UNASSIGNED TODOS
----------------
The following list of todos has not been assigned to any developer.
Feel free to pick one!
CORE
----
- Add subcommand to create template of a type with working manpage
(cdist type-template or so)
TESTS
-----
- multiple defines of object:
- fail if different parameters
- succeed if same parameters
USER INTERFACE
--------------
- add support $__tmp?
- for use in manifest, code, etc.?
- for creating temporary files, etc.
- How to cleanly implement "restart service if config file changed"
- Cache
- add example how to use
- export variable $__cache
-> for current host
-> add function to cdist-config, import from cdist-cache
- Define / document "this is what should be on host X"
and have it parsable by different (shinken) tool
-> given after manifest run already!
- use absent/present for state by default?
- buggy output with packages that don't exist in archlinux and fedora:
python3 vs. python
TYPES
------
- __ssh-keys (host/user)
- __file_edit
- regexp replace (can probably cover all?)
-> aka sed.
- __cron
- __user
add option to include --create-home
DOCUMENTATION
--------------
- asciidoc interprets __, which we use for variables
names -> seek through docs and replace with \_\_!
- reference explorers in cdist-reference!
