Hi, I want to write a type/provider for Sun Grid Engine/Open Grid Scheduler/etc. configuration.
The configuration is (for the most part) managed by a pair of commands, for example "qconf -sc" will show ("s") the "complex" configuration, "qconf -mc" will invoke an editor to modify ("m") it, and for some components "qconf -Mc $file" can be called to replace the current configuration with $file. The configuration looks somewhat like: | #name shortcut type relop requestable consumable default urgency | #---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | arch a RESTRING == YES NO NONE 0 | calendar c RESTRING == YES NO NONE 0 | cpu cpu DOUBLE >= YES NO 0 0 | [...] This is strikingly similar to crontab where "crontab -l" shows the configuration and "crontab" changes it, so I looked at type/cron.rb and provider/cron/crontab.rb for in- spiration, but the code is rather complex due to the subject matter :-). I searched the forge for Puppet::Provider::ParsedFile, but the only match was https://forge.puppetlabs.com/adrien/filemapper which explic- itly recommends against using the former and advertises it- self as a (better) alternative. Is there a (simpler) example than crontab of how to use Puppet::Provider::ParsedFile with a program as backend?
