💖 CDIST-TYPE__USER_GROUPS 💖

okay bestie, welcome to cdist-type__user_groups from the cdist manual pages (section 7, if you're keeping score) ✨ this one is a whole lil' bop and it's genuinely so useful, let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

cdist-type__user_groups — manage user groups 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So basically? This type adds or removes a user from one or more groups. That's it. That's the whole vibe. No cap. 💅

🎀 REQUIRED PARAMETERS 🎀

  • group — the group to which this user should be added or removed. And listen, you can specify it multiple times — stack 'em up, she's flexible like that 🦋

💜 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS 💜

  • user — the name of the user. Defaults to object_id (iykyk, that's just how cdist rolls).
  • state — absent or present. Defaults to present. Present = she's in the group, absent = she's out, no hard feelings 💖

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

okay here's the tea, watch this:

__user_groups nginx --group webuser1 --group webuser2
# remove user nginx from groups webuser2
__user_groups nginx-webuser2 --user nginx \
   --group webuser2 --state absent

see how the second one's got that --state absent going on? that's the remove-her-from-the-group energy. and the --user nginx bit is there because the object_id is nginx-webuser2 but the actual user we're messing with is nginx. literally so clean ✨
