+# Command line interface
+
+You can try out `actualpy` directly without the need if writing a custom script. All you need to do is install the
+command line interface with:
+
+```bash
+pip install "actualpy[cli]"
+```
+
+You should then be able to generate exports directly:
+
+```console
+$ actualpy init
+Please enter the URL of the actual server [http://localhost:5006]:
+Please enter the Actual server password:
+(1) Test
+Please enter the budget index: 1
+Name of the context for this budget [test]:
+Initialized budget 'test'
+$ actualpy export
+Exported budget 'Test' (budget id 'My-Finances-0b46239') to '2024-10-04-1438-Test.zip'.
+```
+
+The configuration will be saved on the folder `.actualpy/config.yaml`. Check full help for more details:
+
+```console
+$ actualpy --help
