Historique du projet

The standalone `neondatabase/neonctl` repository was created on 2022-08-27 and was later archived after development moved to the `neondatabase/neon-pkgs` monorepo under `packages/cli`. The old README points users to the monorepo for issues and pull requests, so the package history is a migration story rather than a dead project story.

The npm package `neonctl` was created on 2022-08-17 and had 172 published versions by 2026-07-01, while the newer monorepo release tags use names such as `neonctl@2.29.2`. That release cadence fits a cloud-service CLI: frequent small updates track API, authentication, branch, and deployment-surface changes.

Historique d'adoption

Homebrew's formula API listed `neonctl` stable 2.29.0 on 2026-07-01, with install analytics of 1,704 installs in 30 days, 2,502 in 90 days, and 9,571 in 365 days. That is modest compared with editor/toolchain packages, but meaningful for a vendor-specific database CLI.

Adoption is tied to Neon users rather than to a broad independent ecosystem. The package matters when teams use Neon branching, connection strings, API-key automation, or local project linking from shell scripts and CI.

Modes d'utilisation

The documented install paths are npm, Homebrew, and direct binaries. Users authenticate with `neon auth` or `neonctl auth`, list and create projects or branches, fetch connection strings, open `psql`, and bind a working directory to a Neon project with `link`-style workflows.

Package-oriented users tend to install it globally through Homebrew or npm because it is an operational tool: it belongs on developer laptops and CI runners rather than inside an application dependency graph.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

For av.db, `brew:neonctl` is best treated as a cloud database control-plane CLI with active upstream development in a moved repository. The Homebrew formula name preserves the older `neonctl` identity even as the command and npm package story shifts toward `neon`.
