variables and .env File
Create a project .env file for compartment OCIDs and region defaults:
# Upload a file
oci os object put --bucket-name my-bucket --file ./data.csv --name data/input.csv
# Download a file
oci os object get --bucket-name my-bucket --name data/input.csv --file ./downloaded.csv
# List objects with prefix
oci os object list --bucket-name my-bucket --prefix "data/" \
--query "data[*].{Name:name,Size:size}" --output table
# Bulk upload a directory
oci os object bulk-upload --bucket-name my-bucket --src-dir ./upload/ --overwrite
Step 6: Python SDK Local Dev Script
Create a reusable dev helper:
#!/usr/bin/env python3"""oci_dev.py — Local OCI development helper."""import oci
import os
import sys
defget_config(profile="DEFAULT"):
"""Load OCI config with environment variable overrides."""
config = oci.config.from_file("~/.oci/config", profile_name=profile)
# Allow env var override for compartment
config["compartment_id"] = os.environ.get(
"OCI_COMPARTMENT_ID", config.get("tenancy")
)
oci.config.validate_config(config)
return config
deflist_instances(config):
compute = oci.core.ComputeClient(config, timeout=(10, 30))
instances = compute.list_instances(
compartment_id=config["compartment_id"]
).data
for inst in instances:
print(f"{inst.display_name:<30}{inst.lifecycle_state:<12}{inst.shape}")
return instances
deflist_buckets(config):
os_client = oci.object_storage.ObjectStorageClient(config, timeout=(10, 30))
namespace = os_client.get_namespace().data
buckets = os_client.list_buckets(
namespace_name=namespace,
compartment_id=config["compartment_id"]
).data
for b in buckets:
print(f"{b.name:<40}{b.time_created}")
return buckets
defhealth_check(config):
identity = oci.identity.IdentityClient(config, timeout=(5, 15))
user = identity.get_user(config["user"]).data
regions = identity.list_regions().data
print(f"User: {user.name}")
print(f"Regions: {len(regions)} available")
print("Status: OK")
if __name__ == "__main__":
profile = os.environ.get("OCI_CLI_PROFILE", "DEFAULT")
cfg = get_config(profile)
cmd = sys.argv[1] iflen(sys.argv) > 1else"health"if cmd == "instances":
list_instances(cfg)
elif cmd == "buckets":
list_buckets(cfg)
elif cmd == "health":
health_check(cfg)
else:
print(f"Usage: python oci_dev.py [instances|buckets|health]")
With your local dev loop set up, see oraclecloud-sdk-patterns for production-grade client patterns, or oraclecloud-common-errors when you hit issues during development.
