Support 389-ds in supportutils about supportutils HOT 7 CLOSED

Thank you for the suggestion. Supportconfig supports plugins. Basically supportconfig exports $LOG for the location of the supportconfig directory being created. Supportconfig runs /usr/lib/supportconfig/plugins during execution. The plugins then gather information and can store the output in $LOG. So are you considering writing a 389-ds plugin or were you thinking of something else?

A 389-ds plugin would be great. Is it possible to write the plugin in something other than bash given how these are executed? We have an extensive python library for 389-ds that would be great to consume here to help give really detailed diagnostics.

You can write the plugin in any language you want. The stdout and stderr will be captured by supportconfig, or you can use the export $LOG environment variable to save files in a directory. The former is preferred.

Are there any docs of what the stdout/stderr should look like? Or is it what I choose? As well, how do I nominate that my plugin is run?

from supportutils.

I'm working on the documentation now. There was only some old, irrelevant docs that need serious updating. I'll keep you posted.

I'll update issue #68 with progress.
