Configuring odo global settings
The global settings for odo can be found in preference.yaml file; which is located by default in the .odo directory of the user's HOME directory.
Example:
- Linux
- Windows
- Mac
A different location can be set for the preference.yaml by exporting GLOBALODOCONFIG in the user environment.
View the configuration#
To view the current configuration, run odo preference view.
Example:
Set a configuration#
To set a value for a preference key, run odo preference set <key> <value>.
Example:
Note that the preference key is case-insensitive.
Unset a configuration#
To unset a value of a preference key, run odo preference unset <key>; use -f flag to skip the confirmation.
Example:
Unsetting a preference key sets it to an empty value in the preference file. odo will use the default value for such configuration.
