"""Charm Helpers saltstack - declare the state of your machines. This helper enables you to declare your machine state, rather than program it procedurally (and have to test each change to your procedures). Your install hook can be as simple as:: {{{ from charmhelpers.contrib.saltstack import ( install_salt_support, update_machine_state, ) def install(): install_salt_support() update_machine_state('machine_states/dependencies.yaml') update_machine_state('machine_states/installed.yaml') }}} and won't need to change (nor will its tests) when you change the machine state. It's using a python package called salt-minion which allows various formats for specifying resources, such as:: {{{ /srv/{{ basedir }}: file.directory: - group: ubunet - user: ubunet - require: - user: ubunet - recurse: - user - group ubunet: group.present: - gid: 1500 user.present: - uid: 1500 - gid: 1500 - createhome: False - require: - group: ubunet }}} The docs for all the different state definitions are at: http://docs.saltstack.com/ref/states/all/ TODO: * Add test helpers which will ensure that machine state definitions are functionally (but not necessarily logically) correct (ie. getting salt to parse all state defs. * Add a link to a public bootstrap charm example / blogpost. * Find a way to obviate the need to use the grains['charm_dir'] syntax in templates.
