NAME

       cdist-type__acl - Set ACL entries

DESCRIPTION

       Fully supported and tested on Linux (ext4 filesystem), partial support for FreeBSD.

       See setfacl and acl manpages for more details.

       One of --entry or --source must be used.

OPTIONAL MULTIPLE PARAMETERS

       entry  Set ACL entry following getfacl output syntax.  Must be used if --source is not used.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

       source Read  ACL  entries  from  stdin or file.  Ordering of entries is not important.  When reading from
              file, comments and empty lines are ignored.  Must be used if --entry is not used.

       file   Create/change file with __file using user:group:mode pattern.

       directory
              Create/change directory with __directory using user:group:mode pattern.

BOOLEAN PARAMETERS

       default
              Set all ACL entries as default too.  Only directories can have default ACLs.  Setting default  ACL
              in FreeBSD is currently not supported.

       recursive
              Make setfacl recursive (Linux only), but not getfacl in explorer.

       remove Remove undefined ACL entries.  mask and other entries can't be removed, but only changed.

EXAMPLES

          __acl /srv/project \
              --default \
              --recursive \
              --remove \
              --entry user:alice:rwx \
              --entry user:bob:r-x \
              --entry group:project-group:rwx \
              --entry group:some-other-group:r-x \
              --entry mask::r-x \
              --entry other::r-x

          # give Alice read-only access to subdir,
          # but don't allow her to see parent content.

          __acl /srv/project2 \
              --remove \
              --entry default:group:secret-project:rwx \
              --entry group:secret-project:rwx \
              --entry user:alice:--x

          __acl /srv/project2/subdir \
              --default \
              --remove \
              --entry group:secret-project:rwx \
              --entry user:alice:r-x

          # read acl from stdin
          echo 'user:alice:rwx' \
              | __acl /path/to/directory --source -

          # create/change directory too
          __acl /path/to/directory \
              --default \
              --remove \
              --directory root:root:770 \
              --entry user:nobody:rwx
