YUM

Source: yum.cf

This bundle will configure the:

• yum.conf -> scl_yum_conf class will set
• repo files in /etc/yum.repos.d

These will be generated with the aid of the mustache templates with json data. The templates/json files are located in:

• templates/yum/
• templates/yum/json
• templates/yum_repository/
• templates/yum_repository/json

USAGE

The bundle can be run via:

• def.scl_services_enabled

"vars": {
    "scl_services_enabled": [
            "...",
            "yum",
            "..."
    ]
}

The bundle will always read the default.json file and extra json file(s) can be specified via:

• def.cf

vars:
    any::
        "yum_repository_json_files" slist => { "surfsara.json" };

The variable must be yum_json_files and with this setup 1 extra json file will be merged.

DEBUG

If you want to debug these bundle set the DEBUG_yum class, eg:

• -DDEBUG_yum

def.cf/json

See what the default values are and which variables can be overriden

• yum default.json
• yum repository default.json

With yum you can specify 2 different type of lists for external json data:

1. yum_json_files --> yum.conf
2. yum_repository_json_files --> yum repo files

Here are some examples how to use it.

add an extra repo:

• def.cf

any::
    "yum_repository_files" slist => { "epel.json" };

• def.json

"vars": {
    "yum_repository_files": [ "epel.json" ],
}

override yum conf setting:

• def.cf

vars:
    "yum" data => parsejson( '{ "assumeyes":  "0"  }' );

• def.json

"vars": {
    "yum": {
        "assumeyes":  "0"
    }
}
