[[!meta title="Cdist 4.0.0pre1 released"]]
|
|
|
|
Here's a short overview about the changes found in version 4.0.0pre1:
|
|
|
|
* Core: Integrate initial install support
|
|
* Core: Integrate initial preos support
|
|
|
|
## Note for this release:
|
|
|
|
4.0-pre-not-stable is an experimental branch containing features for the
|
|
next big thing: cdist 4.
|
|
|
|
As you can see above, we have worked on cdist to allow not only
|
|
configuration of machines, but also installation of machines.
|
|
|
|
These features are poorly documented, the install
|
|
types are not cleaned up and there are many more ugly things.
|
|
|
|
Still, we wanted to give eager people access to our codebase,
|
|
to play around with it.
|
|
|
|
A minimal introduction for those keen on trying it out:
|
|
|
|
* host boots preos (you generate this by using "cdist preos")
|
|
* host gets installed using "cdist install"
|
|
* types that begin with **__install**_are by convention used for installing sytems
|
|
* install types contain the (empty) file "install"
|
|
|
|
More to come soon - planned release for cdist 4 is mid 2014.
