Trigger
=======
Description
-----------
cdist supports triggering for host installation/configuration using trigger command.
This command starts trigger server at management node, for example:
.. code-block:: sh
$ cdist trigger -b -v
This will start cdist trigger server in verbose mode. cdist trigger server accepts
simple requests for configuration and for installation:
* :strong:`/cdist/install/.*` for installation
* :strong:`/cdist/config/.*` for configuration.
Machines can then trigger cdist trigger server with appropriate requests.
If the request is, for example, for installation (:strong:`/cdist/install/`)
then cdist trigger server will start install command for the client host using
parameters specified at trigger server startup. For the above example that means
that client will be installed using default initial manifest.
When triggered cdist will try to reverse DNS lookup for host name and if
host name is dervied then it is used for running cdist config. If no
host name is resolved then IP address is used.
This command returns the following response codes to client requests:
* 200 for success
* 599 for cdist run errors
* 500 for cdist/server errors.

TRIGGER
-------
Start trigger (simple http server) that waits for connections. When host
connects then it triggers config or install command and then cdist
config/install is executed which configures/installs host.
When triggered cdist will try to reverse DNS lookup for host name and if
host name is dervied then it is used for running cdist config. If no
host name is resolved then IP address is used.
Request path recognizes following requests:
* :strong:`/cdist/config/.*` for config
* :strong:`/cdist/install/.*` for install.
This command returns the following response codes to client requests:
* 200 for success
* 599 for cdist run errors
* 500 for cdist/server errors.
**-6, --ipv6**
Listen to both IPv4 and IPv6 (instead of only IPv4)
**-b, --beta**
Enable beta functionality.
**-C CACHE_PATH_PATTERN, --cache-path-pattern CACHE_PATH_PATTERN**
Sepcify custom cache path pattern. It can also be set by
CDIST_CACHE_PATH_PATTERN environment variable. If it is not set then
default hostdir is used. For more info on format see
