Astrona validate

astrona validate

Check a lab config for mistakes without running anything

Synopsis

Check a lab config (-c/--file/--git) without creating anything: unknown fields (typos like waitfor that would otherwise be silently ignored, with a did-you-mean), runtime/addon/port-forward/waitFor rules, validation check types, and that every local script, manifest and doc file it references exists.

Exits non-zero on any ✗ — suitable as a CI step for lab repositories. For editor autocompletion, see the JSON Schema in the lab config reference.

astrona validate [lab] [flags]

Options inherited from parent commands

      --accept-terms      Accept this CLI's usage terms and data-loss risk notice; required on each operational CI command (read: astrona terms)
  -c, --config string     Path or URL to the lab config directory (with --git: a subdirectory within the cloned repo) (default ".")
  -f, --file string       Configuration file name override (default "config.yaml")
      --git string        Git repository URL to clone/pull (https://, git@host:, or ssh://) — --config then selects a subdirectory within it
      --git-ref string    Git branch, tag, or commit to check out (used with --git; default: the repo's default branch)
      --headless          Disable the terminal UI and CLI prompts; run/reset skip login reminders and new account sessions
      --install-version   If the lab needs another astrona release (astronaVersion) that isn't installed, install it without asking — for CI
      --trust             Approve running a remote (--git / URL) lab without asking — for CI; review the lab first
      --update-check      Check for new CLI releases (disabled in CI, without a terminal, or by ASTRONA_NO_UPDATE_CHECK) (default true)
      --verbose           Stream the full output of every underlying command instead of the compact step view
