overrides example

What's the correct way to use the --overrides option?

For example: The following works inside the .nexus_cli

url: "http://localhost:8081/nexus/"
username: "admin"
password: "admin123"

However none of the following examples work from the command line

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username"=>"admin","url"=>"http://localhost:8081/nexus/","password"=>"admin123"

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username"=>"admin","url"=>"http://localhost:8081/nexus/","password"=>"admin123"

nexus-cli get_users --overrides={"username"=>"admin","url"=>"http://localhost:8081/nexus/","password"=>"admin123"}

nexus-cli get_users --overrides={"username":"admin","url":"http://localhost:8081/nexus/","password":"admin123"}

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username":"admin" --overrides="url":"http://localhost:8081/nexus/" --overrides="password":"admin123"

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username"=>"admin" --overrides="url"=>"http://localhost:8081/nexus/" --overrides="password"=>"admin123"

The closest commands are:

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username":"admin" --overrides="url":"http://localhost:8081/nexus/"
The server responded with a 401 status code which is unexpected. Please submit a bug.

and

nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username":"admin","url":"http://localhost:8081/nexus/"

What is the correct way to pass in an override?

[mwiczynski-cartera]

Try one pair of double quotes around entire overrides arg.. like this:
nexus-cli get_users --overrides="username:admin,url:http://localhost:8081/nexus/,password:admin123"
