More includes (for the advanced scripting -- again, tapping into what /usr/share/bsdconfig/script.subr provides), there are sub-directories in /usr/share/bsdconfig (but again, script.subr brings them all in): media/ -- one file for each type of media (FTP, HTTP, HTTP Proxy, NFS, ... etc.) networking/ -- scripts for getting, setting, and interactively modifying network packages/ -- package management password/ -- root password startup/ -- rc.conf(5) and startup services timezone/ -- like tzsetup usermgmt/ -- user management stuff Each of those includes a lot of low-level functionality but it's all documented very well. That being said... there's one more avenue of scripting. All of the bsdconfig(8) modules that act as front-ends to the above libraries. Those are in /usr/libexec/bsdconfig -- and you can call those from your bsdinstall ``/etc/installerconf'' too. # Example A /usr/libexec/bsdconfig/090.timezone/timezone However, it's far easier to just say: # Example B bsdconfig timezone For a list of keywords to the modules, say either: bsdconfig -h *or* Peruse the diagram (which is generated by "bsdconfig dot"): http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/download/bsdconfig/bsdconfig-HEAD-20130506-3i.svg The green parallelograms are the bsdconfig keywords, and the blue rectangles represent the modules (mousing over it will show the /usr/libexec/bsdconfig path in a tooltip). -- Devin > -- > Devin > > _____________ > The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential. > If you are not the intended recipient, please: (i) delete the message and all > copies; (ii) do not disclose, distribute or use the message in any manner; > and (iii) notify the sender immediately.
