Summary0000190: Bareos director should be able to provide information about possible configuration options
DescriptionThere are some approaches to extract the configuration data structure and possible commands from Bareos.
This have been used to generate the configuration management tools or automatic documentation.

Instead of extracting the information by regexes from the source code, it would be better, if the bareos director would be able to deliver this kind of informations.
Additional InformationThe existing project is available at http://trac.dass-it.de/pub/browser/dassmodus/trunk/dassmodus/nosferatu/ and especially http://trac.dass-it.de/pub/browser/dassmodus/trunk/dassmodus/nosferatu/nosferatu/tools/bacsource2configrules.py
but would need further adjustment to Bareos.

It produces python structures, that represent Bacula/Bareos configuration options. A resulting file can be seen at http://trac.dass-it.de/pub/browser/dassmodus/trunk/dassmodus/nosferatu/nosferatu/auto_configrules.py

The format delivert from the Director could be quite similiar, but more flexible and in a standard format as for example JSON..

The source code looks like this:
static RES_ITEM cat_items[] = {
   { "name", store_name, ITEM(res_cat.hdr.name), 0, ITEM_REQUIRED, NULL },
   { "description", store_str, ITEM(res_cat.hdr.desc), 0, 0, NULL },
   { "address", store_str, ITEM(res_cat.db_address), 0, 0, NULL },
...

This should get translated to something similar like

director.catalog.items=[
'name' = [
type=BareosName,
required=True,
multivalue=False,
defaultvalue=None,
deprecatedSince=None,
],
"description" = [
type=String,
required=False,
multivalue=False,
defaultvalue=None,
deprecatedSince=None,
],
"address" = [
type=String,
required=False,
multivalue=False,
defaultvalue=None,
deprecatedSince=None,
],
...


A deprecated option should be displayed like this:
"outdatedoption" = [
type=String,
required=False,
multivalue=False,
defaultvalue="test",
deprecatedSince="13.4.0",
],

I would also appreciate, if the structure contains fields like:
'includedSinceVersion' = "12.4.1",
TagsNo tags attached.

daemons: dumping configuration and schema

json schema export (-xs):
This has already been implemented for bareos-dir.
This patch adds exporting the configuration schema
by calling the program with the "-xs" option
also for bareos-fd, bareos-sd, bconsole and tray-monitor.

json schema export by using option "-xs", instead of option "-x".

Add schema export schema of datatypes.

extend RES_ITEM with versions and description
Configuration directives can now contain information about
when they have been added and a short description.
This helps creating an update-to-date documentation.

beautfied JSON output

Daemons dumps current configuration when called with option "-xc"
