Module Devices.Key
Source
Command-line arguments for the Mirage configuration tool.
include module type of Functoria.Key
Configuration Keys
The type for configuration keys. Keys are used to parameterize the choice of module implementation.
create n a
is the key named n
whose contents is determined by parsing the command-line argument a
.
Configuration Values
The type for configure-time and run-time values. Values are either pure
or obtained by composing other values. Values might have data dependencies, which form an (implicit) directed and acyclic graph that need to be evaluated.
f $ v
is is the value resulting from the application of f
'value to v
's value. $
is the usual app operator for applicative functor.
Abstract Keys
The type for abstract keys.
Set
implements sets over t
elements.
Parsing context
type context := Functoria.Context.t
The type for values holding parsing context.
context ks
is a Cmdliner
term that evaluates into a parsing context for command-line arguments.
mem c v
is true
iff all the dependencies of v
have been evaluated.
eval c v
evaluates v
in c
's context, using default values if necessary.
get c k
is k
's value in c
's context. If k
is not present in c
, it is k
's default value.
find c k
is k
's value in c
's context or None
if k
is not present in c
.
Mirage keys
-t TARGET
: Key setting the configuration mode for the current project. Is one of "unix"
, "macosx"
, "xen"
, "qubes"
, "virtio"
, "hvt"
, "muen"
, "genode"
or "spt"
.
Generic keys
Some keys have a group
optional argument. This group argument allows to give several keys a prefix.
For example, if we have two ip
stacks, one external and one internal, We can use the group
option to name them in
and out
. This way, the available keys will be --in-ip
and --out-ip
.
If a key has another, non-optional argument. It is the default value.
Keys are always named the same as their command line option.
File system keys
The type of key value store. Is one of "crunch"
, or "direct"
.
Block device keys
