<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>

<dt><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--[no-]recurse</span></tt></dt>
<dd>Use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--recurse</span></tt> to list dependencies recursively.

<h2>Examples<a class="headerlink" href="#examples" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>The following examples show how to use this Knife subcommand:</p>
<p><strong>Find dependencies for a node</strong></p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps nodes/node_name.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Find dependencies for a role</strong></p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps roles/role_name.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Find dependencies for a cookbook</strong></p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps cookbooks/cookbook_name.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Find dependencies for an environment</strong></p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps environments/environment_name.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Find dependencies for a combination of nodes, roles, and so on</strong></p>
<p>To find the dependencies for a combination of nodes, cookbooks, roles, and/or environments:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps cookbooks/git.json cookbooks/github.json roles/base.json environments/desert.json nodes/mynode.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Use a wildcard</strong></p>
<p>A wildcard can be used to return all of the child nodes. For example, all of the environments:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps environments/*.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Return as tree</strong></p>
<p>Use the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--tree</span></tt> option to view the results with structure:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps roles/webserver.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>to return something like:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre>roles/webserver.json
  roles/base.json
    cookbooks/github
      cookbooks/git
    cookbooks/users
  cookbooks/apache2
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Pass knife deps output to knife upload</strong></p>
<p>The output of <strong>knife deps</strong> can be passed to <strong>knife upload</strong>:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife upload <span class="sb">`</span>knife deps nodes/*.json
</pre></div>
</div>
<p><strong>Pass knife deps output to knife xargs</strong></p>
<p>The output of <strong>knife deps</strong> can be passed to <strong>knife xargs</strong>:</p>
<div class="highlight-bash"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$ </span>knife deps nodes/*.json | xargs knife upload
</pre></div>
</div>
