I see mention of the -a/–all option here so I tried
$ knife data bag from file -all --secret-file
But I get no command feedback, netiher pass nor fail. Moreover, the NO data bag is uploaded.

Are the files actually different to what exists on the server? I know with
knife upload it only outputs if it creates or modifies a file. What's the
exit code of the command?

I’m not using “knife upload” since that command doesn’t seem to have the option to upload encrypted data bags. Rather “knife data bag.” There are NO data bags in the server. Like I said, the command gives NO feedback.

Knife upload will upload encrypted data bags. You just need to "knife data
bag edit somebag someitem --secret-file=somesecret" and then "knife data
bag show somebag someitem -Fj > someitem.json" (note, not specifying the
secret file, otherwise you'll decrypt it). That's how we handle it, at
least... that way the encrypted bags are still inside git, which is our
Source of Truth, but only in the encrypted form.
Being able to encrypt the bags without going through "knife data bag edit"
would be much preferable, however.

Here’s part of the docs
$ knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME_or_PATH

This argument has the following options:
-a, --all

this was the point of my question. I was trying to figure out a way, if it
exists, to NOT do this. The docs seem to suggest there’s a way, but are
they misleading and there really isn’t one?Here’s part of the docs
$ knife data bag from file DATA_BAG_NAME_or_PATH
Options
This argument has the following options:
-a, --all
Use to upload all data bags found at the specified path.

Chef server?Knife upload will upload encrypted data bags. You just need to "knife data
bag edit somebag someitem --secret-file=somesecret" and then "knife data
bag show somebag someitem -Fj > someitem.json" (note, not specifying the
secret file, otherwise you'll decrypt it). That's how we handle it, at
least... that way the encrypted bags are still inside git, which is our
Source of Truth, but only in the encrypted form.Being able to encrypt the bags without going through "knife data bag edit"
would be much preferable, however.--

knife upload it only outputs if it creates or modifies a file. What's the
exit code of the command?On Mon, Apr 27, 2015 at 12:09 PM, Fouts, Chris Chris.Fouts@sensus.com
wrote:I see mention of the -a/--all option here so I tried
$ knife data bag from file –all --secret-file
But I get no command feedback, netiher pass nor fail. Moreover, the NO
