Cfg Handler Development

The Cfg plugin offers multiple handlers to handle different entries in different ways. Writing a new Cfg handler is a relatively simple way to add significant new features to Cfg.

Each new Cfg handler must be contained in its own module in Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg, and the module and class name must be identical. The name should start with Cfg, and should clearly indicate which of the handler types it is. A handler class may implement more than one handler type.

Cfg Handler Types

There are several different types of Cfg handlers. A new handler must inherit either from one of these classes, or from an existing handler.

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator(name, specific, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher

CfgGenerators generate the initial content of a file. Every valid Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgEntrySet must have at least one file handled by a CfgGenerator. Moreover, each CfgEntrySet must have one unambiguously best handler for each client. See Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.EntrySet for more details on how the best handler is chosen.

Parameters:
get_data(entry, metadata)[source]

get_data() returns the initial data of a file.

Parameters:
Returns:

string - the contents of the entry

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreator(fname)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher

CfgCreator handlers create static entry data if no generator was found to generate any. A CfgCreator runs at most once per client, writes its data to disk as a static file, and is not called on subsequent runs by the same client.

Parameters:name (string) – The full path to the file
__specific__ = False

CfgCreators generally store their configuration in a single XML file, and are thus not specific

create_data(entry, metadata)[source]

Create new data for the given entry and write it to disk using Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreator.write_data().

Parameters:
Returns:

string - The contents of the entry

Raises :

Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreationError

experimental = True

The CfgCreator interface is experimental at this time

get_filename(host=None, group=None, prio=0, ext='')[source]

Get the filename where the new data will be written. If host is given, it will be host-specific. It will be group-specific if group and prio are given. If neither host nor group is given, the filename will be non-specific.

Parameters:
  • host (bool) – The file applies to the given host
  • group (string) – The file applies to the given group
  • prio (string) – The file has the given priority relative to other objects that also apply to the same group. group must also be specified.
  • ext – An extension to add after the specificity (e.g., ‘.crypt’, to signal that an encrypted file has been created)
Returns:

string - the filename

write_data(data, host=None, group=None, prio=0, ext='')[source]

Write the new data to disk. If host is given, it is written as a host-specific file, or as a group-specific file if group and prio are given. If neither host nor group is given, it will be written as a non-specific file.

Parameters:
  • data (string) – The data to write
  • host (bool) – The data applies to the given host
  • group (string) – The data applies to the given group
  • prio (string) – The data has the given priority relative to other objects that also apply to the same group. group must also be specified.
  • ext – An extension to add after the specificity (e.g., ‘.crypt’, to signal that an encrypted file has been created)
Returns:

None

Raises :

Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreationError

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgFilter(name, specific, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher

CfgFilters modify the initial content of a file after it has been generated by a Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator.

Parameters:
modify_data(entry, metadata, data)[source]

Return new data for the entry, based on the initial data produced by the Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator.

Parameters:
  • entry (lxml.etree._Element) – The entry to filter data for. entry should not be modified in-place.
  • metadata (Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Metadata.ClientMetadata) – The client metadata to filter data for.
  • data (string) – The initial contents of the entry produced by the CfgGenerator
Returns:

string - the new contents of the entry

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgInfo(fname)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher

CfgInfo handlers provide metadata (owner, group, paranoid, etc.) for a file entry.

Parameters:name (string) – The full path to the file
__specific__ = False

Whether or not the files handled by this handler are permitted to have specificity indicators in their filenames – e.g., .H_client.example.com or .G10_foogroup. By default CfgInfo handlers do not allow specificities

_set_info(entry, info)[source]

Helper function to assign a dict of info attributes to an entry object. entry is modified in-place.

Parameters:
  • entry (lxml.etree._Element) – The abstract entry to bind the info to
  • info (dict) – A dict of attribute: value pairs
Returns:

None

bind_info_to_entry(entry, metadata)[source]

Assign the appropriate attributes to the entry, modifying it in place.

Parameters:
Returns:

None

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgVerifier(name, specific, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher

CfgVerifier handlers validate entry data once it has been generated, filtered, and info applied. Validation can be enabled or disabled in the configuration. Validation can apply to the contents of an entry, the attributes on it (e.g., owner, group, etc.), or both.

Parameters:
verify_entry(entry, metadata, data)[source]

Perform entry contents. validation.

Parameters:
  • entry (lxml.etree._Element) – The entry to validate data for. entry should not be modified in-place. Info attributes have been bound to the entry, but the text data has not been set.
  • metadata (Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Metadata.ClientMetadata) – The client metadata to validate data for.
  • data (string) – The contents of the entry
Returns:

None

Raises :

Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgVerificationError

Cfg Handler Base Class

In addition to the interfaces defined above, all Cfg handlers inherit from CfgBaseFileMatcher.

