Init

CLI initialization is a prerequisite for all other CLI operations. It performs several internal setup steps including gathering registry credentials, determining/asking current and latest Witboost versions, and downloading migration rules.

Usage​

Usage: witboost-infra init [options]

Initializes CLI setup by setting the current Witboost version and fetch its product-values.yaml from registry

Options:
--registry-username <string>  Private Helm registry username
--registry-password <string>  Private Helm registry password
--current-version <string>    (optional) Current Witboost version, can be skipped for automatic retrieval
--context <string>            Kubernetes context, required if `version` is not set
--namespace <string>          Kubernetes namespace, required if `version` is not set
--release-name <string>       Helm release name of the Witboost deployment, required if `version` is not set
-h, --help                    display help for command

Example

./witboost-infra init --current-version "x.y.z" --registry-username git-username --registry-password your-password

Output​

  • Creates .witboost-infra directory with configuration files in the user's home directory
