Sets a context in the `~/.redis-di` context file to be the active one, so its connection details are
used by subsequent commands. Create or update a context with
[`set-context`](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/cli/redis-di-set-context).

## Usage

```
redis-di use-context <name> [flags]
```

## Options

This command takes only the
[global options](https://redis.io/docs/latest/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/cli/redis-di#global-options).

## Example

```bash
redis-di use-context prod
```
