whl-conf 0.0.3

A configuration management tool for WheelOS.

whl-conf

whl-conf is a command-line tool for managing configuration sets (configs), particularly suited for autonomous driving applications. It provides a robust, manifest-driven workflow for activating, versioning, and modifying configurations safely.

Global Options

• --conf-dir <path>: Specifies the root directory of the configuration repository. All operations, such as creating configs and managing links, are performed relative to this directory. The default is /apollo.

Command Descriptions

• list: Displays all available configuration sets.

• info <config_name>: Shows detailed information about the specified configuration set.

• create <new_config_name>: Creates a new configuration set based on the specified template.

• delete <config_name>: Deletes the specified configuration set.

• activate <config_name> [--dry-run]: Activates the specified configuration set, creating symlinks for all managed files. Use --dry-run to preview the activation without making changes.

• add <path(s)> [--dry-run]: Adds one or more files/directories to the active configuration. This copies the source files into the active config's directory (creating a snapshot) and then creates symlinks pointing to these new copies. This operation is transactional and forcefully overwrites any existing files at the destination. Use --dry-run to preview the actions.

• remove <path(s)> [--dry-run]: Removes one or more files/directories from the active configuration. This is the mirror operation to add. It deletes both the system symlinks and the corresponding file snapshots from within the active config's directory. Use --dry-run to preview the actions.

• diff <config1_name> <config2_name>: Compares the contents of two configuration sets and shows the differences.

• rename <old_name> <new_name>: Renames the specified configuration set.

• pull [--name <name>]: Pulls a configuration set from a remote source and saves it locally. Optionally, specify a local name using --name.
