Available states
----------------
.. contents::
:local:
``syslog_ng``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Installs and configures the syslog_ng package.
``syslog_ng.package``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Installs the syslog_ng package and optional packages which may provide additional functionalities.
``syslog_ng.config``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This state manages the file ``syslog_ng.conf`` under ``/etc/syslog-ng`` (template found in "syslog_ng/files"). The configuration is populated by values in "syslog_ng/map.jinja" based on the package's default values (and RedHat, Debian, Suse and Arch family distribution specific values), which can then be overridden by values of the same name in pillar.
``syslog_ng.service``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Manages the startup and running state of the syslog_ng service.
Testing
-------
Linux testing is done with ``kitchen-salt``.
Requirements
^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Ruby
* Docker
.. code-block:: bash
$ gem install bundler
$ bundle install
$ bin/kitchen test [platform]
Where ``[platform]`` is the platform name defined in ``kitchen.yml``,
e.g. ``debian-9-2019-2-py3``.
``bin/kitchen converge``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Creates the docker instance and runs the ``syslog_ng`` main state, ready for testing.
``bin/kitchen verify``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Runs the ``inspec`` tests on the actual instance.
``bin/kitchen destroy``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Removes the docker instance.
``bin/kitchen test``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Runs all of the stages above in one go: i.e. ``destroy`` + ``converge`` + ``verify`` + ``destroy``.
``bin/kitchen login``
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Gives you SSH access to the instance for manual testing.
