whytewolf / salt-debug Goto Github PK

@whytewolf I am maintaining most of the new 'salt-winrepo-ng' repo and ever since this added the ability to use and mix/in jinja2 templatized code, I find myself wondering, if it is correct and will it render, etc, when I write new 'salt-winrepo-ng' sls files. And more than once I managed to submit broken sls files that had syntax errors or were missing parts, and if I had tried rendering them before submitting them, I could have avoided those. (see saltstack/salt#28899 )

To that end I tried writing a simple python loop to rneder the jinja2 in the sls file. ( see saltstack/salt#28898 )

But I didn't get very far. But now I have seen this simple 'salt-debug' module of yours. Do you think if it used/added the 'tpldir' functionality (see saltstack/salt#28898 (comment) ) I could have it look at (or render) local files that aren't yet somewhere under the "file_roots://" on the master? (also see saltstack/salt#29063 (comment) )

Hoping that you can give helpful input on some of these?

I'm using saltenv and pillarenv different from base for my development servers, so every time I'd have to specify saltenv manually, which is rather tedious.

My servers have saltenv in the minion config which means that their default saltenv will be present in __opts__. I don't know if there are other ways to configure default saltenv for a minion.

So the code could look like this:

def render(..., saltenv=None, ...):
   """
   docstring
   """
   if saltenv is None:
      saltenv = __opts__.get('saltenv', 'base')
   ...

That would work for me. But again, I'm not sure if that's a 100% reliable way to obtain the default saltenv for a minion.

Hi Thomas.

sorry this is not an issue. but i don't found another way to leave a message for you.
I'm searching for one of your git project : https://github.com/whytewolf/salt-rsp-formula that is no more existing on github.

I'm new saltstack user and want to use it for applying security patchs on and infrastructure containing windows and redhat servers

could you please re share this project so i can take it as example ?

PS: if needed you can email me : [email protected]

Thanks and regards
