rpk shadow update

Update a Shadow Link.

By default, this command opens your default editor with the current Shadow Link configuration. Update the fields you want to change, save the file, and close the editor.

Alternatively, use the --config-file flag to apply a configuration file directly without opening an editor, which is useful for scripted workflows.

In both modes the submitted configuration replaces the entire Shadow Link configuration: any field omitted is reset to its default value. The modes differ only in where the configuration comes from; the editor is seeded with the current configuration, while a configuration file is applied as-is. The name in the configuration file must match LINK_NAME.

Set passwords appear in the editor as the placeholder '<redacted>'; leave the placeholder untouched to keep the existing password, or replace it to set a new one.

You cannot change the Shadow Link name. If you need to rename a Shadow Link, delete it and create a new one with the desired name.

The editor respects your EDITOR environment variable. If EDITOR is not set, the command uses vi on Unix-like systems.
