< p > Cdist interacts with the target host in two ways:< / p >
< ul class = "simple" >
< li > it executes code (__remote_exec)< / li >
< li > and it copies files (__remote_copy)< / li >
< / ul >
< p > By default this is accomplished with ssh and scp respectively.
The default implementations used by cdist are:< / p >
< div class = "highlight-default" > < div class = "highlight" > < pre > < span > < / span > < span class = "n" > __remote_exec< / span > < span class = "p" > :< / span > < span class = "n" > ssh< / span > < span class = "o" > -< / span > < span class = "n" > o< / span > < span class = "n" > User< / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "n" > root< / span >
< span class = "n" > __remote_copy< / span > < span class = "p" > :< / span > < span class = "n" > scp< / span > < span class = "o" > -< / span > < span class = "n" > o< / span > < span class = "n" > User< / span > < span class = "o" > =< / span > < span class = "n" > root< / span >
< / pre > < / div >
< / div >
< p > The user can override these defaults by providing custom implementations and
passing them to cdist with the --remote-exec and/or --remote-copy arguments.< / p >
< p > For __remote_exec, the custom implementation must behave as if it where ssh.
2016-11-29 06:40:57 +00:00
For __remote_copy, it must behave like scp.
Please notice, custom implementations should work like ssh/scp so __remote_copy
must support IPv6 addresses enclosed in square brackets. For __remote_exec you
must take into account that for some options (like -L) IPv6 addresses can be
specified by enclosed in square brackets (see < strong > ssh< / strong > (1) and
< strong > scp< / strong > (1)).< / p >
2016-11-27 15:32:05 +00:00
< p > With this simple interface the user can take total control of how cdist
interacts with the target when required, while the default implementation
remains as simple as possible.< / p >
