~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
`sops` can insert to a specific part of a YAML or JSON document, by provided
the path and value in the `--insert` command line flag. This is useful to
insert specific values, like keys, without needing an editor.
`sops` can set a specific part of a YAML or JSON document, by providing
the path and value in the `--set` command line flag. This is useful to
set specific values, like keys, without needing an editor.
.. code:: bash
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --insert '["app2"]["key"]' '"app2keystringvalue"'
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --set '["app2"]["key"]' '"app2keystringvalue"'
The tree path syntax uses regular python dictionary syntax, without the
variable name. Insert to keys by naming them, and array elements by
variable name. Set to keys by naming them, and array elements by
numbering them.
.. code:: bash
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --insert '["an_array"][1]' '"secretuser2"'
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --set '["an_array"][1]' '"secretuser2"'
The value must be formatted as json.
.. code:: bash
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --insert '["an_array"][1]' '{"uid1":null,"uid2":1000,"uid3":["bob"]}'
$ sops ~/git/svc/sops/example.yaml --set '["an_array"][1]' '{"uid1":null,"uid2":1000,"uid3":["bob"]}'
