✨ NAME ✨

cdist-type__pacman_conf — manage pacman configuration 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This type lets you configure the options section, add or delete repositories, and manage mirrorlists. That's it, that's the whole vibe. lowkey iconic, highkey useful 💅

👑 REQUIRED PARAMETERS 👑

These are not optional, bestie. You need them. No skipping. 🙈

  • section — pass 'options' if you wanna configure the options section.

Otherwise, it specifies a repository or a plain file.

  • key — specifies the key which will be set.

If section = 'options' or the file isn't set, the key will be checked against the available keys from pacman.conf. (vibe check for keys, fr fr ⭐)

  • value — specifies the value which will be set against the key. this is the one that actually gets written, so get it right 💖

🎀 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS 🎀

Extra knobs, use them if you want, no pressure 🫶

  • state — 'present' or 'absent', defaults to 'present'.
  • file — specifies the filename.

The managed file will be named like 'plain_file_filename'.

If supplied, the key will not be checked. (yep, the training wheels come off 🔥)
