=head1 NAME
config-edit - Deprecated, use L<cme>
=head1 SYNOPSIS
config-edit [options] ( -application popcon | -model Popcon ) [ ... ] [ commands ... ]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
C<config-edit> program will use Config::Model configuration
descriptions to validate or modify the configuration file of an application.
You can specify commands as arguments that will be run on the
configuration root before launching the UI. These command follow the
syntax defined in L<Config::Model::Loader>.
C<config-edit> can be run in several modes depending on your needs.
=head2 Graphical interface
config-edit -application popcon
Provides a user interface so user can easily and
securely modify the configuration of their system.
=head2 Curses interface
config-edit -ui curses -application popcon
Provides a curses user interface
=head2 Shell like interface
config-edit -ui shell -application popcon
Provides a shell like interface
=head2 upgrade mode
config-edit -ui none -application popcon -save
Loads configuration date, perform validation and migration of old data
(if specified by the model) and save the new configuration file.
=head2 Direct modification of configuration data
config-edit -ui none -application popcon PARTICIPATE=yes
Loads old configuration data, update C<PARTICIPATE> data, checks the modification
and save the configuration back. Option C<-save> is not needed as the data was modified
by the command line.
=head2 Generation of configuration documentation
config-edit -model Popcon -gen-pod [ output_dir ]
Generate pod documentation on STDOUT or write them in the specified directory. Note that
one pod file will be created per class.
To get man pages or text docuement, you can pipe the output of the command:
config-edit -model Popcon -doc | pod2man > popcon-conf.3
=head1 Options
=over
=item application
Application name to be configured. Specify C<help> to get a list of available
applications.
=item file
Configuration file name. Used only for models without standard configuration
file name. (e.g. multistrap)
=item -model
Specifies the model used to edit configuration data. Specify C<help> to
get a list of available applications. This option is ignored when C<-
application> is specified
=item -ui
Specify the user interface type.
=over
=item *
C<tk>: provides a Tk graphical interface (If L<Config::Model::TkUI> is
installed).
=item *
C<curses>: provides a curses user interface (If
L<Config::Model::CursesUI> is installed).
=item *
C<shell>: provides a shell like interface. See L<Config::Model::TermUI>
for details.
=item *
C<fuse>: provides an interface through a FUSE virtual file system. You must give a directory where
the virtual file system will be mounted with option C<-fuse_dir>.
To stop (and write the configuration data back to the configuration file),
run C<< fusermount -u <mounted_fuse_dir> >>. (This is experimental. Mount point
specification may change in the future)
=item *
C<none>: No UI provided. Only command line arguments are handled.
=back
=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 -instance-name
Specify an instance name. By default the instance name is copied from
model name.
=begin comment
Could be useful for a backup config data feature. To be implemented
=end comment
=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 -config-file
Specify the configuration file to edit (which may override the file specified by the model).
Note that some applicaitions (like multistrap)
will require this option. For other models (like Debian::Dpkg), this option may not make sense
as several files are used.
=item -verbose
Be (very) verbose
=item -debug
Provide debug infos.
=item -trace
Provides a full stack trace when exiting on error.
=item -force-load
Load file even if error are found in data. Bad data are discarded
=item -apply-fixes
Apply fixes mentioned in model description.
For details, see C<warn_if_match> or C<warn_unless_match>
in L<Config::Model::Value/>. Configuration files will be saved if
invoked with C<-ui none> .
=item -backend
Specify a read/write backend. The actual backend name depends on the model
passed to C<-model> option. See L<Config::Model::AutoRead> for details.
=item -dump [ file ]
Dump configuration content on STDOUT or in the specified with
Config::Model syntax.
By default, dump only custom values, i.e. different from application
built-in values or model default values. See -dumptype option for
other types of dump
=item -dumptype [ full | preset | custom ]
Choose to dump every values (full), only preset values or only
customized values (default)
=item -load <cds_file_to_load>
Load configuration data in model from cds file (using Config::Model
serialisation format, typically done with -dump option). When this
option is used, the usual configuration files will not be read.
If used with C<-ui none>, this option will load configuration data,
validate it and save it in configuration file (if no error was found).
=item -save
Force re-writing the configuration. (useful for configuration upgrade)
=item -open-item 'path'
In graphical mode, force the UI to open the node specified. E.g.
-open-item 'foo bar'
=item -fuse-dir
Directory where the FUSE virtual file system will be mounted (with C<-ui fuse>)
=back
=head1 Search
You can search the configuration with the following options
=over
=item -search
Specifies a string or pattern to search. C<config-edit> will a list of path pointing
to the matching tree element and their value.
See L<Config::Model::AnyThing/grab(...)> for details
on the path syntax.
=item -narrow-search
Narrows down the search to:
=over
=item element
=item value
=item key
=item summary
Summary text
=item description
description text
=item help
value help text

=head1 Saving configuration data
Configuration data are saved only when :
=over
=item *
Requested through the user interface
=item *
When commands are specified with arguments
=item *
When C<-load> option is used
=item *
When C<-save> option is used
=back
You can run safely C<config-edit -ui none> to test a configuration,
configuration files will not be modified in this case.
=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
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 Backend
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg::Control
=item Backend::Debian::Dpkg::Copyright
=item Backend::Fstab
=item Backend::IniFile

=item Tree::Element::Value::Dependency
=item Tree::Node
=item Tree::Node::Warped
=item ValueComputer
=item Warper
=item Wizard::Helper
=item Model
=back
More categories will come.
