UNASSIGNED TODOS
----------------
The following list of todos has not been assigned to any developer.
Feel free to pick one!
CORE
----
- Inconsistent error messages if object is not existing!
-> always use "Object undefined"
- Add echo function / beautify output
__cdist_echo [level] [messages...]
level := syslog alike:
debug, notice, err
Include object_self prefixing, if given!
- Think about moving cdist-type-build-emulation out of cdist-manifest-run to
cdist-deploy-to: more dependency of cdist-manifest-run, but a lot of
less cycles consumed
- cdist-object-gencode: remove code if output empty?
- also take care of that in cdist-code-run!
- Remove cdist-object-push, covers only one line and is used only once:
[20:22] kr:bin% grep cdist-object-push *
cdist-object-run: cdist-object-push "$__cdist_target_host" "$__cdist_object"
[20:22] kr:bin%
- probably remove or improve cdist-type-template
- add $__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
- check all all internal variables are prefixed with __cdist
- Define / document "this is what should be on host X"
and have it parsable by different (shinken) tool
-> given after manifest run already!
- Allow types to have parameters without values (boolean flags).
e.g. __chair fancychair --pink --wood
would result in:
$__object/parameter/
pink # empty file
wood # empty file
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!
- compare running times:
one, 5, 10, 50, 100, 1000 hosts => how does cdist scale?
