Compound matches, such as nodegroups, can now be specified as lists. This avoids splitting on whitespace which may be part of a key or value. Right now this only works for nodegroups. Making the argument to "-C" (compound list) a JSON argument is a future task.

Node groups

|

|
Nodegroups are declared using a compound target specification. The compound
|
|
target documentation can be found :doc:`here <compound>`.
|
|
|
|
The :conf_master:`nodegroups` master config file parameter is used to define
|
|
nodegroups. Here's an example nodegroup configuration within
|
|
``/etc/salt/master``:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
nodegroups:
|
|
group1: 'L@foo.domain.com,bar.domain.com,baz.domain.com or bl*.domain.com'
|
|
group2: 'G@os:Debian and foo.domain.com'
|
|
group3: 'G@os:Debian and N@group1'
|
|
group4:
|
|
- 'G@foo:bar'
|
|
- 'or'
|
|
- 'G@foo:baz'
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The ``L`` within group1 is matching a list of minions, while the ``G`` in
|
|
group2 is matching specific grains. See the :doc:`compound matchers
|
|
<compound>` documentation for more details.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: Beryllium
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Nodgroups can reference other nodegroups as seen in ``group3``. Ensure
|
|
that you do not have circular references. Circular references will be
|
|
detected and cause partial expansion with a logged error message.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: Beryllium
|
|
|
|
Compound nodegroups can be either string values or lists of string values.
|
|
When the nodegroup is A string value will be tokenized by splitting on
|
|
whitespace. This may be a problem if whitespace is necessary as part of a
|
|
pattern. When a nodegroup is a list of strings then tokenization will
|
|
happen for each list element as a whole.
|
|
|
|
To match a nodegroup on the CLI, use the ``-N`` command-line option:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
salt -N group1 test.ping
|
|
|
|
To match a nodegroup in your :term:`top file`, make sure to put ``- match:
|
|
nodegroup`` on the line directly following the nodegroup name.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
base:
|
|
group1:
|
|
- match: nodegroup
|
|
- webserver
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
When adding or modifying nodegroups to a master configuration file, the master must be restarted
|
|
for those changes to be fully recognized.
|
|
|
|
A limited amount of functionality, such as targeting with -N from the command-line may be
|
|
available without a restart.
