💖 NAME 💖

incus-image-edit — edit image properties, bestie. that's it, that's the whole job. ✨

she lives in section (1) of the Incus - Command line client manual, and she's exactly what her name says: you wanna poke at the properties on an image, you come to her. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

incus image edit [:] [flags]

okay so that's the shape of it. [:] and then whatever [flags] you're feeling. lowkey minimal, highkey powerful. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Description: Edit image properties

that's the official word, and I'm not gonna dress it up more than that. she edits the properties of an image. text editor, YAML, whatever flows. it's giving "small command, main character energy." 👑

🎀 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🎀

these aren't even hers — she got them from her parent command, like hand-me-downs but make them iconic. all of them default to [=false] unless noted. 🫶

  • --debug[=false] — show all the debug messages. every last one. she's not holding back. 🐛
  • --explain[=false] — if the command is valid, explain its parsed arguments instead of actually running it. basically a vibe check on your syntax before you commit. ✨
  • --force-local[=false] — force using the local unix socket. no remote, we stayin' home. 🏠
  • -h, --help[=false] — print help. your girl always comes through. 🙋‍♀️
  • --project="" — override the source project. note the default is literally the empty string "", so if you want a project you gotta say it out loud. 💜
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — don't show progress information. silent, mysterious, unbothered. 🤫
  • --sub-commands[=false] — use this one with help or --help to view sub-commands. it's a little peek behind the curtain. 🧚
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — show all information messages. the opposite of quiet, she's yapping (affectionately). 🗣️
  • --version[=false] — print version number. receipts. 💅

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

here's how the girls are actually using her, verbatim, no edits:

  incus image edit <image>
      Launch a text editor to edit the properties

  incus image edit <image> < image.yaml
      Load the image properties from a YAML file

so either she pops open a text editor so you can edit the properties with your own two hands 🖊️, or you pipe a YAML file straight in and she loads those properties like it's nothing. both. both are iconic. 🍓
