Instructions

Please refer to https://github.com/bechtoldt/formula-docs to learn how to use this formula, how it is built and how you can add your changes.

NOTICE: This formula might uses the formhelper module which is a very useful Salt execution module that isn't available in upstream yet. Please consider retrieving it manually from https://github.com/bechtoldt/salt-modules and make it available to your Salt installation. Read SaltStack documentation to see how this can be achieved.

Take a look at older releases (branches) to get a version that isn't using the formhelper yet (if any).

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! All development guidelines we ask you to follow can be found at https://github.com/bechtoldt/formula-docs.

In general:

1. Fork this repo on Github
2. Add changes, test them, update docs (README.rst) if possible
3. Submit your pull request (PR) on Github, wait for feedback

But it’s better to file an issue with your idea first.
