FIXME: This example needs to be retested with new Properties plugin.
As submitted by dclark
This file just shows you what’s available. It assumes a /var/lib/bcfg2/Properties/test.xml file with an entry like this:
#!text/xml
<Properties>
<password>
<bcfg2>fakeBCFG2password</bcfg2>
</password>
</Properties>
Hostname is ${metadata.hostname}
Groups:
{% for group in metadata.groups %}\
${group} \
{% end %}\
{% if metadata.categories %}\
Categories:
{% for category in metadata.categories %}\
${category} \
{% end %}\
{% end %}\
{% if metadata.Probes %}\
Probes:
{% for probe, value in metadata.Probes.iteritems() %}\
$probe $value
{% end %}\
{% end %}\
Two main ways to get the same property value:
${metadata.Properties['test.xml'].xdata.find('password').find('bcfg2').text}
${metadata.Properties['test.xml'].xdata.xpath('password/bcfg2')[0].text}
One way to get information about metadata and properties:
dir(metadata):
{% for var in dir(metadata) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
dir(metadata.Properties.xdata):
{% for var in dir(metadata.Properties.xdata) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.entries):
{% for var in dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.entries) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.label):
{% for var in dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.label) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.name):
{% for var in dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.name) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.properties):
{% for var in dir(metadata.Properties.xdata.properties) %}\
${var} \
{% end %}
When the above file is saved as /var/lib/bcfg2/TGenshi/test/template.newtxt and generated with bcfg2-info buildfile /test test.hostname.org, the results look like this (below reformatted a little bit to fit in 80 columns):
