Update a file in zookeeper with zkcli

Question

how do I update a file with zkCli without any third party tools? I can't seem to find any examples anywhere. I can connect to the zookeeper instance, create/delete nodes and etc... but can't figure out how to upload one file from the filesystem into it.

Thanks in advance

You can't do that with the standard zookeeper cli. You can do that with zk_shell. From their readme,

(CONNECTED) /> cp file:///etc/passwd zk://localhost:2181/passwd
