NAME
kas-for-all-repos - kas for-all-repos plugin
SYNOPSIS
kas for-all-repos [-h] [--skip STEP] [--force-checkout] [--update] [-E] [-k]
[config] command
DESCRIPTION
Runs a specified command in all checked out repositories.
This plugin implements the kas for-all-repos command.
When this command is executed, kas will checkout the repositories listed in the chosen config file and
then execute a specified command in each repository. It can be used to query the repository status,
automate actions such as archiving the layers used in a build or to execute any other required commands.
For example, to print the commit hashes used by each repository used in the file kas-project.yml
(assuming they are all git repositories) you could run:
kas for-all-repos kas-project.yml 'git rev-parse HEAD'
The environment for executing the command in each repository is extended to include the following
variables:
• KAS_REPO_NAME: The name of the current repository determined by either the name property or by the
key used for this repo in the config file.
• KAS_REPO_PATH: The path of the local directory where this repository is checked out, relative to the
directory where kas is executed.
• KAS_REPO_URL: The URL from which this repository was cloned, or an empty string if no remote URL was
given in the config file.
• KAS_REPO_COMMIT: The commit ID which was checked out for this repository, or an empty string if no
commit was given in the config file.
• KAS_REPO_BRANCH: The branch which was checked out for this repository, or an empty string if no
branch was given in the config file.
• KAS_REPO_TAG: The tag which was checked out for this repository, or an empty string if no tag was
given in the config file.
• KAS_REPO_REFSPEC: The refspec which was checked out for this repository, or an empty string if no
refspec was given in the config file. This variable is obsolete and will be removed when support for
refspec keys is removed as well. Migrate your repos to commit/branch and use the related variables
instead.
