You can manage values separately from your DevOps as Code YAML files so that they can be pulled in when applying XL YAML files. DevOps as Code supports multiple methods to configure and manage values including a dedicated file format using the .xlvals extension, environment variables or by explicitly specifying a value in XL CLI command syntax.
You can follow deployment and release pipeline activities defined in your YAML files as they are executed by Deploy or Release using the output provided in the XL Command Line Interface (CLI).
The xl command line tool provides a fast and straightforward method for provisioning Digital.ai Release and Deploy servers using YAML files. The YAML files can include items such as releases, pipelines, applications, infrastructure, and target environments. In addition, the XL CLI is used for installing or upgrading Digital.ai Deploy and Release.
