Installation

or

Use the go install command to build and install the command from source.

go install github.com/angrycub/parse-nomad-config

Usage

usage: parse-nomad-config [options] [hcl-file ...]
  -j, --json              output in JSON format
  -o, --out string        write to the given file, instead of stdout
  -t, --template string   output using a go template
  -v, --version           show the version number and immediately exit

Examples

Given the following Nomad configuration file--server.hcl:

datacenter = "dc1"
data_dir   = "/opt/nomad/data"
log_level  = "DEBUG"

server {
  encrypt = "rn5HmQP/y1o2hvMxMfMYag=="
  enabled = true
}

Print the effective configuration as JSON

$ parse-nomad-config --json server.hcl

Some of the fields are suppressed when printed in JSON format. For example, the server.encrypt field is not included in JSON output. Public fields that are not printed in JSON can be retrieved by using the Go Template output option.

These fields will have different capitalization and occasionally different names. You can use the "%+v" format string to explore the Config structure or consult the nomad.command.agent.Config type for the full type specification.

Retrieve the encrypt value using a Go Template

$ parse-nomad-config --template '{{ printf "%+v" .Server.EncryptKey}}' server.hcl
rn5HmQP/y1o2hvMxMfMYag==
