Type:
|
|
- xml/
|
|
|
|
- parameters/
|
|
- optional_parameters
|
|
me: too long
|
|
|
|
User interested it type:
|
|
|
|
- which arguments are available
|
|
- ls /path/to/type (steven)
|
|
|
|
Steven / proposal:
|
|
|
|
- manifest/gencode: .meta
|
|
- attribute directly in dir
|
|
|
|
"cdist-help" <type bla>
|
|
|
|
- if no direct path
|
|
|
|
|

Doc proposal (Nico):
|
|
|
|
man cdist-type-<name>
|
|
|
|
Directory structure:
|
|
"easy to ls -lR and understand what it does"
|
|
|
|
ls -lR $(cdist-type-path "typename")/meta/
|
|
|
|
ls -lR $(cdist-path type "typename")/meta/
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
What consumes most type?
|
|
|
|
- Writing types, because they are functionality
|
|
- Define attributes
|
|
- required/optional
|
|
|
|
Type documentation
|
|
|
|
$type/.meta/required_parameters/path contains
|
|
"Path in which file is created"
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
Doc of every type:
|
|
|
|
- required/optional parameters
|
|
- description
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
! Validation of type input:
|
|
|
|
Not only required/optional parameters:
|
|
|
|
- handling of either content/source arguments
|
|
|
|
- validate script in type?
|
|
- seperate validation from manifest may be senseful
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Explorer per type?
|
|
|
|
- helpful or evil?
|
|
- helps to summarise/get information near ressource that needs it
|
|
- emphasises type specific explorers
|
|
-> explorer should be reusable by everybody!
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
Explorer delivers facts
|
|
|
|
- central repo
|
|
- not being able to override
|
|
|
|
- may be helpful to override facts for debugging (i.e. os=redhat)
|
|
- one explorer returns one fact
|
|
- facts via environment variables
|
|
- proposal steven: UPPER_CASE
|
|
- __fact_os (Nico)
|
|
|
|
- DEFINE path_to_explorer
|
|
- DEFINE explorer
