| | 16 | == Pan language compiler == |
| | 17 | quattor profiles are written using the pan language. The pan language compiler builds a set of machine configuration profiles from a high-level configuration written in the pan language. The machine configuration profiles are usually XML formatted files, although text, [http://www.graphviz.org/ Graphviz], and [http://hypergraph.sourceforge.net/ HyperGraph] formats are also supported. See the [https://sourceforge.net/projects/quattor/files/ files] section for the latest version of the compiler. The releases also include a pan language compiler and pan compiler manual. |
