Project Illuminati is an absurdly multithreaded application designed for fast and flexible versioning of on-disk and live system configurations.
Backed by a Git repository, it provides a fast and easy means of comparing and maintaining configuration changes.
We highly recommend uploading your configuration files into a GitLab repository for beautiful web-based diffs. RANCID is Rancid.
- Ruby 1.9.3+
- Ruby Bundler
- Devkit (Only applicable to Windows)
- rsync (command-line executable - Cygwin recommended for Windows)
- ssh (command-line executable - required for rsync over SSH)
Open p2.sample.yml in your favorite YAML editor (that's Notepad++, right?) for documentation on the configuration file.
bundle install
bundle exec ruby p2.rb -f [configuration file] -n [YAML root section name]
Currently, there is a potential race condition with SSH hosts that rudely close the channel, resulting in only a partial capture of data. this typically only applies to older Cisco devices and the like, fortunately.
