=head1 NAME
~/.config/caretaker/caretaker.conf - L<ct>(1) configuration
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Contains configuration parameters for L<ct>(1)
The file consists of multiple lines of the form I<parameter>=I<value>.
Normal zsh syntax is allowed, which means everything after '#' will be treated
as comment and that there must be no space between the parameter and the content.
With the exception of B<PKG_ROOT>, all parameters are optional as they have
reasonable (so I hope) defaults.
=head1 OPTIONS
The text in (braces) refers to the ct commandline option with which the config
setting may be overridden (if present).
The text in [these braces] is the default value.
=over
=item B<PKG_ROOTS>=(I<url1> I<url2> I<...>) (--packageroot I<url>)
the package root paths, at least one must be set.
I<url> may either be of the form C<protocol://host/path> or C</path>,
the supported protocols are C<git> and C<ssh>.
Note that pushing is not possible when the C<git> protocol is used.
=item B<PKGLIST_PATH>=I<path> [$PKG_PATH/pkglist]
path to pkglist on the package root, to generate the package list.
In the default, $PKG_PATH means the path component of $PKG_ROOT.
=item B<PKGLIST_LOCAL>=I<boolean> [0]
If true, B<PKLIST_PATH> will always be executed on the local machine, regardless
of where the B<PKG_ROOT> lies. For possible uses of this setting, see
L<caretaker(7)/"THE PACKAGE LIST">
=item B<PKG_DIR>=I<path> (--packagedir I<path>) [$HOME/packages]
path for the local package tree
=item B<CL_OPTIONS>=(I<options>) (--checklinks-options I<options>) [-q]
Options to invoke L<checklinks>(1) with
=item B<MAGIC_ETC>=I<boolean> (--magic-etc) [1]
Automatically run checklinks on files (or, if present, dotfiles) in F<etc/>
=item B<COLOURS>=I<boolean> (--colours) [1]
Colorize the output (cyan for info messages, red for errors/warnings)
=item B<HOOK_ON_PUSH>=I<boolean> (--hook-on-push) [1]
Execute pre-update / post-update hooks when running C<< ct push >>.
If set to 0, you need to run ct refresh by hand to execute these hooks after
changing a package.
=item B<PROGRESS>=I<boolean> (--progress) [1]
Show a progress bar when performing tasks on all packages
=item B<SILENT>=I<boolean> (--quiet) [0]
Operate in silent mode. If B<1>, it also sets PROGRESS=0
=item B<AUTOUPDATE>=I<boolean> (--auto-update) [1]
If 1, automatically execute 'ct update' before 'ct push'
and 'ct update remote' before 'ct upgrade'
=item B<GIT_USE_ORIGIN>=I<boolean> [1]
By default, caretaker will simply issue a git push/pull, so that git will use the
repository's origin to determine where to push/pull.
If you regularly change your PKG_ROOT, are too lazy to properly configure your
git repos or whatever, set this to 0. Then, caretaker will always call git pull/push
with both the remote repo and the branch as arguments.
=item B<function pkg_hook_>I<hook> {I<content>}
Define the global hook I<hook>, its I<content> will be executed
together with caretaker's global hooks; the name of the package for which the hook is
being executed will be given as first parameter and is accessible throug B<$1>.
The hook is just a zsh function, so you can use any valid syntax you want,
including newlines.
See zsh(1) for more.
Valid I<hook> names are: post-add, pre-update, post-update, pre-remove.
Note that post-add automatically executes post-update.
Example: function pkg_hook_post-update {clear_line; echo "Hello from package $1!"}
=back
=head2 COLOURS
Colours are defined in the same way as options. They take an ANSI escape code
as argument.
=over
=item B<c_info>=I<colour> (C<$'\e[0;36m'>)
Colour for informational messages (default: cyan)
=item B<c_error>=I<colour> (C<$'\e[0;31m'>)
Colour for warning and error messages (default: red)
=back
