Dynamic Module Distribution
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 0.9.5
|
|
|
|
Salt python modules can be distributed automatically via the salt file server.
|
|
Under the root of any environment defined via the file_roots option on the
|
|
master server directories corresponding to the type of module can be used.
|
|
|
|
The directories are prepended with an underscore:
|
|
|
|
1. _modules
|
|
2. _grains
|
|
3. _renderers
|
|
4. _returners
|
|
5. _states
|
|
|
|
The contents of these directories need to be synced over to the minions after
|
|
python modules have been created in them. There are a number of ways to sync
|
|
the modules.
|
|
|
|
Sync Via States
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
The minion configuration contains an option ``autoload_dynamic_modules``
|
|
which defaults to True. This option makes the state system refresh all
|
|
dynamic modules when states are run. To disable this behavior set
|
|
``autoload_dynamic_modules`` to False in the minion config.
|
|
|
|
Sync Via the saltutil Module
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
The saltutil module has a number of functions that can be used to sync all
|
|
or specific dynamic modules. The saltutil module function ``saltutil.sync_all``
|
|
will sync all module types over to a minion. For more information see:
|
|
:mod:`salt.modules.saltutil`
