NAME
 | 
						|
----
 | 
						|
cdist-explorer - Explore the target systems
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
Cdist explorer are small shell scripts, which will be executed
 | 
						|
on the target host. The aim of the explorer is to give hints
 | 
						|
to types on how to act on the target system.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Explorer are located below $config_dir/explorer. Their name
 | 
						|
must be usable as a environment variable.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The shell script must output the result of its investigation
 | 
						|
to stdout. The output may be empty.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
In case of significant errors, the shell script may exit
 | 
						|
non-zero and return an error message on stderr, which
 | 
						|
will cause the cdist run to abort.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Explorers can reuse other explorers on the target system
 | 
						|
by calling $__cdist_explorer_path/<explorer_name>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
REQUIREMENTS
 | 
						|
------------
 | 
						|
The directory $__cdist_remote_base_dir must be creatable
 | 
						|
on the target host (i.e. requires read/write permission).
 | 
						|
