For what it worth, I already raised this discussion some month ago as we wrote some perl modules equivalent to ocf-shellfuncs, ocf-returncodes and ocf-directories. See: Subject: [ClusterLabs Developers] Perl Modules for resource agents (was: Resource Agent language discussion) Date: Thu, 26 Nov 2015 01:13:36 +0100 I don't want to start a flameware about languages here, this is not about that. Maybe it would be a good time to include various libraries for different languages in official source? At least for ocf-directories which is quite simple, but often tied to the configure options in various distro. We had to make a ugly wrapper around the ocf-directories librairie on build time to produce our OCF_Directories.pm module on various distros.
