NAME

blueprint-show - generate code from a blueprint

SYNOPSIS

blueprint show [-P|-C|-S|...] [-r] [-q] [name]

DESCRIPTION

blueprint-show generates code from the blueprint name as a Puppet module, a Chef cookbook, POSIX shell code, or an AWS CloudFormation template as indicated by the --puppet, --chef, --sh, or --cfn option. The generated code will be written to a file or directory in the current working directory and its name will be printed to standard output.

If none of --puppet, --chef, --sh, or --cfn are given, the raw JSON data structure that describes the blueprint is printed as described in blueprint(5).

The POSIX shell code generator is the only one prepared to handle files to be rendered from a template. All other code generators will print a warning and ignore such files.

If name is omitted or -, a blueprint is read from standard input and treated in the same manner. See blueprint(5) for the details of the format.
