The options specified with double-dashes (--) can also be specified via:
Environment variables: MZCLI_PORT, MZCLI_HOST, MZCLI_USER, MZCLI_PASSWORD, and MZCLI_SCHEMA. The environment variables need to be set for the machine that is running the mzcli client.
A property file called mzcli.properties with these property names and default values:
mzcli.user=mzadmin
mzcli.schema=http
mzcli.port=9000
mzcli.host=localhost
mzcli searches for this file in MZ_HOME/etc (if MZ_HOME exists) or in the local folder (if MZ_HOME does not exist). If the mzcli.properties file is not present, it is created with default values.If an option is not specified, its default value is used.
A profile containing one or several installations with different options:
You can also use a simplified user/password syntax, just enter the username and password in a single parameter together with the command. When the command is executed, the command prompt is returned to the Unix shell.
Priority
Since the options can be set in various ways, the following priority applies:
The priority is as follows, ranking lowest to highest:
Values from the mzcli.properties file
Environment variables
Options specified when out of interactive mode
Username and password specified using the [<username/password>] syntax
Values derived from the default profile.
Values derived from the --profile option.
Command Line Attributes.
Options specified when in interactive mode
Lower priority means that it can be overridden by anything with higher priority.
Overwrite option
If a command generates files, mzcli saves them to disk. Use the -overwrite option to save a file to disk even if a file with the same name already exists. If the -overwrite option is not specified, and a file with the same file name exists, mzcli displays an error message and terminates without saving the file.
