=head1 NAME

Rex - the friendly automation framework

=head1 DESCRIPTION

Rex is an automation framework that is friendly to any combinations of local
and remote execution, push and pull style of management, or imperative and
declarative approach.

Its flexibility makes it a great fit for many different use cases, but most
commonly Rex is used to automate application deployment and data center
infrastructure management tasks.

See L for a starting point of available built-in commands.

See L for more information about how to use rex on the command line.

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    # In a Rexfile:
    use Rex -feature => [qw/1.4/];

    user "root";
    password "ch4ngem3";

    desc "Show system information";
    task "sysinfo", sub {
       say run "uname -a";
    };

    1;

    # On the command line:
    $ rex -H server[01..10] sysinfo

=head1 FEATURE FLAGS

Everyone knows the pain if something gets deprecated and one has to
port his old (and stable) code to a new version of a library or a
framework. There is enough work to do instead of fixing code to work
with newer versions of them.

So there is one promise new versions of Rex has to fulfill. They must
be backward compatible.

I know this might be impossible in one way or another, but to minimize
this danger there is a thing called feature flags. If there is the need
to break backward compatibility in favor of a new feature there will be
a feature flag for this change. And only if this feature flag gets
enabled in the Rexfile it will break compatibility.

So the default is always to remain compatible.

If you have a problem that occurs after an update, it is considered as
a bug. Please report this bug in our issue tracker.

Also see the L
section of the CONTRIBUTING guide.

=head2 How to enable feature flags

You can enable feature flags in your Rexfile with the following code:

    use Rex -feature => ['1.4'];

or even multiple ones like this:

    use Rex -feature => [qw(1.4 exec_autodie)];

=head2 List of feature flags

=over 4

=item 1.4

Enable per-task argument parsing (L). Furthermore, all features from earlier versions are activated. Available since version 1.4.

=item no_task_chaining_cmdline_args

Disable per-task argument parsing. Available since version 1.4.

=item task_chaining_cmdline_args

Enable per-task argument parsing: C
so task1 only gets C and task2 only gets C. Available since version 1.4.

=item 1.3

Activating the new template engine by default. Furthermore, all features from earlier versions are activated. Available since version 1.3.

=item no_template_ng

Disabling the new template engine. Available since version 1.3.

=item 1.0

Disabling usage of a tty. This increases compatibility for remote
execution. Furthermore, all features from earlier versions are
activated. Available since version 1.0.

=item no_autodie

Will disable autodie feature. Available since version 1.0.

=item tty

Enable pty usage for ssh connections. Available since version 1.0.

=item template_ng

Enabling the new template engine (better error reporting, etc.). Available since version 0.56.

=item 0.56

Will activate autodie feature. Furthermore, all features from earlier
versions are activated. Available since version 0.56.

=item autodie

Will enable autodie feature: die on all failed L. Available since version 1.13.1.

=item 0.55

Will activate using L by default if present. Furthermore,
all features from earlier versions are activated. Available since version 0.55.

=item 0.54

Will activate checking services for existence before trying to
manipulate them, and C will overwrite already existing values
(instead of concatenating). Furthermore, all features from earlier
versions are activated. Available since version 0.54.

=item 0.53

Will activate register_cmdb_top_scope. And all things 0.51 and down
activated. Available since version 0.53.

=item register_cmdb_top_scope

Will register all cmdb top scope variables automatically in the
templates. Available since version 0.53.

=item 0.51

Will load L and the CMDB by default. And all things 0.47
and down activated. Available since version 0.51.

=item disable_taskname_warning

Disable warning about invalid task names (they should match
C). Available since version 0.47.

=item verbose_run

Explicitly output "Successfully executed" or "Error executing" messages
for C commands. Available since version 0.47.

=item no_cache

Disable caching (like discovery results of remote OS, hardware, shell,
etc.). Available since version 0.46.

=item no_path_cleanup

Controls whether Rex should use the default or explicitly configured C
settings when executing commands or not. See also the L
command and the L configuration option.
Available since version 0.44.

=item source_profile

Source C<$HOME/.profile> before running a command. Available since version 0.44.

=item source_global_profile

Source C before running a command. Available since version 0.44.

=item exec_autodie

If you execute a command with C Rex will C if the command
returns a C. Available since version 0.44.

=item exec_and_sleep

Sometimes some commands that fork away didn't keep running. With this
flag rex will wait a few ms before exiting the shell. Available since version 0.43.

=item disable_strict_host_key_checking

Disabling strict host key checking for openssh connection mode. Available since version 0.43.

=item reporting

Enable reporting. Available since version 0.43.

=item empty_groups

Enable usage of empty groups. Available since version 0.42.

=item use_server_auth

Enable the usage of special authentication options for servers. Available since version 0.42.

=item no_tty

=item no_local_template_vars

Use global variables in templates. Available since version 0.40.

=item sudo_without_sh

Run sudo commands directly without the use of 'sh'. This might break
things. Available since version 0.40.

=item sudo_without_locales

Run sudo commands without locales. This will break things if you don't
use English locales. Available since version 0.40.

=item exit_status

This option tells Rex to return a non zero value on exit if a task
fails. Available since version 0.39.

=item 0.35

This option enables the features of 0.31 and the possibility to call
tasks as a functions without the need to use a hash reference for the
parameters. Available since version 0.35.

=item 0.31

To enable special authentication options for a server group. This will
overwrite the default authentication options for a task. Available since version 0.31.
