[PATCH nft 1/2] libnftables: add base directory of -f/--filename to include path

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch adds an include path relative to the current (the including)
file's directory.

Users of -f/--filename have to explicitly specify -I with a redundant
path to find included files in the main file, eg.

 # nft -I /path/to/files -f /path/to/files/ruleset.nft

Assuming:

 # cat /path/to/files/ruleset.nft
 include "file1.nft"
 include "file2.nft"
 include "file3.nft"
