💅 WWCTL(1) — the wwctl girlies' handbook

okay so real talk: this is a page from the wwctl(1) manual — yes, that wwctl — and bestie, it's the configure girlie's moment to shine. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

wwctl-configure — literally here to manage your system services. that's the whole job. slay.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

wwctl configure [OPTIONS]

that's it. that's the vibe. options go in the little [OPTIONS] slot and you're off. 🦋

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so this application — no cap — lets you manage and initialize all your Warewulf dependent system services, and it does it based on the configuration in the warewulf.conf file. like it reads the conf and then goes and does the thing. main character energy, honestly. 💖

👑 OPTIONS 👑

here's the good stuff. every single one, no skipping, we don't do that here:

  • -a, --all[=false] — configure all the services. go big or go home. 🔥
  • -h, --help[=false] — help for configure. when in doubt, ask for help, it's giving self-care. 🙈

💜 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 💜

these ones aren't even from configure itself — they're heirlooms, passed down from the parent commands. still iconic, still yours:

  • -d, --debug[=false] — run with debugging messages enabled. turn this on when something's acting sus. 🔍
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — run with increased verbosity. she talks more. we love a chatty queen. 💬
  • --warewulfconf="" — set the warewulf configuration file. you point, it reads. 🫶
note that each of those [=false] bits is the default, bestie — they start off, you turn 'em on. and --warewulfconf defaults to empty (""). ⭐
