However, this would add a +dependency to build it. Is it acceptable? + +Another solution is to use a command line client and parse its output, but the +SQL syntax is so strange that I fear this will be painful. + +Another question is about password generation as I will need many passwords, I +would like to generate them using a crypto hash of a secret combined with a +public part in the propellor config. Do you have a suggestion to compute this +hash? I think a dependency on a hash library is easier to accept. + +Thanks. -- cgit v1.2.3
