Outputs

ytt supports three different output destinations:

• stdout, which is default
  • All YAML documents are combined into one document set. Non-YAML files are not printed anywhere.
• output files, controlled via --output-files flag (v0.28.0+)
  • Output files will be added to given directory, preserving file names.
    • Example: ytt -f config.yml --output-files tmp/.
• output directory, controlled via --dangerous-emptied-output-directory flag
  • Given directory will be emptied out beforehand and output files will be added preserving file names.
    • Example: ytt -f config.yml --dangerous-emptied-output-directory tmp/ytt/.

If you want to control which files are included in the output use --file-mark 'something.yml:exclusive-for-output=true' flag to mark one or more files.
