# eksctl
> The official CLI for Amazon EKS.
> More information: <https://eksctl.io>.
- Create a basic cluster:
`eksctl create cluster`
- List the details about a cluster or all of the clusters:
`eksctl get cluster --name={{name}} --region={{region}}`
- Create a cluster passing all configuration information in a file:
`eksctl create cluster --config-file={{path/to/file}}`
- Create a cluster using a configuration file and skip creating nodegroups until later:
`eksctl create cluster --config-file={{path/to/file}} --without-nodegroup`
- Delete a cluster:
`eksctl delete cluster --name={{name}} --region={{region}}`
- Create cluster and write cluster credentials to a file other than the default:
`eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --kubeconfig={{path/to/config.yaml}}`
- Create a cluster and prevent storing cluster credentials locally:
`eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --write-kubeconfig=false`
- Create a cluster and let `eksctl` manage cluster credentials under the `~/.kube/eksctl/clusters` directory:
`eksctl create cluster --name={{name}} --nodes={{4}} --auto-kubeconfig`
