The flexjoin() macro simplifies support for mergable and composable
structures. All three of these data structures will result in the string
'a s d f'. The third structure, using dicts, also supports pillar merging.
- 'a s d f'
- [ a, s, d, f]
- { a: ~, s: ~, d: ~, f: ~}
Certain configuration items, such as server andserveractive, are comma-delimited lists. The ordering is unimportant, so we can use flexjoin() to join our input data. We can then compose our input data from merged pillars.
The flexcall() macro permits whole-line merged configuration items by
calling a macro for each key in a dict, or by calling a macro for each
item in a list.
These two inputs are equivalent:
- {a: ~, b: ~, c: ~}
- [a, b, c]
Example usage:
{% call(element) flexcall( mydata ) -%}
Here is an element from input: {{ element }}
{% endcall -%}
Example output:
Here is an element from input: a
Here is an element from input: b
Here is an element from input: c
Support pillar merging of UserParameters via flexcall
Use flexcall to support pillar merging for LoadModule and UserParameter lines.

Bah. I bungled the commit message for 86da726. That one adds LoadParameter support. |
Verify it's actually a list, so NoneTypes etc can't worm their way in.

Rather than complicating the state, pillar merging can also be handled master side. Since UserParameters are already specified as a list, you can just enable the If you would like more control over the pillar overrides or merges, you can use somehting like pillarstack |

For #60.
Support for pillar merging for Server, ServerActive, UserParameter and LoadModule.
Existing pillar data should be unaffected by implementation.