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgBaseFileMatcher(name, specific, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.SpecificData, Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.base.Debuggable

CfgBaseFileMatcher is the parent class for all Cfg handler objects.

param name:The full path to the file
type name:string
param specific:A Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.Specificity object describing what clients this file applies to.
type specific:Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.Specificity
param encoding:The encoding to use for data in this file
type encoding:string
__basenames__ = []

The set of filenames handled by this handler. If __basenames__ is the empty list, then the basename of each CfgEntrySet is used – i.e., the name of the directory that contains the file is used for the basename.

__extensions__ = []

This handler only handles files with the listed extensions (which come after CfgBaseFileMatcher.__specific__ indicators).

__ignore__ = []

This handler ignores all files with the listed extensions. A file that is ignored by a handler will not be handled by any other handlers; that is, a file is ignored if any handler ignores it. Ignoring a file is not simply a means to defer handling of that file to another handler.

__specific__ = True

Whether or not the files handled by this handler are permitted to have specificity indicators in their filenames – e.g., .H_client.example.com or .G10_foogroup.

__priority__ = 0

Cfg handlers are checked in ascending order of priority to see if they handle a given event. If this explicit priority is not set, then CfgPlaintextGenerator.CfgPlaintextGenerator would match against nearly every other sort of generator file if it comes first. It’s not necessary to set __priority__ on handlers where CfgBaseFileMatcher.__specific__ is False, since they don’t have a potentially open-ended regex

deprecated = False

Flag to indicate a deprecated handler.

experimental = False

Flag to indicate an experimental handler.

classmethod get_regex(basenames)[source]

Get a compiled regular expression to match filenames (not full paths) that this handler handles.

Parameters:basename (string) – The base filename to use if CfgBaseFileMatcher.__basenames__ is not defined (i.e., the name of the directory that contains the files the regex will be applied to)
Returns:compiled regex
classmethod handles(event, basename=None)[source]

Return True if this handler handles the file described by event. This is faster than just applying CfgBaseFileMatcher.get_regex() because it tries to do non-regex matching first.

Parameters:
Returns:

bool - True if this handler handles the file listed in the event, False otherwise.

classmethod ignore(event, basename=None)[source]

Return True if this handler ignores the file described by event. See CfgBaseFileMatcher.__ignore__ for more information on how ignoring files works.

Parameters:
Returns:

bool - True if this handler handles the file listed in the event, False otherwise.

Cfg Exceptions

Cfg handlers may produce the following exceptions:

exception Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgVerificationError[source]

Bases: exceptions.Exception

Raised by Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgVerifier.verify_entry() when an entry fails verification

exception Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreationError[source]

Bases: exceptions.Exception

Raised by Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCreator.create_data() when data creation fails

In addition, Cfg handlers may produce the following base plugin exceptions:

exception Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.exceptions.PluginExecutionError[source]

Bases: exceptions.Exception

Error raised in case of Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.base.Plugin execution errors.

exception Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.exceptions.PluginInitError[source]

Bases: exceptions.Exception

Error raised in cases of Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.base.Plugin initialization errors.

Global Variables

Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.SETUP = None

SETUP contains a reference to the Bcfg2.Options.OptionParser created by the Bcfg2 core for parsing command-line and config file options. Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.Cfg stores it in a module global so that the handler objects can access it, because there is no other facility for passing a setup object from a Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.GroupSpool to its Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.EntrySet objects and thence to the EntrySet children.

Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CFG = None

CFG is a reference to the Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.Cfg plugin object created by the Bcfg2 core. This is provided so that the handler objects can access it as necessary, since the existing Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.GroupSpool and Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.EntrySet classes have no facility for passing it otherwise.

Existing Cfg Handlers

Generators

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgPlaintextGenerator.CfgPlaintextGenerator(name, specific, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator

CfgPlaintextGenerator is a Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator that handles plain text (i.e., non-templated) Cfg files. The base Generator class already implements this functionality, so CfgPlaintextGenerator doesn’t need to do anything itself.

Parameters:
class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenshiGenerator.CfgGenshiGenerator(fname, spec, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator

The CfgGenshiGenerator allows you to use the Genshi templating system to generate Cfg files.

Parameters:
get_data(entry, metadata)[source]

get_data() returns the initial data of a file.

Parameters:
Returns:

string - the contents of the entry

handle_event(event)[source]

Handle a FAM event. Note that the SpecificData object itself has no FAM, so this must be produced by a parent object (e.g., Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.helpers.EntrySet).

Parameters:event (Bcfg2.Server.FileMonitor.Event) – The event that applies to this file
Returns:None
Raises :Bcfg2.Server.Plugin.exceptions.PluginExecutionError
pyerror_re = <_sre.SRE_Pattern object at 0x5e01a80>

Error-handling in Genshi is pretty obtuse. This regex is used to extract the first line of the code block that raised an exception in a Genshi template so we can provide a decent error message that actually tells the end user where an error occurred.

class Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgCheetahGenerator.CfgCheetahGenerator(fname, spec, encoding)[source]

Bases: Bcfg2.Server.Plugins.Cfg.CfgGenerator
