Sync Commands

Init Command

helm2rm init [options]

  • To generate a sync_config.yaml file with the default values in the current directory, use the following command:

    helm2rm init

  • Path

    To define the path where the sync_config file should be created, use the path option.

    • Values: -p, --path
    • Example: helm2rm init [-p=<syncConfigFilePath>]

  • Help

    To display the help message, use the help option.

    • Values: -h, --help
    • Example: helm2rm init [-h]

Sync Command

helm2rm sync [-h] [--set=<values>] [-f=<configFile>] <Chart>

  • File

    To synchronize all options defined in the sync_config file, use the file option.

    • Values: -f, --file
    • Example: helm2rm sync --file sync_config.yaml

  • Set

    • Value: --set
    • Examples:

      • To synchronize the content without specifying the values defined in the sync_config file, use the set option.

        Note: Undefined parameters are populated with default values (for example, name or folder name).

        helm2rm sync --set connection.url=http://myserver/cda,connection.username=AUTOMIC/100/AUTOMIC/AUTOMIC,connection.password=changeit,application.name=sample_app C:\charts\mychart\

      • To synchronize the options defined in the sync_config file and specify some values directly, use both the set and the file options.

        helm2rm sync --file sync_config.yaml --set application.name=sample_app,application.type="Helm"

  • Help

    To display the help message, use the help option.

    • Values: -h, --help
    • Example: helm2rm sync [-h]

Examples

  • Sync chart to Component (one Application and one Component is created by default)

    helm2rm sync -a myappname C:\charts\stable\wordpress

  • Sync chart to Application (one Application and Components mapped to the chart containers are created)

    helm2rm sync -m application -a myappname C:\charts\stable\wordpress
