dsc group¶
List, inspect, and copy groups.
dsc group list¶
Lists all groups with their IDs, names, and full names. -v/--verbose includes additional fields where supported.
dsc group info¶
Shows details for a specific group.
dsc group members¶
Lists members of the specified group.
dsc group copy¶
Copies the specified group. If --target is omitted, copies within the same Discourse.
- The copied group name is slugified and suffixed with
-copy(e.g.,staff->staff-copy). - The copied group full name is set to
Copy of <original full name>. - All other fields match the source, except the ID which is assigned by Discourse.
<group-id> can be found using dsc group list.
dsc group add¶
Bulk-add members to a group by email. The input is one email per line; blank lines and # comments are ignored; duplicates and case differences are collapsed. Reads stdin when <local-path> is omitted or -. With --notify, Discourse sends each added user a notification.
Emails must resolve to existing users on the Discourse — the endpoint does not auto-invite unknown addresses. To invite new people, use Discourse's invites UI (or Phase 2's planned dsc invite).
Honours --dry-run (-n), which prints the cleaned email list without sending.
# From a file
dsc group add myforum 42 ./new-members.txt
# From stdin with a pipeline
printf 'alice@example.com\nbob@example.com\n' | dsc group add myforum 42
# Preview first
dsc -n group add myforum 42 ./new-members.txt
The symmetric per-user view is dsc user groups.
