MUNINDOC(1p)

🌸 MUNINDOC πŸ’…

okay so bestie, this is munindoc, a page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation manual. yes that's a whole mouthful, it's giving very "official docs" energy but honestly it's just here to help you out 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

munindoc β€” Munin documentation, babes. that's it, that's the name πŸ“–


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so this program? it displays Munin documentation, especially plugin documentation. super useful, we love her πŸ’…

⚠️ heads up though: not all plugins are documented yet. so if you go looking for something and it's just not there… yeah. that's a thing. not your fault bestie 😭

also important: most Munin commands (like munin-run, and honestly munindoc itself too) are only documented through the usual Unix man command. so that's where you go looking, no cap ✨


πŸŽ€ PLUGIN DOCUMENTATION πŸŽ€

okay so if you're writing plugin docs, here's the vibe check on what they should include:

  • basic usage information 🌸
  • anything you'd ever want to know about configuration
  • how to interpret the output (because reading raw output with no context is giving chaos πŸ’€)

additional info that's typically found in there is usually:

  • the name of the plugin author
  • licensing
  • and the "magic markers" which controls plugin auto configuration (that whole thing is done by munin-node-configure πŸ”₯)

and hey, if you wanna document a plugin yourself? iconic. take a look at http://munin-monitoring.org/wiki/munindoc for the details on how to do it πŸ‘‘

…but all the work is handed off to the perldoc command once we have located the Munin documentation files. so like, credit where it's due, but also the heavy lifting is outsourced, and honestly? respect πŸ™ˆ
