# Consul Agent Services
|
|
|
|
Command: `consul services`
|
|
|
|
The `services` command has subcommands for interacting with Consul services
|
|
registered with the [local agent](/consul/docs/agent). These provide
|
|
useful commands such as `register` and `deregister` for easily registering
|
|
services in scripts, dev mode, etc.
|
|
To view all services in the catalog, instead of only agent-local services,
|
|
see the [`catalog services`](/consul/commands/catalog/services) command.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
Usage: `consul services <subcommand>`
|
|
|
|
For the exact documentation for your Consul version, run `consul services -h` to
|
|
view the complete list of subcommands.

## Basic Examples
|
|
|
|
To create a simple service:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ consul services register -name=web
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To create a service from a configuration file:
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ cat web.json
|
|
{
|
|
"Service": {
|
|
"Name": "web"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
$ consul services register web.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To deregister a service:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# Either style works:
|
|
$ consul services deregister web.json
|
|
|
|
$ consul services deregister -id web
|
|
```
