Augeas is a library and command line tool that focuses on the most basic
|
||
|
|
problem in handling Linux configurations programmatically: editing actual
|
||
|
|
configuration files in a controlled manner.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To that end, Augeas exposes a tree of all configuration settings (well,
|
||
|
|
all the ones it knows about) and a simple local API for manipulating the
|
||
|
|
tree. Augeas then modifies underlying configuration files according to
|
||
|
|
the changes that have been made to the tree; it does as little modeling
|
||
|
|
of configurations as possible, and focuses exclusivley on transforming
|
||
|
|
the tree-oriented syntax of its public API to the myriad syntaxes of
|
||
|
|
individual configuration files.
