About Spacewalk

DESCRIPTION

Spacewalk is a pure-Ruby implementation of the Spacewalk client protocol stack.

COMMANDS

The bin subdir contains a couple of commands to simulate a client talking to the Spacewalk server.

Command options

All commands have the following options in common

  • --server <spacewalk-url> to specify the full url of the spacewalk server
    • Example: --server http://spacewalk.opensuse.org

Registration

The register_remote fakes a registration of a client system and stores the system_id as a file with the system name.

Synopsis

register_remote <options> <client-system-name>

Possible <options>:

  • --server <spacewalk-url> - required, specifies the spacewalk server
  • --key <activation-key> - requires, specifies the activation key
  • --packages - optional, upload locally installed packages
  • --description <text> - optional, a text line to identify the system
  • --arch <arch> - optional, to simulate different architectures

Registration example

ruby register_remote.rb --server https://spacewalk.opensuse.org --key 1-default --packages --description "Fake registration" --arch x86_64 my.system.com

Actions

The actions command pulls pending actions from the server and outputs matching CFEngine promises. Actions are then marked as 'successful'.

If --future <hours> is given, actions are not marked and will stay pending in the server.

Synopsis

actions <options> <client-system-name>

Possible <options>:

  • --server <spacewalk-url> - required, specifies the spacewalk server
  • --future <hours> - optional, returns future actions

Actions example

ruby actions.rb --server https://spacewalk.opensuse.org --future 1 my.system.com

Action results

submit is a helper tool to submit action results back to the server. This can be used for actions marked as 'in progress', waiting for the client to submit a final result.

Synopsis

submit <options> <client-system-name>

Possible <options>:

  • --server <spacewalk-url> - required, specifies the spacewalk server
  • --action <action_id> - required, the id of the action
  • --message <text> - optional, text information about the result
  • --result <exit-code> - optional, exit code of a command

Action results examples

ruby submit.rb --server https://spacewalk.opensuse.org --action 6434 --message "Leider kaputt" --result "0" my.system.com
