The port on which chef-zero will listen.

--[no-]color

-s URL, --server-url URL

-y, --yes

against the Chef server to also work against the local chef-repo.

Examples

To view information about a client:

knife raw /clients/<client_name>

To view information about a node:

knife raw /nodes/<node_name>

To delete a data bag, enter a command similar to:

$ knife raw -m DELETE /data/foo

to return something similar to:

{
"name":"foo",
"json_class":"Chef::DataBag",
"chef_type":"data_bag"
}
