Configuring via file

Example YAML:

vm-extension-config:
  name: some_vm_extension
  cloud_properties:
    source_dest_check: false

Variables

The create-vm-extension command now supports variable substitution inside the config template:

# config.yml
vm-extension-config:
  name: some_vm_extension
  cloud_properties:
    source_dest_check: ((enable_source_dest_check))

Values can be provided from a separate variables yaml file (--vars-file) or from environment variables (--vars-env).

To load variables from a file use the --vars-file flag.

# vars.yml
enable_source_dest_check: false
om create-vm-extension \
  --config config.yml \
  --vars-file vars.yml

To load variables from a set of environment variables, specify the common environment variable prefix with the --vars-env flag.

OM_VAR_enable_source_dest_check=false om create-vm-extension \
  --config config.yml \
  --vars-env OM_VAR

The interpolation support is inspired by similar features in BOSH. You can refer to the BOSH documentation for details on how interpolation is performed.
