Config::Model and configuration upgrades during package upgrade
For a casual user, editing configuration files in /etc in an intimidating task. Manually managing configuration upgrade is even worse as it requires good knowledge to merge current configuration data with new data coming from new packages.
Config::Model was designed to make user's life easier by providing a configuration GUI and handle configuration upgrades transparently.
This presentation will explain how to provide these capabilities and will cover:
- the main notions or Config::Model (config tree and model)
- how to create a model
- how to interface the model with the configuration files
- how package and configuration upgrade is performed
- how to specify upgrade feature in the configuration model
