backend.common.rhnConfig.RHNOptions

Class RHNOptions

Main options class The basic idea is to share the important pieces of information - the component and the configuration tree - across all instances of this class.

Instance Methods

[hide private]

__init__(self, component=None, root=None, filename=None)

source code

init(self, component, root=None, filename=None)
Visible function, so that we can re-init the object without losing the reference to it

source code

setComponent(self, comp)

source code

getComponent(self)

source code

is_initialized(self)

source code

modifiedYN(self)
returns last modified time diff if rhn.conf has changed.

source code

updateLastModified(self, timeDiff=None)
update the last modified time of the rhn.conf file.

source code

parse(self)
This function parses the config file, if needed, and populates the configuration cache self.__configs

source code

_parseDefaults(self, allCompsYN=0)
Parsing of the /usr/share/rhn/config-defaults/*.conf (or equivalent) Make sure we have all the needed default config files loaded We store the defaults in a dictionary, keyed on the component tuple

source code

keys(self)

source code

has_key(self, key)

source code

values(self)

source code

items(self)

source code

set(self, key, value)

source code

__setitem__(self, key, value)

source code

show(self)

source code

__getattr__(self, key)
fetch option you want in a self.DEBUG kind of syntax (can force component selection)

source code

__getitem__(self, key)
fetch option you want in a self.DEBUG kind of syntax (can force component selection)

source code

get(self, key, default=None)

source code

__str__(self)

source code

__repr__(self)

source code

__check(self)

source code

__merge(self, component=None)
merge the config options between the default comp dictionaries and the file we're parsing now

source code

getDefaults(self)
returns the __defaults dict (dictionary of parsed defaults).

source code

_getParsedConfig(self)
returns the __parsedConfig dict (dictionary of parsed /etc/rhn/rhn.conf file).

source code

_getConfigs(self)
returns the __configs dict (dictionary of the merged options keyed by component.

source code

showall(self)

source code

getattr(self, key)
(Qualification operator)

source code

fetch option you want in a self.DEBUG kind of syntax
   (can force component selection)

e.g.: say for example we have an option proxy.debug = 5
      stored in the dictionary. proxy just says that only proxy
      can access this option. So for this exmple,
      self.__component is proxy.
       cfg = RHNOptions("proxy")
       print cfg.DEBUG ---> yields 5

getitem(self, key)
(Indexing operator)
