The "manual" mode structural descriptions are write in a new files to separate things. But Rougail will concatenate variables and families.
We create a family, which will contain other variables.
This family has:
- a description
- a type
As there is no variable inside this family, the type is mandatory. Without it, Rougail will create a variable.
In fact, this family will be deleted by Rougail too because it is empty.
"Foo" should not be an option to the "proxy_mode" variable.
Now the "proxy_mode" type is "choice", that means that there is a list of available values that can be selected.
We say that the "proxy_mode" variable is constrained (by choices): this variable accept, in fact, only a list of choices.
Now we can define the default value of this variable.
If the user doesn't touch this variable's value, the value is "No proxy"
As user intervention is no more required, so the variable change it's default mode too (from "basic" to "standard").
We can add a description to this first variable.
This information is useful for:
- documentation
- error message
- help user to known which value to set to this variable (for example with [the user data plugin Questionary](https://forge.cloud.silique.fr/gnunux/rougail-user-data-questionary)).
In the Firefox configuration, it is possible to define several configuration modes,
from no proxy at all ("No proxy") to a kind of automatic configuration mode from a file
("Automatic proxy configuration URL").
We’re gonna create a first variable called "proxy_mode":
- accepts only a string as value
- requires a value (that is, None is not an option)
