Validate using Powershell
Use the Confirm-JDResource powershell function to validate a potential deployment. The Type parameter can be used to validate resources of just a specific type. This is useful if you have many resources in your file and you do not want to validate all of them.
Example to validate a single deployment file containing all configuration and resource objects.
Confirm-JDResource -Type all -DeploymentFile "deployment.yml"
Example to validate multiple deployment files collectively containing all configuration and resource objects. Use separate common files for Setting, Connection and even Variable is a great way to start to modularise your deployments.
Confirm-JDResource -Type all -DeploymentFile "setting.yml","connection.yml","resources.yml"
Example to validate multiple deployment files in a single directory collectively containing all configuration and resource objects.
Confirm-JDResource -Type all -DeploymentDir "c:\mydeploymentfiles"
Using verbose will instruct JustDeploy to display additional information to help with debugging should anything fail.
