Introduction

Different configurations might use different values for TRUE/FALSE. The boolean plugin canonicalizes boolean values.

Example

# Mount plugin
sudo kdb mount config.ecf user/tests/boolean dump boolean

# By default the plugin uses `1` (true) and `0` (false) to represent boolean values
kdb set user/tests/boolean/truthiness false
kdb setmeta user/tests/boolean/truthiness type boolean
kdb get user/tests/boolean/truthiness
#> 0

# The plugin does not change ordinary values
kdb set user/tests/boolean/key value
kdb get user/tests/boolean/key
#> value

# Undo changes
kdb rm -r user/tests/boolean
sudo kdb umount user/tests/boolean

Configuration

• on/true specifies the normalized value for TRUE. Default: 1
• on/false specifies the normalized value for FALSE. Default: 0
• on/invalid specifies the normalized value for keys that don't contain a valid boolean value. Values: TRUE, FALSE. Default: TRUE.
• on/invalid/warning specifies if the plugin will yield a warning when a invalid value is found during kdbGet. Values: TRUE, FALSE. Default: TRUE
• true specifies a (case insensitive) list of valid TRUE-values. The values have to be separated by a ;. Default: TRUE; 1; ON; ENABLE; ENABLED; YES
• false specifies a (case insensitive) list of valid FALSE-values. The values have to be separated by a ;. Default: FALSE; 0; OFF; DISABLE; DISABLED; NO; NOT
