.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
The salt\-call command is used to run module functions locally on a minion
instead of executing them from the master. Salt\-call is used to run a
Standalone Minion, and was originally
created for troubleshooting\&.
.sp
The Salt Master is contacted to retrieve state files and other resources
during execution unless the \fB\-\-local\fP option is specified.
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
\fBsalt\-call\fP commands execute from the current user\(aqs shell
context, while \fBsalt\fP commands execute from the system\(aqs default context.

.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-l LOG_LEVEL, \-\-log\-level=LOG_LEVEL
Console logging log level. One of \fBall\fP, \fBgarbage\fP, \fBtrace\fP,
\fBdebug\fP, \fBinfo\fP, \fBwarning\fP, \fBerror\fP, \fBquiet\fP\&. Default:
\fBwarning\fP\&.

.UNINDENT
.SS Output Options
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-out
Pass in an alternative outputter to display the return of data. This
outputter can be any of the available outputters:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
\fBgrains\fP, \fBhighstate\fP, \fBjson\fP, \fBkey\fP, \fBoverstatestage\fP, \fBpprint\fP, \fBraw\fP, \fBtxt\fP, \fByaml\fP
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Some outputters are formatted only for data returned from specific
functions; for instance, the \fBgrains\fP outputter will not work for non\-grains
data.
.sp
If an outputter is used that does not support the data passed into it, then
Salt will fall back on the \fBpprint\fP outputter and display the return data
using the Python \fBpprint\fP standard library module.
.sp
\fBNOTE:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
If using \fB\-\-out=json\fP, you will probably want \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
Without the static option, you will get a separate JSON string per minion
which makes JSON output invalid as a whole.
This is due to using an iterative outputter. So if you want to feed it
to a JSON parser, use \fB\-\-static\fP as well.
