NAME

6       cdist-type__uci - Manage configuration values in UCI

DESCRIPTION

10       Unified Configuration Interface (UCI) system.
11

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

13       value  The value to be set. Can be used multiple times.  This parameter
14              is ignored if --state is absent.
15
16              Due  to the way cdist handles arguments, values must not contain
17              newline characters.
18
19              Values do not need special quoting for UCI. The only requirement
20              is  that the value is passed to the type as a single shell argu‐
21              ment.
22

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

27              or list.  Defaults to auto-detect based on the number of --value
28              parameters.
