.Dt CONFIG.LUA 8
|
||||
.Os
|
||||
.Sh NAME
|
||||
.Nm config.lua
|
||||
.Nd FreeBSD config module
|
||||
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.Nm
|
||||
contains configuration and module loading functionality.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Before hooking into or using the functionality provided by
|
||||
.Nm ,
|
||||
it must be included with a statement such as the following:
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
.Dl local config = require("config")
|
||||
.Ss Exported functions
|
||||
The following functions are exported from
|
||||
.Nm :
|
||||
.Bl -tag -width "config.setCarouselIndex(id, idx)" -offset indent
|
||||
.It Fn config.getCarouselIndex id
|
||||
Returns the currently chosen index in the carousel menu entry described by
|
||||
.Ev id .
|
||||
See the definition of
|
||||
.Xr menu.lua 8
|
||||
for a more in-depth explanation of carousels.
|
||||
.It Fn config.setCarouselIndex id idx
|
||||
Set the chosen index for the carousel menu entry described by
|
||||
.Ev id
|
||||
to
|
||||
.Ev idx .
|
||||
A lookup will be done as needed to determine what value
|
||||
.Ev idx
|
||||
actually corresponds to.
|
||||
.It Fn config.processFile name silent
|
||||
Process and parse
|
||||
.Ev name
|
||||
as a configuration file.
|
||||
Returns true if
|
||||
.Ev name
|
||||
exists and parses without error, false otherwise.
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Ev silent
|
||||
is true,
|
||||
.Fn config.processFile
|
||||
will not consider a failure to read the file as a failure.
|
||||
.It Fn config.parse text
|
||||
Parse
|
||||
.Ev text
|
||||
as a configuration file.
|
||||
This is used internally by
|
||||
.Fn config.processFile
|
||||
to parse the contents of a configuration file.
|
||||
Returns true if parsing succeeds without error, false if an error occurred.
|
||||
A message is also printed to the console if an error is encountered.
|
||||
.It Fn config.loadKernel other_kernel
|
||||
Attempts to load
|
||||
.Ev other_kernel
|
||||
as a kernel.
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Ev other_kernel
|
||||
is unset
|
||||
.Fn config.loadKernel
|
||||
will attempt to load
|
||||
.Dq kernel .
|
||||
Otherwise, it will try to load
|
||||
.Dq kernel
|
||||
first from
|
||||
.Pa /boot/{other_kernel} ,
|
||||
then from
|
||||
.Pa {other_kernel} .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
The latter is tried in case an absolute path has been specified to the kernel
|
||||
to use.
|
||||
.Ev module_path
|
||||
is amended to include the directory the kernel was found in if either of these
|
||||
paths result in a loaded kernel.
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
If no kernel was loaded from either of these paths,
|
||||
.Fn config.loadKernel
|
||||
will attempt to load a kernel named
|
||||
.Dq {other_kernel}
|
||||
from
|
||||
.Ev module_path
|
||||
instead of attempting to load a kernel named
|
||||
.Dq kernel .
|
||||
.Pp
|
||||
Returns true if a kernel was loaded, false if no kernel was loaded.
|
||||
.It Fn config.selectKernel kernel
|
||||
Set
|
||||
.Ev kernel
|
||||
to the kernel that will be loaded when either
|
||||
.Ic autoboot
|
||||
or
|
||||
.Ic boot
|
||||
are invoked.
|
||||
This is usually called by the menu system as the kernel selector carousel is
|
||||
toggled through.
|
||||
.It Fn config.load file reload
|
||||
Loads
|
||||
.Ev file
|
||||
as a configuration file.
|
||||
If
|
||||
.Ev file
|
||||
is not specified,
|
||||
.Pa /boot/defaults/loader.conf
|
||||
is used.
|
||||
.Fn config.load
|
||||
will then silently attempt to process any files specified in
|
||||
.Ev loader_conf_files
|
||||
after
|
||||
.Ev file
|
||||
has been processed.
|
||||
.Xr nextboot 8
|
||||
configuration will also be checked as part of
|
||||
.Fn config.load .
|
||||
Before returning, all
|
||||
.Dq config.loaded
|
||||
hooks will be run if
|
||||
.Ev reload
|
||||
is not set to true.
|
||||
.It Fn config.reload file
|
||||
Reloads
|
||||
.Ev file
|
||||
as a configuration file.
|
||||
.Fn config.reload
|
||||
will restore the environment to how it existed before the last config was
|
||||
loaded, then it will invoke
|
||||
.Fn config.load file .
|
||||
Before returning, all
|
||||
.Dq config.reloaded
|
||||
hooks will be run.
|
||||
.It Fn config.loadelf
|
||||
Loads all ELF objects, the selected kernel as well as any modules configured to
|
||||
be preloaded in
|
||||
.Xr loader.conf 5 .
|
||||
This will be called by the Lua intercepted
|
||||
.Ic autoboot
|
||||
and
|
||||
.Ic boot
|
||||
commands.
|
||||
.El
|
||||
.Ss Defined Hooks
|
||||

|
||||

||||
.Bl -tag -width "config.reloaded" -offset indent
