cdist-type__uci_section(7)
==========================
NAME
----
cdist-type__uci_section - Manage configuration sections in UCI
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This cdist type can be used to replace whole configuration sections in OpenWrt's
Unified Configuration Interface (UCI) system.
It can be thought of as syntactic sugar for :strong:`cdist-type__uci`\ (7),
as this type will generate the required `__uci` objects to make the section
contain exactly the options specified using ``--option``.
Since many default UCI sections are unnamed, this type allows to find the
matching section by one of its options using the ``--match`` parameter.
**NOTE:** Options already present on the target and not listed in ``--option``
or ``--list`` will be deleted.
REQUIRED PARAMETERS
-------------------
None.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
list
An option that is part of a list and should be present in the section (as
part of a list). Lists with multiple options can be expressed by using the
same ``<option>`` repeatedly.
The value to this parameter is a ``<option>=<value>`` string.
``<value>`` does not need special quoting for UCI.
The only requirement is that the value is passed to the type as a single
shell argument.
match
Allows to find a section to "replace" through one of its parameters.
The value to this parameter is a ``<option>=<value>`` string.
option
An option that should be present in the section.
This parameter can be used multiple times to specify multiple options.
The value to this parameter is a ``<option>=<value>`` string.
``<value>`` does not need special quoting for UCI.
The only requirement is that the value is passed to the type as a single
shell argument.
state
``present`` or ``absent``, defaults to ``present``.
type
The type of the section in the format: ``<config>.<section-type>``
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
None.
