How can we improve Atlas CLI?

← Atlas CLI

JSON

An export function to export the configuration of an existing Cluster to a JSON config file, of the kind used by Atlas CLI to create clusters.

I can imagine this as a flag for a detailed output of "atlas cluster describe "

Thanks for raising this suggestion.

As per the comment earlier, this is already available with "--output json"  flag. If you'd like to export it to a file, feel free to add "> filename.json" at the end of command.


I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Jakub

    Hi, you can already do this by using custom outputs, see `atlas clusters describe --help`

    ```
    Return the details for the specified cluster for your project.

    Usage:
    atlas clusters describe <clusterName> [flags]

    Aliases:
    describe, get

    Examples:
    # Return the JSON-formatted details for the cluster named myCluster:
    atlas clusters describe myCluster --output json

    Flags:
    -h, --help help for describe
    -o, --output string Output format. Valid values are json, json-path, go-template, or go-template-file.
    --projectId string Hexadecimal string that identifies the project to use. This option overrides the settings in the configuration file or environment variable.

    ```

    in particular you could do
    ```
    atlas clusters describe myCluster --output json > myCluster.json
    ```

    and get the json file for myCluster
