This document defines how to continue work on cdist: This document defines how to continue work on cdist:
x Define how to get information from clients x general stuff
x Create shell script that creates code to run on client (cdist-build-explorer) x Define configuration paths (doc/internal/config-layout)
x Create configuration tree from manifest
x write binaries, which create the tree when called from manifest (cdist_tree_wrapper)
x Define configuration paths (doc/internal/config-layout)
x Redo explorers (see manpage)
x Parse configuration tree/objects recursively x get information from target (stage 1)
x can/may types modify tree? x Define how to get information from targets
-> yes, of everything a type created itself! x Create shell script that creates code to run on client (cdist-build-explorer)
x may open door for getting information from manifest / other stuff x Redo explorers (see manpage)
x run initial manifest (stage 2)
x Create configuration tree from manifest
x write binaries, which create the tree when called from manifest (cdist_tree_wrapper)
x Cleanly define paths for object creation, especially recursive calls - be able to run manifest of types (stage 3)
x doc/man/cdist-config-layout.text x Parse configuration tree/objects recursively
x can/may types modify tree?
-> yes, of everything a type created itself!
x may open door for getting information from manifest / other stuff
x Cleanly define paths for object creation, especially recursive calls
x doc/man/cdist-config-layout.text
x cd $__object_dir, before running manifest
x rename $__object_dir to $__object_base_dir
- document "cd $__object_dir, before running manifest" in doc/man/cdist-types.text
- use $type/manifest instead of $type/init
- document that $type/manifest is executed for every object/instance
- find $object_id in recursive runner (before merge)
- generate code to be executed on client - generate code to be executed on clients (stage 4)
x for one type (cdist-code-gen)
- check return codes - check return codes
- abort on first error? - abort on first error?
- execute code on client - execute code on client (stage 5)
/ Write at least one type (completly!) - Other stuff pre 1.0:
- Write some basic types
- doc 1.0: - file (with directory)
- cdist manpage (main manpage) - package
- cleanup following man + their tree: - doc cleanup for 1.0:
- cdist-language [CLEANUP AND REMOVE] - cdist manpage (main manpage)
- cdist-design.text [CLEANUP AND REMOVE] - cleanup following man + their tree:
- cdist-push-pull [WRITE] - cdist-language [CLEANUP AND REMOVE]
- cdist-quickstart [WRITE] - cdist-design.text [CLEANUP AND REMOVE]
- how to write a minimal host manifest - cdist-push-pull [WRITE]
- cdist-types [IMPORTANT] - cdist-quickstart [WRITE]
- only do necessary work [TYPE IMPLEMENTATION HINTS] - how to write a minimal host manifest
- install packages only if not existent - cdist-types [IMPORTANT]
- copy file only if different - only do necessary work [TYPE IMPLEMENTATION HINTS]
- cdist [IMPORTANT] - install packages only if not existent
- cdist-explorers - copy file only if different
- add terminology - cdist [IMPORTANT]
- define steps within configuration apply - cdist-explorers
- detect impossible/unsafe things: - add terminology
- creating a file twice - define steps within configuration apply
- installing and removing a package - detect impossible/unsafe things:
- and report location of occurence - creating a file twice
- parse afterwards? - installing and removing a package
- multi master setups - and report location of occurence
- templating - parse afterwards?
- how to define templates - multi master setups
- variable substitution from shell may be problematic - templating
- SHELL SCRIPTS! (executables? do not support?) - how to define templates
- stdout == output of template == what will be used - variable substitution from shell may be problematic
- cleanup website - SHELL SCRIPTS! (executables? do not support?)
- remove HACKERS_README - stdout == output of template == what will be used
- create doc/dev/HACKERS_README - cleanup website
- Add install target to Makefile - remove HACKERS_README
- create doc/dev/HACKERS_README
- Add install target to Makefile
- create cdist-config-init to create basic tree - create cdist-config-init to create basic tree
- types needed
- file (with directory)
- package
- Cleanup directories, cleanly document, what's possible
- rename $__object_dir to $__object_base_dir
- cd $__object_dir, before running manifest
&& document it in doc/man/cdist-types.text
- use $type/manifest instead of $type/init
- document that $type/manifest is executed for every object/instance
- find $object_id in recursive runner
