bcfg2-lint.conf
===============
Description
-----------
bcfg2-lint.conf includes configuration parameters for bcfg2-lint.
File format
-----------
The file is INI-style and consists of sections and options. A section
begins with the name of the sections in square brackets and continues
until the next section begins.
Options are specified in the form "name=value".
The file is line-based each newline-terminated line represents either a
comment, a section name or an option.
Any line beginning with a hash (#) is ignored, as are lines containing
only whitespace.
The file consists of one *[lint]* section, up to one *[errors]* section,
and then any number of plugin-specific sections, documented below. (Note
that this makes it quite feasible to combine your *bcfg2-lint.conf* into
your :manpage:`bcfg2.conf(5)` file, if you so desire).
Global options
--------------
These options apply to *bcfg2-lint* generally, and must be in the
*[lint]* section.
plugins
A comma-delimited list of plugins to run. By default, all plugins
are run. This can be overridden by listing plugins on the command
line. See :manpage:`bcfg2-lint(8)` for a list of the available
plugins.
Error handling
--------------
Error handling is configured in the *[errors]* section. Each option
should be the name of an error and one of *error*, *warning*, or
*silent*, which tells :program:`bcfg2-lint` how to handle the
warning. Error names and their defaults can be displayed by running
:program:`bcfg2-lint` with the *--list-errors* option.
Plugin options
--------------
These options apply only to a single plugin. Each option should be in a
section named for its plugin; for instance, options for the InfoXML
plugin would be in a section called *[InfoXML]*.
If a plugin is not listed below, then it has no configuration.
In many cases, the behavior of a plugin can be configured by modifying
how errors from it are handled. See ERROR HANDLING, above.
Comments
++++++++
The *Comments* plugin configuration specifies which VCS keywords and
comments are required for which file types. The valid types of file are
*global* (all file types), *bundler* (non-templated bundle files),
*genshibundler* (templated bundle files), *properties* (property files),
*cfg* (non-templated Cfg files), *genshi* or *cheetah* (templated Cfg
files), *infoxml* (info.xml files), and *probe* (probe files).
The specific types (i.e., types other than "global") all supplement
global; they do not override it. The exception is if you specify an
empty option, e.g.:
cfg_keywords =
By default, the *$Id$* keyword is checked for and nothing else.
Multiple keywords or comments should be comma-delimited.
* *<type>_keywords*
Ensure that files of the specified type have the given VCS keyword. Do
*not* include the dollar signs. I.e.:
infoxml_keywords = Revision
*not*
infoxml_keywords = $Revision$
* *<type>_comments*
Ensure that files of the specified type have a comment containing the
given string. In XML files, only comments are checked. In plain text
files, all lines are checked since comment characters may vary.
InfoXML
+++++++
required_attrs
A comma-delimited list of attributes to require on *<Info>* tags.
Default is "owner,group,mode".
MergeFiles
++++++++++
threshold
The threshold at which MergeFiles will suggest merging config files
and probes. Default is 75% similar.
Validate
++++++++
schema
The full path to the XML Schema files. Default is
``/usr/share/bcfg2/schema``. This can be overridden with the
*--schema* command-line option.
