User Contributed Perl Documentation ✨ the munindoc era


🌸 NAME 🌸

munindoc β€” Munin documentation, bestie. that's the whole vibe πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so. this program displays Munin documentation, especially plugin documentation. it's giving "help me understand my own setup" energy and honestly? iconic.

heads up though: not all plugins are documented yet. so if you go looking and come back empty-handed, that's not you, that's just how it is rn 😭

most Munin commands (such as munin-run, and munindoc itself) are only documented through the usual Unix man command. no cap. that's just where the docs live.


✨ PLUGIN DOCUMENTATION ✨

so when a plugin does get documented, here's what it should include:

  • basic usage information
  • anything you want to know about configuration
  • how to interpret the output

and the extra stuff you'll typically find in there? get ready:

  • the name of the plugin author
  • licensing
  • "magic markers" which controls plugin auto configuration (done by munin-node-configure)

if you want to document a plugin, you can take a look at http://munin-monitoring.org/wiki/munindoc for details on how to do it. go off πŸ’…

(C) 2008-2009 Nicolai Langfeldt, Redpill Linpro AS. ...But all the work is handed off to the perldoc command once we have located the Munin documentation files.

like, yes, credit where credit is due, but also β€” the actual heavy lifting gets handed off to perldoc once the Munin documentation files have been located. munindoc is lowkey just the finder, perldoc is the main character 🌟
