LXC.CONFIG.METADATA(1)

lxc-config-metadata 💅✨

okay bestie, welcome to the LXD - Command line client(1) manual page — specifically the one for lxc config metadata, and it's literally all about managing instance metadata files. no cap. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

lxc-config-metadata — Manage instance metadata files

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

lxc config metadata [flags]

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

the description is short and sweet, and honestly? iconic for it:

Description: Manage instance metadata files

💅 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 💅

these are the flags you inherit from the parent commands, bestie — every single one, don't skip:

• --debug[=false] — Show all debug messages
• --force-local[=false] — Force using the local unix socket
• -h, --help[=false] — Print help
• --project="" — Override the source project``
• -q, --quiet[=false] — Don't show progress information
• --sub-commands[=false] — Use with help or --help to view sub-commands
• -v, --verbose[=false] — Show all information messages
• --version[=false] — Print version number

bestie, that --project="" line really does have those two stray backticks after “project” in the original. not me side-eyeing the typo 😭 but we keep it exactly as it is. 💀
