=== Setting db variables to default values ===
  −
Any db variable that has a default value can be reset to the default by deleting the variable entirely, then re-initializing the default database values as follows:
  −
config delprop <key> <prop>
  −
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/initialize-default-databases
  −
  −
==== Delete a property value ====
  −
To delete the property
  −
db accounts delprop <key> <prop>
  −
  −
==== Reset a property value ====
  −
To reset to an empty value
  −
db accounts setprop <key> <prop> <nowiki>''</nowiki>

Questions:<br />
  −
Does initialize-default-databases only set the defaults on poperties that are missing? If so I think that needs to be stated, I'd not want to set the entire db to defaults...
  −
  −
Yes, my reading is that it just returns defaults on those missing.
  −
  −
That is my reading as well but want to be absolutely sure.  B-)<br />

The angle brackets is how I always indicate that something is a marker rather than what you actually type. What is the contribs.org style?
  −
  −
Cool, do it..
  −
  −
"config ..."  or "db accounts ...", let's be consistent please. "db accounts ..." would only work if the <key> <prop> is in the accounts db wouldn't it? "config ..." works across all the db's doesn't it?<br />

The first command syntax is original text, what are you suggesting, change it or change the others

Change the "db accounts" to "config" if the config version is the one that works across all db's, which I think it is.<br />

Not sure about leaving out a command that works and is not just an old hanger on from a past release. Does it hurt? Can it cause confusion, don't think so.. [[User:Trex|Terry Fage]] ([[User talk:Trex|talk]]) 04:22, 15 February 2013 (MST)
