CarlCM (not a serious name)
Configuration Management for people who like programming
A VERY early work-in-progress experiment with homemade configuration management; basically, I'd like to take the functionality of something like Puppet or Chef (solo), and make it more like a library than a framework. Right now things only work on Ubuntu and are probably super buggy and there are a lot of useful methods missing. Because this is simply Python code, more complicated things are possible, and easy things are still easy (to misparaphrase Larry Wall).
Installing:
pip install carlcm
Running simple idempotent operations is like this:
import carlcm
c = carlcm.ConfigurationManager()
c.file('/home/exampleuser/example.txt', data='Hello World!')Method calls in generally return True if they changed something, and
False if not. I might change this in the future.
