Type ExtensionsConfig

object --+

        ExtensionsConfig


Class representing Cedar Backup extensions configuration.

Extensions configuration is used to specify "extended actions" implemented by code external to Cedar Backup. For instance, a hypothetical third party might write extension code to collect Subversion repository data. If they write a properly-formatted extension function, they can use the extension configuration to map a command-line Cedar Backup action (i.e. "subversion") to their function.

As with all of the other classes that represent configuration sections, all of these values are optional. It is up to some higher-level construct to decide whether everything they need is filled in. Some validation is done on non-None assignments through the use of the Python property() construct.

The following restrictions exist on data in this class:
