Feature Toggles

Resources can be imported separately to your config file with the cli flag -r or -resources, which is a useful way to switch out resources with common names based on your chosen environment. For example, with a main configuration file config.yaml:

pipeline:
  processors:
    - resource: get_foo

And then two resource files, one stored at the path ./staging/request.yaml:

processor_resources:
  - label: get_foo
    http:
      url: http://example.com/foo
      verb: POST
      headers:
        SomeThing: "set-to-this"
        SomeThingElse: "set-to-something-else"

And another stored at the path ./production/request.yaml:

processor_resources:
  - label: get_foo
    http:
      url: http://example.com/bar
      verb: PUT
      headers:
        Desires: "are-empty"

We can select our chosen resource by changing which file we import, either running:

wombat -r ./staging/request.yaml -c ./config.yaml

Or:

wombat -r ./production/request.yaml -c ./config.yaml

These flags also support wildcards, which allows you to import an entire directory of resource files like wombat -r "./staging/*.yaml" -c ./config.yaml. You can find out more about configuration resources in the resources document.
