Plugin Command Flags

Plugins can use the flags that are used by native ephemeral-iam commands. To see an example of this, reference the Command with flags example.

Here are the available flags and their intended usage.

Adding custom flags to plugin commands

Custom flags can be added to plugin commands just like any other Cobra command as long as the name/shortform does not conflict with an existing flag.

Example:

func pluginFuncWithEiamFlags() *cobra.Command {
    cmd := &cobra.Command{
        Use: "example",
        RunE: func(cmd *cobra.command, args []string) error {
            if Verbose {
                fmt.Println("Verbose output enabled")
            }
            return nil
        }
    }

    cmd.Flags().BoolVarP(&Verbose, "verbose", "v", false, "Enable verbose output")

	return cmd
}
