salt.renderers.py

Pure python state renderer

The SLS file should contain a function called run which returns high state data.

In this module, a few objects are defined for you, giving access to Salt's execution functions, grains, pillar, etc. They are:

  • __salt__ - Execution functions (i.e. __salt__['test.echo']('foo'))
  • __grains__ - Grains (i.e. __grains__['os'])
  • __pillar__ - Pillar data (i.e. __pillar__['foo'])
  • __opts__ - Minion configuration options
  • __env__ - The effective salt fileserver environment (i.e. base). Also referred to as a "saltenv". __env__ should not be modified in a pure python SLS file. To use a different environment, the environment should be set when executing the state. This can be done in a couple different ways:
    • Using the saltenv argument on the salt CLI (i.e. salt '*' state.sls foo.bar.baz saltenv=env_name).
    • By adding a saltenv argument to an individual state within the SLS file. In other words, adding a line like this to the state's data structure: {'saltenv': 'env_name'}
  • __sls__ - The SLS path of the file. For example, if the root of the base environment is /srv/salt, and the SLS file is /srv/salt/foo/bar/baz.sls, then __sls__ in that file will be foo.bar.baz.
