Catman...:config(3pm)

💖 Catman...:config — the manual page, bestie edition ✨

okay so like… this is section 3pm of the manual, and the page is literally called Catman...:config. yes the dots are part of it. no we're not changing it. it's giving quirky and we're obsessed 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

Catmandu::Cmd::config — export the Catmandu config 💅

like, that's it. that's the whole job. it takes your Catmandu config and yeets it out into the world. iconic behaviour honestly.

---

✨ EXAMPLES ✨

bestie this page is basically all examples and ngl that's the best kind of page?? here's the group chat receipts 📸

export config to JSON — just run it, no cap:

# export config to JSON
catmandu config

or any other Catmandu::Exporter — you're not locked in to JSON, live your main character life:

# or any other Catmandu::Exporter
catmandu config to YAML --fix 'delete_field(password)'

🚨 okay so real talk, that --fix 'delete_field(password)' is doing a LOT of heavy lifting here. it's stripping the password field on the way out. keep it. don't be messy with credentials, we don't do that here 🙈

export only part of the config file — you can ask for just a lil slice, a little snack, a my.prefix sized portion:

# export only part of the config file
catmandu config my.prefix to CSV

see how my.prefix slides in before the to CSV?? yeah. that's the vibe. lowkey elegant 💜

and that's the whole page, gorgeous!! 🦋 go forth and export your config, you absolute legend 👑

this lil slice of documentation came to you from perl v5.40.1, dated 2026-01-24 — so yeah, it's canon, it's official, it's giving documented 💖 mwah, bye!! 🎀
