Cloud Foundry CLI Copy Env Plugin

Build Status

Cloud Foundry CLI plugin to export application VCAP_SERVICES and VCAP_APPLICATION onto the local machine.

Applications running on Cloud Foundry rely on the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable to provide service credentials. Application specific configuration environment is provided in VCAP_APPLICATION.

When running applications locally for development and testing, it's useful to have the same VCAP_SERVICES values available in the local environment to simulate running on the host platform.

This plugin will export the remote application environment variables, available using cf env, into a format that makes it simple to expose those same values locally. This plugin will only export VCAP_SERVICES by default. To include VCAP_APPLICATION as well use the --all option.

Install

$ go get github.com/jthomas/copyenv
$ cf install-plugin $GOPATH/bin/copyenv

or

$ make install-plugin

Usage

$ cf copyenv APP_NAME

export VCAP_SERVICES='...'

The plugin output needs to be evaluated in your shell to set up the local environment variables.

Using eval:

$ eval `cf copyenv APP_NAME` 

Using a temporary file:

$ cf copyenv APP_NAME > temp.json
$ source temp.json

You can obtain additional information with flags.

$ cf copyenv APP_NAME -all

export VCAP_SERVICES='...'
export VCAP_APPLICATION='...'

Uninstall

$ cf uninstall-plugin copyenv
