oslopolicy-policy-generator [-h] [--config-dir DIR] [--config-file PATH]


                            [--namespace NAMESPACE]

DESCRIPTION

The oslopolicy-policy-generator command can be used to generate a policy file that shows the effective policy in use. This is generated by merging the registered defaults and policies loaded from a configuration file.

OPTIONS

-h, --help
Show help message and exit.

--config-dir DIR
Path to a config directory to pull *.conf files from. This file set is sorted, so as to provide a predictable parse order if individual options are overridden. The set is parsed after the file(s) specified via previous --config-file, arguments hence overridden options in the directory take precedence.

This option must be set from the command-line.


--config-file PATH
Path to a config file to use. Multiple config files can be specified, with values in later files taking precedence. Defaults to None. This option must be set from the command-line.

--namespace NAMESPACE
Option namespace under "oslo.policy.enforcer" in which to look for a policy.Enforcer.

--output-file OUTPUT_FILE
Path of the file to write to. Defaults to stdout.

--exclude-deprecated True
Option allowing the rendered output to be generated without deprecated policy information.

EXAMPLES

oslopolicy-policy-generator --namespace keystone

oslopolicy-policy-generator \


  --namespace keystone \


  --output-file keystone-policy.yaml
