|

Cdist searches for the initial manifest at **conf/manifest/init** and
|
||||
executes it as a shell script using **/bin/sh -e**.
|
||||
|
||||
Within this initial manifest, you define, which objects should be
|
||||
created on which host. To distinguish between hosts, you can use the
|
||||
environment variable **__target_host**. Let's have a look at a simple
|
||||
example:
|
||||
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
__file /etc/cdist-configured
|
||||
|
||||
case "$__target_host" in
|
||||
localhost)
|
||||
__directory /home/services/kvm-vm --parents yes
|
||||
;;
|
||||
esac
|
||||
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This manifest says: Independent of the host, always create the (empty) file
|
||||
***/etc/cdist-configured***, but create the directory ***/home/services/kvm-vm***,
|
||||
including all parent directories, only on the host ***localhost***.
|
||||
|
||||
As you can see, there is no magic involved, the manifest is simple shell code that
|
||||
utilises cdist types.

MORE ABOUT TYPES AND OBJECTS
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
All available types in cdist can be called like normal executables.
