It can be used to back up data on the Chef server, inspect the state of one or more files, or to extract out-of-process changes users may have made to files on the Chef server, such as if a user made a change that bypassed version source control. This subcommand is often used in conjunction with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">knife</span> <span class="pre">diff</span></tt>, which can be used to see exactly what changes will be downloaded, and then <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">knife</span> <span class="pre">upload</span></tt>, which does the opposite of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">knife</span> <span class="pre">download</span></tt>.</p> -<div class="section" id="syntax"> -<h2>Syntax<a class="headerlink" href="#syntax" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> -<p>This subcommand has the following syntax:</p> -<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife download <span class="o">[</span>PATTERN...<span class="o">]</span> <span class="o">(</span>options<span class="o">)</span> -</pre></div> -</div> -</div> -<div class="section" id="options"> -<h2>Options<a class="headerlink" href="#options" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2> -<div class="admonition note"> -<p class="first admonition-title">Note</p> -<p class="last">Review the list of <a class="reference internal" href="knife_common_options.html"><em>common options</em></a> available to this (and all) knife subcommands and plugins.</p> -</div> -<p>This subcommand has the following options:</p> -<dl class="docutils"> -<dt><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--chef-repo-path</span> <span class="pre">PATH</span></tt></dt> -<dd>The path to the chef-repo.
