## matrix_from_metadata_v3

matrix_from_metadata_v3 tool generates a github action matrix from the supported operating systems listed in the module's metadata.json.

How to use it:
in the project module root directory run `bundle exec matrix_from_metadata_v2`

### --exclude-platforms parameter

matrix_from_metadata_v2 accepts the `--exclude-platforms <JSON array>` argument in order to exclude some platforms from the matrix.

For example:

`$: bundle exec matrix_from_metadata_v2 --exclude-platforms '["debian-11","centos-8"]'`

> Note: The option value should be JSON string otherwise it will throw an error.
> The values provided in the json array are case-insensitive `["debian-11","centos-8"]'` or `["Debian-11","CentOS-8"]'` are treated as being the same.
### --custom-matrix parameter

matrix_from_metadata_v2 accepts the `--custom-matrix /path/to/matrix.json` argument in order to execute your test suite against a custom matrix. This is useful for use cases that do not fit the default matrix generated.

In order to use this new functionality, run:

`$: bundle exec matrix_from_metadata_v2 --custom-matrix matrix.json`

> Note: The file should contain a valid Array of JSON Objects (i.e. see [here](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet_litmus/blob/main/docs/custom_matrix.json)), otherwise it will throw an error.
in the project module root directory run `bundle exec matrix_from_metadata_v3`
