envoy: Initialize a configuration file.
$ envoy init ${host_name}
try on your machine
The command "envoy init ${host_name}" initializes the configuration for the Envoy proxy based on the provided host name.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "envoy" refers to the Envoy proxy executable.
- "init" is a command or subcommand that is used to initialize the configuration files for Envoy.
- "${host_name}" is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual host name or hostname variable. The host name is typically the DNS name or IP address of the machine where the Envoy proxy will be running.
By running this command with the appropriate host name, Envoy will generate the necessary initial configuration files required for setting up and running the proxy. These configuration files are commonly used to define the desired behavior and routing rules for the Envoy proxy.
