 # create-preview
+
+The `create-preview` command can be used to create a preview environment in your *deployment config repository* for a pull request in you *app repository*. You can later easily delete this preview with the [`delete-preview` command](/gitopscli/commands/delete-preview/).
+
+You need to provide some additional configuration files in your repositories for this command to work. 
+
+## Configuration
+### Preview Templates
+
+Your *deployment config repository* needs to contain a `.preview-templates` folder with the deployment configuration templates for every application you want to use this command for.
+
+For example you have to provide `.preview-templates/app-xy` for your app `app-xy`. The `create-preview` command simply copies this directory to the root of the repository. Only image tag and route host will be replaced in the preview version of the deployment.
+
+```
+deployment-config-repo/
+├── .preview-templates
+│   └── app-xy
+│       ├── values.yaml
+│       └── some-more-config-files-or-folders
+├── app-xy-production
+├── app-xy-staging
+├── app-xy-test
+└── app-xy-c7003101-preview  <- This is how a created preview looks like
+    ├── values.yaml          <- image tag and route host are replaced in this one
+    └── some-more-config-files-or-folders
+```
+
+!!! info "Currently you have to specify image tag and route host in a `values.yaml` file. We are working on making this configurable in the future."
+
+### .gitops.config.yaml
+
+Make sure that your *app repository* contains a `.gitops.config.yaml` file. This file provides all information to 
+
+1. find the *deployment config repository*
+2. locate the preview template for your app
+3. replace image tag and route host in the template
+
+```yaml
+deploymentConfig:
+  # The organisation name of your deployment repo
+  org: deployments
+  # The repostiory name of your deployment repo
+  repository: deployment-config-repo
+  # The name of the application (name of the folder in `.preview-templates`)
+  applicationName: app-xy
+
+previewConfig:
+  route:
+    host:
+      # Your router host
+      # {SHA256_8CHAR_BRANCH_HASH} gets replaced by a shortened hash of your feature branch name
+      template: app.xy-{SHA256_8CHAR_BRANCH_HASH}.example.tld
+  replace:
+    # Paths that should be replaced in the `values.yaml`
+    - path: image.tag
+      variable: GIT_COMMIT # this is the latest git hash of the pull request branch
+    - path: route.host
+      variable: ROUTE_HOST # this is the resolved host.template from above
+```
+
+## Example
+
+```bash
+gitopscli create-preview \
+  --git-provider-url https://bitbucket.baloise.dev \
+  --username $GIT_USERNAME \
+  --password $GIT_PASSWORD \

+  --repository-name "app-xy" \
+  --pr-id 4711 \
+  --branch "my-pr-branch" \
+  --create-pr \
+  --auto-merge
+```
+
+!!! warning "The `--branch` parameter is currently used to locate the PR branch in the *app repository* as well as to create the change branch in the *deployment config repository*. This may lead to branch collisions in the config repository. Hence, the current behavior may be subject to change in the near future.
