            1 configuration
            2 =============
            3 
            4 much of the `libdevuansdk` configuration is done in `libdevuansdk/config`. here
            5 you can edit the defaults if you wish to do something your needs are expressing.
            6 
            7 ## config file
            8 
            9 `vars` and `arrs` are global arrays holding other global variables and arrays.
           10 this is required for `zuper` and helps a lot with debugging. if you declare new
           11 variables or arrays, add them to `vars` and `arrs`, respectively.
           12 
           13 * `os`  
           14   holds the name of the distro being worked on.
           15 
           16 * `release`  
           17   holds the release name of the distro. used for apt repos mostly.
           18 
           19 * `version`  
           20   current version of the distro being worked on.
           21 
           22 * `mirror`  
           23   a mirror holding the packages for `debootstrap`.
           24 
           25 * `section`  
           26   sections of the repo. for adding in `/etc/apt/sources.list`. separate them
           27   with whitespaces.
           28 
           29 * `image_name`  
           30   output name of the raw image. if you declare `device_name`, it will be added.
           31   `arm-sdk` does this.
           32 
           33 * `core_packages`  
           34   this array holds the core packages that will be installed in the bootstrap
           35   process.
           36 
           37 * `base_packages`  
           38   this array holds the base packages that will be installed later in the
           39   bootstrap process.
           40 
           41 * `purge_packages`  
           42   this array holds the packages that will get purged at the end of the bootstrap
           43   process.
           44

           46 ## overriding things
           47 
           48 to be able to override specific unwanted functions of libdevuansdk, consider
           49 sourcing it earlier in the process of initialization.
           50 
           51 it is possible to override default variables, or even functions without the need
           52 of editing libdevuansdk. share a patch with me if you wish :)
