Time Nick Message 03:31 * jimi_c__ was playing with cobbler + mysql today 03:32 jimi_c had a proof of concept working pretty quickly 03:38 jimi_c of course it means using mysql as a key/value store... 12:53 pdurbin jimi_c: oh? you don't like how cobbler stores its data in json? 13:07 pdurbin i love me some json 13:15 jimi_c i love json :) I was just saying in order to avoid having to use a database schema mysql would be kind of bastardized to just store a key/value - the value being json 13:15 jimi_c there's always been a demand for database support 13:16 pdurbin interesting 13:16 pdurbin facter is key/value. strings only. we're starting to shove json into the value :) 13:16 pdurbin agoddard: yes, i know ohai is json already :) 13:17 jimi_c i'm really interested in postgres9.2 when it drops, since it has a native json field type 13:18 pdurbin oh yeah. i heard about that... 13:18 pdurbin some of the nosql databases use json, right? 13:18 jimi_c yes, i have a beta serializer already for mongodb 13:19 jimi_c mdehaan had made one back in the day for couchdb also - but i'd call it alpha quality 13:19 jimi_c more of a POC 13:19 jimi_c http://cobbler.github.com/manuals/2.2.3/5/18_-_Alternative_Storage_Backends.html 13:35 pdurbin "Today, cobbler ships two such modules alternate backends: MongoDB and CouchDB" 13:36 pdurbin crazy! so i guess the default is flat files, like we're using 13:36 pdurbin oh. it says as much :) 13:36 pdurbin no mention of git on that page, and how well it works with the flat files 13:41 jimi_c that's a different section :) 13:42 pdurbin oh :) 13:43 jimi_c although it's not filled out... 13:43 jimi_c 5.20 13:43 jimi_c so it _will_ be a different section :) 13:43 jimi_c a guy has been hitting me up for git help via email, he's wanting to help contribute to the docs 13:44 jimi_c I am more than willing to do some hand holding to get help in the docs :) 13:44 pdurbin "coming soon" :) -- Data Revision Control - http://cobbler.github.com/manuals/2.2.3/5/20_-_Data_Revision_Control.html 13:45 pdurbin it works great. we use the heck out of it 13:45 pdurbin though it only covers /var/lib/cobbler and not /etc/cobbler, so i put that in git on my own 13:46 jimi_c right, i think you were the one who first pointed that out to me 13:54 pdurbin you asked me to make a ticket but i'm a slacker 13:57 jimi_c heh 14:02 pdurbin though honestly, i'm not sure how you'd accomplish that with git... tracking /var/lib/cobbler and /etc/cobbler in the same repo. maybe it's best to just have two repos, like i have. maybe there's some git submodule trickery you could do, but i've only recently scratched the surface with git submodules 14:03 jimi_c yeah, it wouldn't be one repo 14:03 jimi_c i don't think you can do it with two directory trees 17:54 Pax hey gang 18:06 pdurbin Pax: hey 19:27 pdurbin Expression Quantitative Trait Loci web server 19:27 pdurbin everyone should have one 21:14 pdurbin_m http://phabricator.org - some bug tracker thing from Facebook
