This builds in some functionality for growing the filesystem for new machines. It also gets wrapped with an mcl module for ease of use.
Modules!
This is a collection of mcl modules that may be of general interest.
Why?
In particular while the project is evolving very rapidly, it makes sense to keep these alongside the compiler so that if anything needs refactoring, it happens together in the same commit, and if there are improvements made and new features added, you can see exactly what commit brought in this change!
Acceptance criteria
It's sort of arbitrary at the moment, but I'm putting in what I find to be generally helpful for my needs. Patches are welcome, but expect I might be a bit discerning if it's not what I'm looking for right now.
Long-term
I see mgmt and mcl as being able to replace a traditional software
management daemon, and front-end configuration interface for many projects. As a
result, it might end up being the de facto way to interact with certain
services. For example, the dhcpd project could decide to provide an mcl module
as either the primary or secondary interface for managing that service, and in
that case, it would make sense for that module to live in that source tree.
Importing?
You can import any of these modules into your mcl project with the following
example for the purpleidea module:
import "git://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/modules/purpleidea/"
