NAME
       cdist-type__sensible_editor - Select the sensible-editor


DESCRIPTION
       This cdist type allows you to select the sensible-editor for a given user.


REQUIRED PARAMETERS
       editor Name  or  path of the editor to be selected.  On systems other than Debian derivatives an absolute
              path is required.
                 It is permissible to omit this parameter if --state is absent.


OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
       state  'present', 'absent', or 'exists'. Defaults to 'present', where:

              present
                     the sensible-editor is exactly what is specified in --editor.

              absent no sensible-editor configuration is present.

              exists the sensible-editor will be set to what is specified in --editor, unless there already is a
                     configuration on the target system.


EXAMPLES
          __sensible_editor root --editor /bin/ed  # ed(1) is the standard
          __sensible_editor noob --editor nano


LIMITATIONS
       This type depends upon the sensible-editor(1) script which is part of the sensible-utils package.

       Therefore, the following operating systems are supported:

              • Debian 8 (jessie) or later

              • Devuan

              • Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid) or later

              • RHEL/CentOS 7 or later (EPEL repo required)

              • Fedora 21 or later

       Note: on old versions of Ubuntu the sensible-* utils are part of the debianutils package.
