NAME

----
 | 
						|
cdist-messaging - How the initial manifest and types can communication
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
DESCRIPTION
 | 
						|
-----------
 | 
						|
cdist has a simple but powerful way of allowing communication between
 | 
						|
the initial manifest and types as well as types and types.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Whenever execution is passed from cdist to one of the
 | 
						|
scripts described below, cdist generate 2 new temporary files
 | 
						|
and exports the environment variables __messages_in and
 | 
						|
__messages_out to point to them. 
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Before handing over the control, the content of the global message 
 | 
						|
file is copied into the file referenced by $__messages_in.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
After cdist gained control back, the content of the file referenced
 | 
						|
by $__messages_out is appended to the global message file.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This way overwriting any of the two files by accident does not 
 | 
						|
interfere with other types.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The order of execution is not defined unless you create dependencies 
 | 
						|
between the different objects (see cdist-manifest(7)) and thus you
 | 
						|
can only react reliably on messages by objects that you depend on.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
AVAILABILITY
 | 
						|
------------
 | 
						|
Messaging is possible between all **local** scripts:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
- initial manifest
 | 
						|
- type/manifest
 | 
						|
- type/gencode-local
 | 
						|
- type/gencode-remote
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
EXAMPLES
 | 
						|
--------
 | 
						|
When you want to emit a message use:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
echo "something" >> "$__messages_out"
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
When you want to react on a message use:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
if grep -q "^__your_type/object/id:something" "$__messages_in"; then
 | 
						|
    echo "I do something else"
 | 
						|
fi
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Some real life examples:
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
# Reacting on changes from block for keepalive
 | 
						|
if grep -q "^__block/keepalive-vrrp" "$__messages_in"; then
 | 
						|
    echo /etc/init.d/keepalived restart
 | 
						|
fi
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
# Reacting on changes of configuration files
 | 
						|
if grep -q "^__file/etc/one" $__messages_in; then
 | 
						|
    echo 'for init in /etc/init.d/opennebula*; do $init restart; done'
 | 
						|
fi
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Restart sshd on changes
 | 
						|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | 
						|
os="$(cat "$__global/explorer/os")"
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
case "$os" in
 | 
						|
    centos|redhat|suse)
 | 
						|
        restart="/etc/init.d/sshd restart"
 | 
						|
    ;;
 | 
						|
    debian|ubuntu)
 | 
						|
        restart="/etc/init.d/ssh restart"
 | 
						|
    ;;
 | 
						|
    *)
 | 
						|
        cat << eof >&2
 | 
						|
Unsupported os $os.
 | 
						|
If you would like to have this type running on $os,
 | 
						|
you can either develop the changes and send a pull
 | 
						|
request or ask for a quote at www.ungleich.ch
 | 
						|
eof
 | 
						|
        exit 1
 | 
						|
    ;;
 | 
						|
esac
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
if grep -q "^__key_value/PermitRootLogin" "$__messages_in"; then
 | 
						|
    echo $restart
 | 
						|
fi
 | 
						|
