DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
Cdist explorer are small shell scripts, which will be executed
|
|
|
|
|
on the target host. The aim of the explorer is to give hints
|
|
|
|
|
to types on how to act on the target system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Explorer are located below $config_dir/explorer. Their name
|
|
|
|
|
must be usable as a environment variable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The shell script must output the result of its investigation
|
|
|
|
|
to stdout. The output may be empty.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case of significant errors, the shell script may exit
|
|
|
|
|
non-zero and return an error message on stderr, which
|
|
|
|
|
will cause the cdist run to abort.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Explorers can reuse other explorers on the target system
|
|
|
|
|
by calling $__cdist_explorer_path/<explorer_name>.
