cdist-type__directory(7)
========================
NAME
----
cdist-type__directory - Manage a directory
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This cdist type allows you to create or remove directories on the target.
REQUIRED PARAMETERS
-------------------
None.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
state
'present' or 'absent', defaults to 'present'
group
Group to chgrp to.
mode
Unix permissions, suitable for chmod.
owner
User to chown to.
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
parents
Whether to create parents as well (mkdir -p behaviour).
Warning: all intermediate directory permissions default
to whatever mkdir -p does.
Usually this means root:root, 0700.
recursive
If supplied the chgrp and chown call will run recursively.
This does *not* influence the behaviour of chmod.
MESSAGES
--------
chgrp <group>
Changed group membership
chown <owner>
Changed owner
chmod <mode>
Changed mode
create
Empty directory was created
remove
Directory exists, but state is absent, directory will be removed by generated code.
remove non directory
Something other than a directory with the same name exists and was removed prior to create.
EXAMPLES
--------
.. code-block:: sh
# A silly example
__directory /tmp/foobar
# Remove a directory
__directory /tmp/foobar --state absent
# Ensure /etc exists correctly
__directory /etc --owner root --group root --mode 0755
# Create nfs service directory, including parents
__directory /home/services/nfs --parents
# Change permissions recursively
__directory /home/services --recursive --owner root --group root
# Setup a temp directory
__directory /local --mode 1777
# Take it all
__directory /home/services/kvm --recursive --parents \
--owner root --group root --mode 0755 --state present
