kintyre-splunk-conf

Ksconf Splunk CONFiguration tool

This utility handles common Splunk app maintenance tasks in an installable python package. Specifically, this tool deals with many of the nuances of storing Splunk apps in a version control system like git and pointing live Splunk apps to a working tree. Merging changes from the live system's (local) folder to the version controlled (default) folder and dealing with more than one layer of "default" are all supported tasks which are not native to Splunk. Tasks like creating new Splunk apps from your local system while merging the 'local' folder into 'default' is also supported.

Package rename

This package has been renamed ksconf starting with v0.10. Please switch to this new package using the upgrade steps listed below.

Suggested upgrade steps:

pip uninstall kintyre-splunk-conf
pip install ksconf

Who should keep using kintyre-splunk-conf?

For the time being, you can still install and upgrade the latest release of ksconf using the kintyre-splunk-conf package.

Note that as of the v0.10 release, only Python 3.7 and higher are supported. If you need a version of ksconf that works with Python 2.7 & Python 3.6, then you should use kintyre-splunk-conf prior to v0.10. We suggest that everyone else should upgrade to the latest ksconf package.

Side note: Attempts to make kintyre-splunk-conf simply install the new ksconf package under the covers resulted in an unusable deployment. So for now we are building two identical packages under different names. In the next minor release you can expect additional onscreen warnings about the package rename at every invocation.
