Rudder agent support utility repository.
This repository contains a CLI for rudder. Here is how it works :
rudder help
rudder agent help
rudder agent <command>
rudder server help
rudder server <command> # if you have server support
This cli is made to be expandable, which means that you can add new commands at will.
To add a new command, just drop it into /opt/rudder/share/command and/or make
a new pull request to add it to share/command in this repository.
A command must have the following properties :
-
be called agent- or server-
-
parameters will not include the 'agent', 'server' or given in the command line
-
the executable must contain a string with a single line of the form:
-
the executable may also contain a single or multi-line string of the form:
New commands should follow these guidelines :
- have as few dependencies as possible on the agent side
- if -h is an option, it must provide help
- if -v is an option, it must make the command verbose
- if -d is an option, it must be debug
In order to build the man pages, you will need:
- asciidoctor for the man output:
gem install asciidoctor
Then run make in the man folder. It will generate rudder.8.
