Common Arguments
Common arguments
A few sets of arguments are common between multiple commands. These arguments are still part of the command itself and must be placed after the command name.
Global arguments
These arguments are available for all commands.
Global arguments:
--cpu-profile string Enable CPU profiling and write the result to the given path
--debug Enable debug logging
--no-color Disable colored output
--no-update-check Disable update check on startup
Project arguments
These arguments are available for all commands that are based on a Kluctl project. They control where and how to load the kluctl project and deployment project.
Project arguments:
Define where and how to load the kluctl project and its components from.
-a, --arg stringArray Passes a template argument in the form of name=value. Nested args
can be set with the '-a my.nested.arg=value' syntax. Values are
interpreted as yaml values, meaning that 'true' and 'false' will
lead to boolean values and numbers will be treated as numbers. Use
quotes if you want these to be treated as strings. If the value
starts with @, it is treated as a file, meaning that the contents
of the file will be loaded and treated as yaml.
--args-from-file stringArray Loads a yaml file and makes it available as arguments, meaning that
they will be available thought the global 'args' variable.
--context string Overrides the context name specified in the target. If the selected
target does not specify a context or the no-name target is used,
--context will override the currently active context.
--git-cache-update-interval duration Specify the time to wait between git cache updates. Defaults to not
wait at all and always updating caches.
--local-git-group-override stringArray Same as --local-git-override, but for a whole group prefix instead
of a single repository. All repositories that have the given prefix
will be overridden with the given local path and the repository
suffix appended. For example,
'gitlab.com:some-org/sub-org=/local/path/to/my-forks' will override
all repositories below 'gitlab.com:some-org/sub-org/' with the
repositories found in '/local/path/to/my-forks'. It will however
only perform an override if the given repository actually exists
locally and otherwise revert to the actual (non-overridden) repository.
--local-git-override stringArray Specify a single repository local git override in the form of
'github.com:my-org/my-repo=/local/path/to/override'. This will
cause kluctl to not use git to clone for the specified repository
but instead use the local directory. This is useful in case you
need to test out changes in external git repositories without
pushing them.
-c, --project-config existingfile Location of the .kluctl.yaml config file. Defaults to
$PROJECT/.kluctl.yaml
--project-dir existingdir Specify the project directory. Defaults to the current working
directory.
-t, --target string Target name to run command for. Target must exist in .kluctl.yaml.
-T, --target-name-override string Overrides the target name. If -t is used at the same time, then the
target will be looked up based on -t <name> and then renamed to the
value of -T. If no target is specified via -t, then the no-name
target is renamed to the value of -T.
--timeout duration Specify timeout for all operations, including loading of the
project, all external api calls and waiting for readiness. (default
10m0s)
Image arguments
These arguments are available on some target based commands.
They control image versions requested by images.get_image(...)
calls
.
Image arguments:
Control fixed images and update behaviour.
-F, --fixed-image stringArray Pin an image to a given version. Expects
'--fixed-image=image<:namespace:deployment:container>=result'
--fixed-images-file existingfile Use .yaml file to pin image versions. See output of list-images
sub-command or read the documentation for details about the output format
Inclusion/Exclusion arguments
These arguments are available for some target based commands. They control inclusion/exclusion based on tags and deployment item pathes.
Inclusion/Exclusion arguments:
Control inclusion/exclusion.
--exclude-deployment-dir stringArray Exclude deployment dir. The path must be relative to the root
deployment project. Exclusion has precedence over inclusion, same as
in --exclude-tag
-E, --exclude-tag stringArray Exclude deployments with given tag. Exclusion has precedence over
inclusion, meaning that explicitly excluded deployments will always
be excluded even if an inclusion rule would match the same deployment.
--include-deployment-dir stringArray Include deployment dir. The path must be relative to the root
deployment project.
-I, --include-tag stringArray Include deployments with given tag.
Command Results arguments
These arguments control how command results are stored.
Command Results:
Configure how command results are stored.
--command-result-namespace string Override the namespace to be used when writing command results. (default
"kluctl-results")
--force-write-command-result Force writing of command results, even if the command is run in dry-run mode.
--keep-command-results-count int Configure how many old command results to keep. (default 10)
--write-command-result Enable writing of command results into the cluster.
