Usage

majordomus distribution build [OPTIONS]

Arguments

argumentvaluedefaultdescription
--repo <PATH> Start the search for the repository root here (default: the current directory) (accepted by every subcommand)
--discovery vcs | filesystem vcs How declarative files are enumerated (accepted by every subcommand)
  • vcs — Tracked files, through the version-control index (the layer's contract)
  • filesystem — A walk of the work tree with the same glob semantics; untracked files included
--strict flag Refuse to proceed when any file of the layer carries an error diagnostic (accepted by every subcommand)
--share <DIR> The tool distribution's share directory (kinds.yaml, schemas/); default: $MAJORDOMUS_SHARE, then the repository's own share/, then the one beside the executable (accepted by every subcommand)
--format text | json text Output shape (accepted by every subcommand)
  • text — Lines for a person
  • json — One JSON document, deterministic

Examples

  • What this executable is

    The crate version, the Rust target triple, the profile and the commit, all compiled in at build time. An installed binary answers this without a repository, a toolchain or git, which is what makes a support question answerable.

    $ majordomus distribution build

    Verified by the example tests: exits 0; prints version, target, commit.

Where this comes from

Declared once in apps/majordomus-cli/src/cli.rs: clap for the structure, typed Rust metadata beside it for the examples. This page, majordomus distribution build --help, docs/generated/cli.md and docs/generated/cli.json are projections of that one declaration.

The whole command line on one page: the registry's command-line page. The task lifecycle (init, start, finish, doctor, ...) belongs to the shell tool, a different program: Commands and its specification.
