I have made some extension for Facter to match my requirements. Most of these extensions are only useful for Gentoo installations. Please leave a comment if you like the addons.
gcc_profile.rb
Facter plugin to get the currently active GCC profile on Gentoo installations. It may work on other distributions too.
Facter.add(:gcc_profile) do confine :operatingsystem => :Gentoo setcode do profile = nil output = %x{/usr/bin/gcc-config -c} profile = output.chop! profile end end
system_profile.rb
Facter plugin to get the currently active Gentoo system profile. Plugin uses eselect so you need to have it installed.
Facter.add(:system_profile) do confine :operatingsystem => :Gentoo setcode do profile = nil output = %x{/usr/bin/eselect --brief --no-color profile show | tr -d ' '} profile = output.chop! profile end end
default_gw.rb
Facter plugin to return the deault gw set in systems routing table. Requires iproute2 package installed.
Facter.add(:default_gw) do confine :kernel => :linux setcode do gw = nil output = %x{/sbin/ip route show} output.each { |line| if line =~ /^default\s+via\s+([0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3})/ gw = $1 break end } gw end end
