Local cache overview
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
While executing, cdist stores data to local cache. Currently this feature is
|
|
one way only. That means that cdist does not use stored data for future runs.
|
|
Anyway, those data can be used for debugging cdist, debugging types and
|
|
debugging after host configuration fails.
|
|
|
|
Local cache is saved under $HOME/.cdist/cache directory, one directory entry
|
|
for each host. Subdirectory path is specified by
|
|
:strong:`-C/--cache-path-pattern` option, :strong:`cache_path_pattern`
|
|
configuration option or by using :strong:`CDIST_CACHE_PATH_PATTERN`
|
|
environment variable.
|
|
|
|
For more info on cache path pattern see :strong:`CACHE PATH PATTERN FORMAT`
|
|
section in cdist man page.

|
bin
|
|

|
|
|
|
conf
|
|
dynamically determined cdist conf directory, union of all specified
|
|
conf directories
|
|
|
|
explorer
|
|
directory containing global explorer named files containing explorer output
|
|
after running on target host
|
|
|
|
messages
|
|
file containing messages
|
|
|
|
object
|
|
directory containing subdirectory for each cdist object
|
|
|
|
object_marker

|
|
|
|
stderr
|
|

|
|
|
|
stdout
|
|
directory containing init manifest and remote stdout stream output
|
|
|
|
target_host
|
|
file containing target host of this cdist run, as specified when running
|
|
cdist
|
|
|
|
typeorder
|
|

|
|
generated
|
