= Ruby bindings for augeas
The class Augeas provides bindings to augeas [http://augeas.net] library.
== Usage: Setting Data
Augeas::open do |aug|
aug.set("/files/etc/sysconfig/firstboot/RUN_FIRSTBOOT", "YES")
unless aug.save
raise IOError, "Failed to save changes"
end
end
== Usage: Accessing Data
firstboot = Augeas::open { |aug| aug.get("/files/etc/sysconfig/firstboot/RUN_FIRSTBOOT") }
== Usage: Removing Data
Augeas::open do |aug|
aug.rm("/files/etc/sysconfig/firstboot/RUN_FIRSTBOOT")
unless aug.save
raise IOError, "Failed to save changes"
end
end
== Usage: Minimal Setup with a Custom Root
By passing +NO_MODL_AUTOLOAD+, no files are read on startup; that allows
setting up a custom transform.
Augeas::open("/var/tmp/augeas-root", "/usr/local/share/mylenses",
Augeas::NO_MODL_AUTOLOAD) do |aug|
aug.transform(:lens => "Aliases.lns", :incl => "/etc/aliases")
aug.load
aug.get("/files/etc/aliases/*[name = 'postmaster']/value")
end
