CFEngine 3 Blueprints

CFEngine 3 has been redesigned to allow modular solution building in terms of a simple, regular language. On this page you will find out how to use the CFEngine Community Open Promise-Body Library to express some simple idioms and approaches for solving common system problems.

CFEngine gives you great freedom to craft specific solutions, without the need for low level coding. For most tasks, you will find the standardized templates (blueprints) sufficient for your needs, but the possibilties do not stop there.

We divided our blueprints into three groups:

• Introduction Blueprints (setting up, generic processes)
• High-level Blueprints (centralized management, host management, etc.)
• Low-level Blueprints (ACL, file manipulation etc.)
