Prescription DocumentΒΆ

Prescription documents describe the desired state of a resource. Each resource type has its own schema for its Prescription documents. Go to Resources to see the complete list of resource-specific Prescription documents.

These documents are given to a Performer which make the changes necessary to match the prescription.

For example, if we want to make sure the file /tmp/foo does not exist, we could prescribe that with this document:

{
    "kind": "file",
    "name": "/tmp/foo",
    "exists": false
}

XXX The prescription is actually a list of Prescriptions. Somehow, each one should be associated with which steps are a result of it and should be cast into buckets depending on step success/failure (note from notebook – may overlap with steps document).
