Providers

Honey discovers hosts from several backends in parallel. Each page below covers minimal authentication, a minimal YAML block, and CLI flags when you run without a config file.

Use honey search --provider <id> to limit to one type. YAML backend lists use the backends.<kind> key shown on each page.

Config file

Backends live under backends: in honey YAML (version: 1). Each entry needs a unique name when you use --backends. CLI query flags (for example --gcp-project) override per-backend YAML at search time.

See the main documentation home for config lookup order (HONEY_CONFIG, ~/.config/honey/config.yaml, etc.).
