kosli request approval

Request an approval of a deployment of an artifact to an environment in Kosli.

This command is deprecated. Deprecated commands will be removed in a future release.

Synopsis

kosli request approval [IMAGE-NAME | FILE-PATH | DIR-PATH] [flags]

Request an approval of a deployment of an artifact to an environment in Kosli.
The request should be reviewed in the Kosli UI.

The artifact fingerprint can be provided directly with the --fingerprint flag, or calculated based on --artifact-type flag.

Artifact type can be one of: “file” for files, “dir” for directories, “oci” for container images in registries or “docker” for local docker images.

Note: --artifact-type=docker reads the image’s repo digest via the local Docker daemon. The image must have been pushed to or pulled from a registry for a repo digest to exist; a freshly built image (just docker build) will not have one. If the image is already in a registry, prefer --artifact-type=oci, which fetches the digest directly from the registry without needing a local Docker daemon.

Flags

Flag	Description
-t, --artifact-type string	The type of the artifact to calculate its SHA256 fingerprint. One of: [oci, docker, file, dir]. Only required if you want Kosli to calculate the fingerprint for you (i.e. when you don’t specify ‘--fingerprint’ on commands that allow it).
-d, --description string	[optional] The approval description.
-D, --dry-run	[optional] Run in dry-run mode. When enabled, no data is sent to Kosli and the CLI exits with 0 exit code regardless of any errors.
-e, --environment string	[defaulted] The environment the artifact is approved for. (defaults to all environments)
-x, --exclude strings	[optional] The comma separated list of directories and files to exclude from fingerprinting. Can take glob patterns. Only applicable for --artifact-type dir.
-F, --fingerprint string	[conditional] The SHA256 fingerprint of the artifact. Only required if you don’t specify ‘--artifact-type’.
-f, --flow string	The Kosli flow name.
-h, --help	help for approval
--newest-commit string	[defaulted] The source commit sha for the newest change in the deployment. Can be any commit-ish. (default “HEAD”)
--oldest-commit string	[conditional] The source commit sha for the oldest change in the deployment. Can be any commit-ish. Only required if you don’t specify ‘--environment’.
--registry-password string	[conditional] The container registry password or access token. Only required if you want to read container image SHA256 digest from a remote container registry.
--registry-username string	[conditional] The container registry username. Only required if you want to read container image SHA256 digest from a remote container registry.
--repo-root string	[defaulted] The directory where the source git repository is available. (default ”.”)
-u, --user-data string	[optional] The path to a JSON file containing additional data you would like to attach to the approval.

Flags inherited from parent commands

Flag	Description
-a, --api-token string	The Kosli API token.
-c, --config-file string	[optional] The Kosli config file path. (default “kosli”)
--debug	[optional] Print debug logs to stdout.
-H, --host string	[defaulted] The Kosli endpoint. (default “https://app.kosli.com”)
--http-proxy string	[optional] The HTTP proxy URL including protocol and port number. e.g. http://proxy-server-ip:proxy-port
-r, --max-api-retries int	[defaulted] How many times should API calls be retried when the API host is not reachable. (default 3)
--org string	The Kosli organization.
-q, --quiet	[optional] Suppress non-critical warning messages. Errors and normal output are not affected. If both --quiet and --debug are set, --debug wins.

Examples Use Cases

These examples all assume that the flags --api-token, --org, --host, (and --flow, --trail when required), are set/provided.
