INSTALLATION

Install idem-solaris directly from pip:

pip install idem-solaris

DEVELOPMENT INSTALLATION

Clone the idem_solaris repo and install with pip:

git clone https://gitlab.com/saltstack/pop/idem-solaris.git idem_solaris
pip install -e idem_solaris

EXECUTION

After installation the grains command should now be available

TESTING

install requirements-test.txt with pip and run pytest:

pip install -r idem_solaris/requirements-test.txt
pytest idem_solaris/tests

VERTICAL APP-MERGING

Instructions for extending pop-solaris into an OS-specific pop project

Install pop:

pip install --upgrade pop

Create a new directory for the project:

mkdir pop_{specific_solaris}
cd pop_{specific_solaris_os}

Use pop-seed to generate the structure of a project that extends grains and idem:

pop-seed -t v pop_{specific_solaris_os} -d grains exec states

• “-t v” specifies that this is a vertically app-merged project

• “-d grains exec states” says that we want to implement the dynamic names of “grains”, “exec”, and “states”

Add “idem_solaris” to the requirements.txt:

echo "idem_solaris @ git+https://gitlab.com/saltstack/pop/idem_solaris.git" >> requirements.txt

And that’s it! Go to town making grains, execution modules, and state modules specific to your specific solaris-based platform. Follow the conventions you see in idem_solaris.
