similar ideas
Mar 11 2008  on content MountManager

Hello

Looks like we have similar ideas about improving configuration on Linux. I've have been working on providing a similar interface to configure /etc/fstab (albeit as an example to Config::Model).
http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=155650

The main difference is that you choose to implement dedicated classes to store fstab data (FsTabRecord), and all data validation looks mixed with the presentation code (Qt part). I fear that maintenance and evolution will not be easy. Though I must admit that your GUI looks nicer than the one I have. :o)

On my side, I've completely separated the presentation (Tk GUI) from the validation part. Furthermore the characteristics of the data that can be found in fstab in stored in a data structure (what I call a configuration model) and not mixed with validation code http://search.cpan.org/src/DDUMONT/Config-Model-0.619/examples/fstab/Fstab.pl. The Tk GUI is generated from the configuration model so maintenance and evolution is easier. This approach also offers the possibility to generate other kind of interface (Curses, Qt, Web, Webmin). Or to provide other configuration models to get other configuration tools (like Xorg http://search.cpan.org/dist/Config-Model-Xorg/
https://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=155650&ssid=78913)

Since we have similar goals, I hope we will find ways to share ideas or work together despite the perl/python language difference.

If you want more information, the homepage of my project is http://config-model.wiki.sourceforge.net/

All the best
