πŸ’… bkr-distros-untag β€” from the Beaker manual, section 1

okay so bestie, welcome to bkr-distros-untag(1) πŸŽ€ this one lives in the Beaker family of man pages and honestly? it's a little demolition queen. less "build things" more "remove things". let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

bkr-distros-untag β€” the tool that untags Beaker distros. that's it. that's the whole job. she takes a tag off. no cap πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

bkr distros-untag [options] --name <name> <tag>

literally just that. options, then --name <name>, then the tag you wanna rip off. iconic ✨


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the vibe: this thing removes the given tag from all matching distros in Beaker. all of 'em that match. every single one, bestie, no survivors 😭

and then, because she's polite, she prints to stdout a list of the distros which were untagged. so you get receipts. love that for you 🫢


✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --name <name> β€” limit to distros with the given name. and listen, <name> is interpreted as a SQL LIKE pattern, meaning the % character matches any substring πŸ‘‘ so yes you can be lazy and wildcard it up, iykyk
also! the Common bkr options are described in the Options section of bkr(1) β€” go peek at that one if you need the shared stuff πŸ’œ

⭐ EXIT STATUS ⭐

non-zero on error, otherwise zero. simple. if it's mad, you'll know. if it's happy, it's a clean zero 🌈


πŸ”₯ EXAMPLES πŸ”₯

okay so this one removes the "STABLE" tag from all RHEL 8.0.0 nightly trees from a particular date:

bkr distros-untag --name RHEL-8.0.0-20190410% STABLE

see the % doing its wildcard thing at the end? that's the LIKE pattern flexing πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ one command, whole batch of trees untagged, ate πŸ’…


🌸 NOTES 🌸

this command is only available to Beaker administrators. so if it's not working for you, it might not be a bug β€” it might just be a permissions vibe check πŸ™ˆ
