Interacting with an app.yaml manifest¶
The CLI offers commands to help you work with the app.yaml
manifest file.
Initialize a manifest¶
The app.yaml manifest holds the instructions for deploying and
running an application in Nextmv. It has many fields which can be hard to
remember by heart. You can use the nextmv manifest init
command to go through an interactive session that will help you initialize a
manifest with some pre-configured defaults.
You can also use the options provided by the command if you don't want to be prompted. Go to the command's reference for more information or get the help to check the available options:
Validate a manifest¶
The CLI provides the nextmv manifest validate command to
validate a manifest and make sure that it is well-formed and has all the
required fields. You can use it to validate a manifest before deploying it to
Nextmv Cloud. Use the command in the same location as the app.yaml file or
alternatively use the --dirpath option to specify a different path to the
manifest.
