Ordering States
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
When creating salt sls files, it is often important to ensure that they run in
|
|
a specific order. While states will always execute in the same order, that
|
|
order is not nessisarily defined the way you want it.
|
|
|
|
A few tools exist in Salt to set up the corect state ordering, these tools
|
|
consist of requisite declarations and order options.
|
|
|
|
The Order Option
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
Before using the order option, remember that the majority of state ordering
|
|
should be done with requisite statements, and that a requisite statement
|
|
will override an order option.
|
|
|
|
The order option is used by adding an order number to a state declaration
|
|
with the option `order`:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
vim:
|
|
pkg:
|
|
- installed
|
|
- order: 1
|
|
|
|
By adding the order option to `1` this ensures that the vim package will be
|
|
installed in tandem with any other state declaration set to the order `1`.
|
|
|
|
Any state declared without an order option will be executed after all states
|
|
with order options are executed.
|
|
|
|
But this construct can only handle ordering states from the beggining.
|
|
Sometimes you may want to send a state to the end of the line, to do this
|
|
set the order to last:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
vim:
|
|
pkg:
|
|
- installed
|
|
- order: last
