_inputs_from_glob

Table of contents

Description:

This key defines globs that filter which files CloudCannon should use for Input configuration.

Values in this array are relative to the root of your repository (i.e., /, not the value of source) and must end in the file extension .cloudcannon.inputs.yml.

You can use this key anywhere you would use the _inputs key in the configuration cascade.

This key has no default.

Show examplesHide examples

In this example, we have several Input Configuration Files in the .cloudcannon/inputs/ folder, with each file containing multiple Input definitions. The value of the _inputs_from_glob key tells CloudCannon to only use the seo.cloudcannon.inputs.yml and blog-details.cloudcannon.inputs.yml files in that folder.
