Remote Manifests

It is a very common practice to manage K8s manifests, ECS definitions from a git remote file. These manifest files often use first gen expressions within them. Since Git remote files are outside the control of harness these files are not migrated. In order to convert first gen expressions to next gen expressions we can use the upgrade tool to achieve the same.

The command replaces first gen expressions found in all files in current & subdirectories. By default, we only process the files with following file extensions yml, yaml & json.

harness-upgrade expressions 

Do a dry run on the files without replacing any CG expressions

harness-upgrade expressions --dry-run

To provide custom files extensions

harness-upgrade expressions --extensions yml,txt,xml

Secrets referenced in these files are converted to camel case to align with the migrator. You can provide the scope of the secrets using the --secret-scope flag.

harness-upgrade --secret-scope account expressions

To provide custom expressions or override default expressions

harness-upgrade --custom-expressions /path/to/file.yaml expressions 

The above command expects a yaml file whose contents are simple key values of first-gen expressions & string to replace that expression with. A sample override file would look like this -

appName: <+org.name>
service.name: <+project.name>
