Data Packs

Clamity data packs are a means of providing contextual data associated with the platform or platform sub-component. As infrastructure resources are deployed in an aabstracted way, the details of the environment (things like account numbers, server endpoints, resource IDs, etc...) aren't readily available in static configurations. Clamity's solution for working with contexts like this is to identity a current data pack. A typical example could be a platform that defines a production and a development (non-production) set of resources in which services operate. By installing production and development data packs, one could easily change context between them.

There's only support for git repository data packs where installation of one is effectively cloning a repo and keeping it current is automatically handled by running git pulls when info is requested from it. Not overly efficient but good enough for now.

Use the clamity context data-pack command for more.
