Shell-Var-Reader
Lets say '/usr/local/etc/someconfig.conf' which is basically a shell config and read via include in a sh or bash script, this can be used for getting a hash ref conttaining them.
Similarly on systems like FreeBSD, this is also useful for reading '/etc/rc.conf'.
As it currently stands, it does not understand bash arrays.
use Shell::Var::Reader;
use Data::Dumper;
my $found_vars=Shell::Var::Reader->read_in('/usr/local/etc/someconfig.conf');
print Dumper($found_vars);
src_bin/shell_var_reader
This script allows for easy reading of a shells script/config and then outputing it in a desired format.
Gneral Flags
-r <file>
The file to read/run.
-o <format>
The output format.
Default: json
Formats: json,yaml,toml,dumper(Data::Dumper),shell,multi
'multi' will write out JSON, YAML, TOML, to respectively named dirs.
The -d can be used to specify the base dir, otherwise './' is used like
below.
./json_confs
./shell_confs
./toml_confs
./yaml_confs
Multi also requires --cmdb_host to be defined or to be findable via
--tcmdb.
-d <multi output base dir>
When using multi, this is the base directory used.
Default: .
-p
Pretty print. Not relevant to all outputs.
-s
Sort. Not relevant to all outputs.
-i <include>
Files to parse and include in the produced JSON, TOML, or YAML.
The included file may be either JSON, TOML, or YAML.
If a comma is included, everything before the comma is used as the key
name to include the parsed data as. Otherwise it will me merged.
Include Examples...
Read in bar.json and include it as the variable foo.
-i foo,bar.json
Read in foo.toml and merge it with what it is being merged into taking presidence.
-i foo.toml
Read in a.json and merge it, then read in in b.json and merge it.
-i a.jsom -i b.toml
Munging Flags
-m <munger>
File containing code to use for munging data prior to output. The file
will be read in and ran via eval.
The following are accessible and usable from with in it.
$found_Vars :: Hash reference containing the found variables with everything merged into it.
$format :: The output format to use.
$host_Vars :: The value of --host_vars .
@includes :: A array of containing the various values for -i .
$merger :: A Hash::Merge->new('RIGHT_PRECEDENT') object.
$munger_file :: The value of -m if specified.
$pretty :: If -p was specified or not.
$sort :: If -s was specified or not.
$tcmdb :: Path to the Rex TOML CMDB if specified.
$to_read :: The value of -r .
$use_roles :: The value of --use_rules .
To lets say you wanted to delete the variable 'foo', you could do it
like below.
delete($found_vars->{foo});
Or if wanted to set .suricata.enable and a few others based on
.SURICATA_INSTANCE_COUNT you could do it like below.
if ($found_vars->{SURICATA_INSTANCE_COUNT}) {
$found_vars->{suricata}{enable}=1;
$found_vars->{suricata_extract}{enable}=1;
$found_vars->{snmpd}{extends}{suricata}{enable}=1;
$found_vars->{snmpd}{extends}{suricata_extract}{enable}=1;
}
CMDB Flags
--tcmdb <dir>
Optionally include data from a Rex CMDB.
$tcmdb.'/.cmdb_type' contians the CMDB type to use. Lines matching /^#/
or /^[\ \t]$/ are ignored. The first line not matching those is used as
the value to use for Rex CMDB.
If that file does not exist, TOML, is used. For more info see
Rex::CMDB::TOML.
--cmdb_env <env>
Environment name to use with the CMDB.
Default :: undef
--env_var <vars>
If --cmdb_env is undef, check this comma seperated list JSON Paths in
the currently found/included vars for the first possible hit.
Default :: SYSTEM_ENV
--cmdb_host <host>
Hostname to use when querying the CMDB.
Default :: undef
--host_vars <vars>
If --cmdb_host is undef, check this comma seperated list JSON Paths in
the currently found/included vars for the first possible hit. For more
info the path stuff, see JSON::Path.
Default ::
HOSTNAME,REX_NAME,REX_HOSTNAME,ANSIBLE_HOSTNAME,ANSIBLE_NAME,NAME
--use_roles [01]
If roles should be used or not with the Rex TOML CMDB.
Default :: 1
src_bin/cmdb_shell_var_reader
--verbose <0/1>
A boolean value for if it should be verbose or not.
Default :: 1
-d <dir>
The directory to operate on. If undef, it will check the following
directories for the file '.shell_var_reader'.
./
../
../../
../../../
../../../../
shell_var_reader CMDB layout
Specifically named files.
- .shell_var_reader :: Marks the base directory as being for a shell_var_reader CMDB.
Specifically named directories.
- cmdb :: The TOML CMDB directory.
- json_confs :: Generated JSON confs.
- shell_confs :: Generated shell confs.
- toml_confs :: Generated TOML confs.
- yaml_confs :: Generated YAML confs.
Other directories that that don't start with a '.' or contiain a file named '.not_a_system_group' will be processed as system groups.
These directories will be searched for files directly below them for files ending in '.sh' and not starting with either a '_' or a '.'. The name used for a system is the name of the file minus the ending '.sh', so 'foo.bar.sh' would generate a config for a system named 'foo.bar'.
When it finds a file to use as a system config, it will point shell_var_reader at it with CMDB enabled and with the name of that system set the hostname to use with the CMDB. That name will also be saved as the variable 'SYSTEM_NAME', provided that variable is not defined already. If a 'munger.pl' exists, that file is used as the munger file. shell_var_reader will be ran four times, once to generate each config type.
The CMDB type is control by cmdb/.cmdb_type. Setting the contents to
for example YAMLwithRoles will cause YAMLwithRoles to be used as
the CMDB.

Integration With Ansible
This may easily be integrated with ansible such as like below.
- hosts: "{{ host }}"
var_files:
- ./json_confs/{{ inventory_hostname }}.json
And can easily be pushed out to servers like below, allowing scripts etc to easily make use of the generated configs.
- hosts: "{{ host }}"
order: sorted
gather_facts: false
ignore_errors: true
ignore_unreachable: true
become: true
become_method: sudo
serial: 1

- name: Copy System JSON Conf Into Place
ansible.builtin.copy:
src: ./json_confs/{{ inventory_hostname }}.json

- name: Copy System Shell Conf Into Place
ansible.builtin.copy:
src: ./shell_confs/{{ inventory_hostname }}.conf
