💅 WWCTL(1) — the image management glow-up

Hii bestie 🌸 so this is the manual page for WWCTL(1), and specifically the wwctl image corner of it — like, the part of the Warewulf CLI that handles literally everything to do with operating system images. Buckle up, it's gonna be a cute little ride 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

wwctl-image — operating system image management. That's it, that's the vibe 🫶 you're managing OS images and looking iconic while doing it.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

wwctl image COMMAND [OPTIONS]

So real. You got wwctl image, then a COMMAND (the actual thing you wanna do), then whatever [OPTIONS] you feel like sprinkling on top ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Import, manage, and transform OS images as bootable Warewulf images. Like — you bring the image in, you fuss over it, you transform it, and boom, it's a bootable Warewulf image. Main character energy tbh 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for image. The "wait what does this do again" button, lowkey essential, no cap.

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

These ones aren't even from image itself — they're handed down from the parent command, like a family heirloom but for flags 💜

  • -d, --debug[=false] — Run with debugging messages enabled. For when you need to see everything happening, every last crumb of detail 🔥
  • -v, --verbose[=false] — Run with increased verbosity. Chattier output, basically the tool refusing to gatekeep 👀
  • --warewulfconf="" — Set the warewulf configuration file. Yeah, empty string is the default, that's literally what it says, so don't come for me 🙈
