       cdist-type__uci - Manage configuration values in UCI

DESCRIPTION

       This  cdist  type  can  be  used  to  alter  configuration  options  in  OpenWrt's Unified
       Configuration Interface (UCI) system.

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

       value  The value to be set. Can be used multiple times.   This  parameter  is  ignored  if
              --state is absent.

              is passed to the type as a single shell argument.

              to auto-detect based on the number of --value parameters.
