Description-en: Lisp declarative configuration management system
Consfigurator is a system for declarative configuration management using
Common Lisp. You can use it to configure hosts as root, deploy services as
unprivileged users, build and deploy containers, and produce disc images.
.
Consfigurator's design gives you a great deal of flexibility about how to
control the hosts you want to configure. If there is a command you can run
which will obtain input and output streams attached to an interactive POSIX
sh running on the target host/container, then with a little glue code, you
can use much of Consfigurator's functionality to configure that
host/container. But if it is possible to get an implementation of Common
Lisp started up on the host, then Configurator can transparently execute your
deployment code over on the remote side, rather than exchanging information
via POSIX sh. This lets you use the full power of Common Lisp to deploy your
configuration.
.
Configurator has convenient abstractions for combining these different ways
to execute your configuration on hosts with different ways of connecting to
them. Connections can be arbitrarily nested.
.
Declarative configuration management systems like Consfigurator and Propellor
share a number of goals with projects like the GNU Guix System and NixOS.
However, tools like Consfigurator and Propellor try to layer the power of
declarative and reproducible configuration on top of traditional,
battle-tested unix system administration infrastructure like apt, dpkg, yum,
and distro package archives, rather than seeking to replace any of those.
Let's get as much as we can out of all that existing distro policy-compliant
work!
