CFEngine 3 is a popular open source configuration management system. Its primary function is to provide automated configuration and maintenance of large-scale computer systems.
CFEngine is comprised of several source code repositories. As you might be looking for another part of the open source code base, here is a list to ease navigation:
(Each repo also contains some supporting code/files, such as tests, scripts, documentation, etc.).
Pre-built installers are available from our website:
To install from source please see the INSTALL file for prerequisites and build instructions.
As per the LICENSE file, CFEngine Community is licensed under the GNU General Public License, version 3.
All the files in this repository are licensed under GNU GPL version 3, unless stated otherwise in the copyright notice inside the particular file.
In order to use the built cf-agent in the source tree you must add a $HOME/.cfagent/bin/cf-promises
file:
$ pwd <something>/core $ echo "cd $(pwd); cf-promises/cf-promises \"\$@\"" > ~/.cfagent/bin/cf-promises
The following code demonstrates simple CFEngine output through a reports promise.
bundle agent main
{
reports:
"Hello, world";
}
The following policy code may be executed with cf-agent (the main CFEngine binary) as follows.
$ cf-agent/cf-agent ./hello.cf R: Hello, world
As this project uses autotools you must use libtool to run gdb/lldb/debuggers:
./libtool --mode=execute <gdb|lldb|yourdebugger> ./cf-agent/cf-agent
Please see the CONTRIBUTING.md file.
Relationship to CFEngine 2CFEngine 3 is not a drop-in upgrade for CFEngine 2 installations. It is a significantly more powerful version, but it is incompatible with the CFEngine 2 policy language.
The server part of CFEngine 3 supports the network protocol of CFEngine 2, so you may upgrade your installation gradually.
CFEngine was originally created by Mark Burgess with many contributions from around the world. Thanks everyone!
