12g

Administration tool for development and devops, according to the 12factor principles as applied by Grrr

Install

$ npm install -g 12g

Commands

Display help

$ 12g -h [command] [subcommand]

Environment

Create a template .env file

$ 12g env template

This will create a copy of your local .env file, named .env.template, with all values emptied.

Get variable from a .env file

$ 12g env get -e [target environment name] --var=DB_HOST

This will print the value from the environment variable set in the .env file on the target. Will return undefined if the variable is not set.

List variables from a .env file

$ 12g env list -e [target environment name]

This will list the variables from the .env file on the target, without quotes or comments. Target environment is probably development, staging, production, etcetera, depending on your setup.

If the targeted environment is remote, an SSH connection will be attempted, if Capistrano configuration can be found.

Json

Default the values will be pretty-printed, but listing in JSON is also possible:

$ 12g env list -e [target environment name] -o json

-o or --output sets the output format.

Current environment

$ 12g env name

This will print out the name of the current environment.

Docker shortcut

Use 12g dock [command] to execute a Docker command directly on your Docker Compose webserver. It has to be running and it will have to adhere to the naming standards as we use them at @grrr-amsterdam, which is basically calling your httpd service 'web'.

Examples:

$ 12g dock bash
$ 12g dock g spawn
$ 12g dock g snippet create

Shorthand

You can use shorthand syntax in the provided argument for common environment names:

• p becomes production
• s becomes staging
• i becomes integration
• d becomes development
• t becomes testing

For instance:

$ 12g env list -e s

To list the environment for staging.
