NAME
----
cdist-config - Read basic cdist configuration


DESCRIPTION
-----------
Cdist-config is sourced by cdist programs and provides hints on where to find
types, manifests, etc. Generally speaking, it's just usable from within the
core and is only of interest for cdist-developers.


ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
---------------------
The following list contains environment variables that are known
to be changed by users in various situations. To change the variable,
use your current shell and export it, so all cdist-binaries know about it.

__cdist_tmp_base_dir::
   Normally this points to /tmp. In case /tmp is not suitable for
   cdist (i.e. has noexec flag setup) you can change this variable
   to point to a better location.


EXAMPLES
--------

If /tmp has the noexec flag, you can use $HOME/.tmp for instance:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
export __cdist_tmp_base_dir=$HOME/.tmp
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
