Other solution for genconfig which is marked as deprecated

martin-weber opened this issue · comments

Hello,
We are using iotedgedev genconfig in a automation script which sets up the development environment in EFLOW.
We generate the deployment manifest from a deployment template and use then the manifest with az iot edge set-modules --content $deploymentManifestFilePath --device-id $deviceId --hub-name $iotHubName to setup the required configuration.

iotedgedev genconfig is a great help for us as it reduces an error prone manual step in vscode to generate the deployment manifest from the template.

Now we see the warning:
DeprecationWarning: The command 'genconfig' is deprecated

What is the suggested alternative to generate the deployment manifest from the deployment template?

We would greatly appreciate, if if this feature will not be deprecated or there is another solution to generate the deployment manifest from the template in a script.

Thanks a lot.

@martin-weber please use 'iotedgedev solution genconfig' instead. There is duplication of commands that we are trying to cleanup and we advise users to use the subgroup commands. At this time there is no change in functionality and both main and subcommands point to the same functionality.

@marianan @martin-weber this issue was resolved with #593

Thanks a lot for the clarification and the great tools.
