jaas plugin

The jaas plugin is a CLI tool that acts as a plugin for the juju CLI and provides extra functionality in a JAAS system.

This document explains how to install the jaas plugin and how it works.

Installation

The jaas plugin is distributed as a Snap.

sudo snap install jaas --channel=3/stable

How it works

When you install both the Juju and JAAS snaps, they automatically connect via snap’s content-interface enabling new commands on the juju CLI.

To view a list of all the newly available commands run juju jaas -h.

Plugin commands can either be executed with the jaas subcommand or directly, as follows:

$ juju jaas <command>
or
$ juju <command>

The second form is preferred and used throughout our documentation.

These commands are intended to extend Juju’s capabilities but note that some commands require elevated permissions.
