check the project without contacting a host

Usage

winch validate [flags]

Validate loads the project and checks it. It connects to no host.

It checks the schemas, the names, the module arguments, the variable reads and values, the expressions, and the templates.

It loads the inventory of --inventory, or of inventory in winch.yaml. Without both, it checks every inventory.

It does not decrypt secrets and needs no age key. It checks that each !secret is an age file. It warns about a secret whose number of recipients differs from the recipients list, and names winch secret rekey.

A --set value parses as YAML. Quote a value that YAML would change: --set 'vars.php_version="8.0"'.
