| # Configure formula pillar namespace | |||
| pillar: | |||
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This pillar:namespace parameter and use seems to be something new accross all community formulas, but it may be a solution to a problem @myii @sticky-note are discussing.
This is already done mostly everywhere and covers few remaining locations.
Allow to rename the meta-state without having to change substates references. This might be useful one wants to use this formula with a (renamed) fork within the same environment.
This might be useful if one wants to use this formula with a (renamed)
fork within the same environment.
Note this also permits to override pillar namespace by defining
'{meta-state name}:pillar:namespace: str'.

Describe the changes you're proposing
This pull-request makes (hopefully) better use of
jinja.mapand allows to seamlessly rename meta-state. While not useful per se for the official repository, renaming permits easier reusability when forking the formula (ex. you want to use both original and forked formulas in your environment).Pillar / config required to test the proposed changes
No specific pillar is required. If my changes are correct, you should not see any visible changes when applying your state.
If interested, you could test meta-state renaming (ex.
mv nginx-formula/{nginx,mynginx}). Considering no other changes have been made, you should be able to usemynginxmeta-state as drop-in replacement fornginx. Also note that pillar namespace defaults to the meta-state name (i.e.mynginxin that example).Optionnaly, you can customize the formula pillar namespace by setting
{meta-state-name}:pillar:namespacepillar (ex.mynginx:pillar:namespace: mynginx2).Debug log showing how the proposed changes work
None for now.
