I have a salt master with four environments configured (base, dev, staging, prod)
I am initially trying to set a pillar item to track which envrionment is in use, namely core:env
However when I try to switch environments using the following command I always get the dev environment (it doesn't matter what env I put)
salt 'deploy*' pillar.get core:env saltenv=base
Here are my config files
/etc/salt/master (partial) file_roots: base: - /srv/salt/base/states dev: - /srv/salt/dev/states - /srv/salt/base/states staging: - /srv/salt/staging/states - /srv/salt/base/states prod: - /srv/salt/prod/states - /srv/salt/base/states pillar_roots: base: - /srv/pillar/base/pillars dev: - /srv/pillar/dev/pillars - /srv/pillar/base/pillars staging: - /srv/pillar/staging/pillars - /srv/pillar/base/pillars prod: - /srv/pillar/prod/pillars - /srv/pillar/base/pillars and my pillars
root@Salt-Master:/srv/pillar# cat base/pillars/top.sls base: 'deploy': - core root@Salt-Master:/srv/pillar# cat base/pillars/core.sls core: env: base root@Salt-Master:/srv/pillar# cat dev/pillars/top.sls dev: 'deploy': - core root@Salt-Master:/srv/pillar# cat dev/pillars/core.sls core: env: dev (the rest follow the same pattern)
I have other data in the base pillar that is being pulled out, but the core:env item won't change from dev.
