OC(1)
π OC β like, the whole manual bestie
okay so this is oc from the OpenShift CLI User Manuals, dated June 2016 β we'll get to the cute sign-off at the very end, promise π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
oc project β switch to another project, slay π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
oc project [OPTIONS]
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Switch to another project and make it the default in your config. periodt. π
If no project was specified on the command line, it'll display info about the current active project β like a little vibe check on where you're at β¨
Now, since you can use this command to connect to projects on different servers, you will occasionally encounter projects of the same name on different servers. lowkey confusing but hear me out: when switching to that project, a new local context will be created that will have a unique name β for instance, 'myapp-2'. If you have previously created a context with a different name than the project name, this command will accept that context name instead. it's giving flexible πββοΈ
For advanced configuration, or to manage the contents of your config file, use the 'config' command. iykyk π§
π OPTIONS π
-q,--short=falseβ iftrue, display only the project name. that's it. no extra lore, just the name β¨
