pi group edit

Command Help

> pi group edit -h
Usage: pi group edit [-h] [--template TEMPLATE] identifier

Description: Edit an existing Group. The command puts the Group specification
into a temporary file and invokes the editor specified by the EDITOR
environment variable. Saving the file edits the Group.

Positional arguments:
  identifier            The name of the Group being edited.

Optional arguments:
  --template TEMPLATE, -t TEMPLATE
                        Use the specified template to edit the Group. The
                        template is an ASCII file that defines the Group. This
                        can be used to edit Groups with a script and avoid the
                        interactive editor. To read the template from STDIN,
                        set TEMPLATE='-'.
  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit

Examples:
# Invoke the editor to modify Group staff.
  pi group edit staff

# Modify Group staff using the staff.info template.
  pi group edit -t staff.info staff

# Modify Group staff using redirected STDOUT from script as template.
  edit_group.py | pi group edit -t - staff
