NAME

6       Rex::Commands::PkgConf - Configure packages
7

DESCRIPTION

9       With this module you can configure packages. Currently it only supports
10       Debian (using debconf), but it is designed to be extendable.
11

SYNOPSIS

13        my %options = get_pkgconf('postfix');
14        say $options{'postfix/relayhost'}->{value};
15
16        # Only obtain one value
17        my %options = get_pkgconf('postfix', 'postfix/relayhost');
18        say $options{'postfix/relayhost'}->{value};
19
20        # Set options
21        set_pkgconf("postfix", [
22           {question => 'chattr', type => 'boolean', value => 'false'},
23           {question => 'relayhost', type => 'string', value => 'relay.example.com'},
24        ]);
25
26        # Don't update if it's already set
27        set_pkgconf("mysql-server-5.5", [
28           {question => 'mysql-server/root_password', type => 'string', value => 'mysecret'},
29           {question => 'mysql-server/root_password_again', type => 'string', value => 'mysecret'},
30        ], no_update => 1);
31

EXPORTED FUNCTIONS

33   get_pkgconf($package, [$question])
34       Use this to query existing package configurations.
35
36       Without a question specified, it will return all options for the
37       specified package as a hash.
38
39       With a question specified, it will return only that option
40
41       Each question is returned with the question as the key, and the value
42       as a hashref. The hashref contains the keys: question, value and
43       already_set. already_set is true if the question has already been
44       answered.
45
46        # Only obtain one value
47        my %options = get_pkgconf('postfix', 'postfix/relayhost');
48        say $options{'postfix/relayhost'}->{question};
49        say $options{'postfix/relayhost'}->{value};
50        say $options{'postfix/relayhost'}->{already_set};
51
52   set_pkgconf($package, $values, [%options])
53       Use this to set package configurations.
54
55       At least the package name and values must be specified. Values must be
56       an array ref, with each item containing a hashref with the attributes
57       specified that are required by the package configuration program.
58
59       For example, for debconf, this must be the question, the type and
60       answer. In this case, the types can be any accetable debconf type:
61       string, boolean, select, multiselect, note, text, password.
62
63       Optionally the option "no_update" may be true, in which case the
64       question will not be updated if it has already been set.
65
66       See the synopsis for examples.
