# edit /etc/sshd_config (with Config::Model::OpenSsh)
sudo cme edit sshd
# edit ~/.ssh/config (with Config::Model::OpenSsh)
cme edit ssh
# just check the validity of a file. Both commands are equivalent
cme check multistrap file.conf

=head1 DESCRIPTION
Depending on the command described below, C<cme> program will use
Config::Model configuration descriptions to check or modify or fix
configuration files.
The 3rd parameter specify the application you want to work on. Most of
the time, the relevant configuration file(s) will be found by cme. This
is the most simple case. For instance:
sudo cme check popcon
Some application like C<multistrap> have no constraint on the
configuration file name and will require you to specify your
configuration file name:
cme check multistrap raspbian.conf
or
cme check multistrap -file raspbian.conf
=head1 Configuration file specification
The configuration of an application can take different forms. Either
several files (like debian packages), a single file with a predefined
file (popcon), or a single file with an arbitrary file name
(multistrap).
When needed the configuration file name is specified as the 3rd command
argument, i.e. C<cme command application file_name>. This applies if the
application requires a configuration file name (like multistrap), or if
the application allows configuration file override.
When the overridden file is C<-> (a single dash), the configuration is
read from STDIN. The resulting file may be written on STDOUT. I.e.
cat debian/confrol | cme migrate dpkg-control -save -file -
will output a fixed control file on STDOUT.
=head1 Main commands
This section describes the main commands shipped with cme. Other
Config::Model extensions can bring more command. Run C<cme help> to
get the list of available commands on your system.
=head2 list
Show a list all applications where a model is available. This list depends on
installed Config::Model modules.
=head2 edit
Edit a configuration. By default, a Tk GUI will be opened If L<Config::Model::TkUI> is
installed. See L<App::Cme::Command::edit>.
=head2 shell
Edit the configuration with a shell like interface. See L<App::Cme::Command::shell>.
=head2 check
Checks the content of the configuration file of an application. See L<App::Cme::Command::check>.
=head2 migrate
Update deprecated parameters (old value are saved to new parameters)
and save the new configuration. See L<App::Cme::Command::migrate>.
=head2 fix
Migrate data and fix warnings. See L<App::Cme::Command::fix>.
=head2 modify
Modify a configuration file with the values passed on the command
line. See L<App::Cme::Command::modify>.
=head2 update
Update the content of the configuration file from external data.
Currently, only dpkg-copyright model support update sub command.
See L<App::Cme::Command::update>.
=head2 search
Search configuration data for a specific string. See L<App::Cme::Command::search>.
=head2 fusefs
Map the configuration file content to a FUSE virtual file system on a
directory specified with option C<-fuse-dir>. Modifications done in
the fuse file system are saved to the configuration file when the
C<fusermount -u> is run.
=head1 Global options
The following options are available for all commands:
=over
=item -create
Perform the operation even if the configuration file is missing. This
may be used to create a minimal configuration file. This option is
disabled by default as a missing configuration file often indicates an
error during the installation of the application.
=item -file
For model that support it, specify an alternate file to read and write the
configuration. Use "C<->" to read from STDIN.
You can use this option for model that require the target file to be
specified (e.g. multitrap model), but file can in this case be also
specified with the 4th command argument. E.g. these 2 commands habe
the same effect:
cme check multistrap foo.conf
cme check multistrap -file foo.conf
=item -force-load
Load file even if error are found in data. Bad data are discarded
=item -backup
Create a backup of configuration files before saving. By default, C<old> will
be appended to the backup file. I.e. C<foo.conf> will be backed up as C<foo.conf.old>.
You can specify an alternate suffix. For instance C<-backup dpkg-old>.
=item -save
Force a save even if no change was done. Useful to reformat the configuration file.
=item -strict
When set, cme will exit 1 if warnings are found during check (of left after fix)
=back
=head1 Advanced options
=over
=item -dev
Use this option if you want to test a model under development. This
option will add C<lib> in C<@INC> and use C<lib/Config/Model/models>
as model directory. This option is ignored when run as root.
=item -model-dir
Specify an alternate directory to find model files. Mostly useful for
tests.
=item -root-dir
Specify a pseudo root directory to read and write the configuration
files. (Actual default directory and file names depends on the model
(See C<-model> option). For instance, if you specify C<~/mytest>, the
C</etc/ssh/sshd_config> files will be written in C<~/mytest/etc/ssh/>
directory.
=item -stack-trace
Provides a full stack trace when exiting on error.
=item -backend
Specify a read/write backend. The actual backend name depends on the model
passed to C<-model> option. See L<Config::Model::BackendMgr> for details.
=item -try-app-as-model
When set, try to load a model using directly the application name specified as 3rd parameter
on the command line. Experimental.
=back
=head1 Embedding cme
You can use cme from another program by using C<-ui simple>
option. This way you will be able to send command on the standard input
of C<cme> and get the results from the standard output.
=head1 Logging
All Config::Model logging is now based on L<Log::Log4perl>.
Logging can be configured in the following files:
=over
=item *
~/.log4config-model
=item *
/etc/log4config-model.conf
=back
A sample of a C<.log4config-model> is provided in contrib directory in C<Config::Model>
distribution of on L<github|https://github.com/dod38fr/config-model/blob/master/contrib/log4config-model>
Without these files, the following Log4perl config is used:
log4perl.logger=WARN, Screen
log4perl.appender.Screen = Log::Log4perl::Appender::Screen
log4perl.appender.Screen.stderr = 0
log4perl.appender.Screen.layout = Log::Log4perl::Layout::PatternLayout
log4perl.appender.Screen.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %m %n
Log4perl uses the following categories:
=over
=item Anything
=item Anything::Change
Trace change notification through configuration tree and instance.
=item Backend
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg::Control
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg::Copyright
=item Backend::Fstab
=item Backend::IniFile
=item Backend::PlainFile
=item Backend::ShellVar
=item Backend::Yaml
=item FuseUI
=item Instance
=item Loader
=item Model::Searcher
=item Tree::Element::CheckList
=item Tree::Element::Id
=item Tree::Element::Id::Hash
=item Tree::Element::Id::List
=item Tree::Element::Value
=item Tree::Element::Value::Dependency
=item Tree::Node
=item Tree::Node::Warped
=item ValueComputer
=item Warper
=item Iterator
=item Model
=back
More categories will come.
=head1 EXIT CODE
cme exits 0 when no errors are found. Exit 1 otherwise.
=head1 BUGS
=head2 Configuration models can lag behind the target application
If a configuration model is not up-to-date, you will get errors complaining about
unknown parameters. In such a case, please file a bug on
L<request tracked|http://rt.cpan.org/> or fix the model and send a pull request.
You can see this
L<example from OpenSsh|https://github.com/dod38fr/config-model/wiki/New-parameter-for-openssh-example>
to learn how to fix a model.
