Namemunin-get - a simple tool for managing plugins from remote repositoriesFeaturesThe small management tool "munin-get" supports the following actions:
The primary purpose of this tool is the simplification of the process of using plugins from munin's contrib repository. UsageAll actions except "install", "enable" and "disable" can be run as a regular user. Please note that the non-privileged commands use directories relative to $HOME by default (can be overridden). Thus sudo or a similar tool should be used for gaining privileges. Of course, everything can also be done as root.The separate "install" step works around potential problems with systemd hardening flags or other security policies, which may prevent files in /root/ or below /home/ from being accessed by the "munin-node" service process.

The separate "install" and "enable" procedure is necessary due to possible process namespace / hardening features enabled for "munin-node". Thus the target of the symlink is located in a path that can be expected to be usable even for a restricted "munin-node" process. Additionally the separate "install" location allows the manual review of upstream changes before applying these locally. AuthorLars Kruse <devel@sumpfralle.de>LicenseGPLv3+
