NAME

App::Cme::Command::modify - Modify the configuration of an application

VERSION

version 1.022

SYNOPSIS

  # modify configuration with command line
  cme modify dpkg source 'format="(3.0) quilt"'

  # likewise with an application that accepts file override
  cme modify dpkg-copyright 'Comment="Modified with cme"'

DESCRIPTION

Modify a configuration file with the values passed on the command line. These command must follow the syntax defined in Config::Model::Loader (which is similar to the output of cme dump command)

Example:

   cme modify dpkg source format="(3.0) quilt"
   cme modify multistrap my_mstrap.conf sections:base source="ftp.fr.debian.org"

Some application like dpkg-copyright allows you to override the configuration file name. You must then use "-file" option:

   cme modify dpkg-copyright -file ubuntu/copyright 'Comment="Silly example"

Common options

See ``Global Options'' in cme.
