The useradd
class supports the addition of users
or groups for usage by the package on the target.
For example, if you have packages that contain system services that
should be run under their own user or group, you can use this class to
enable creation of the user or group.
The meta-skeleton/recipes-skeleton/useradd/useradd-example.bb
recipe in the Source Directory
provides a simple example that shows how to add three
users and groups to two packages.
See the useradd-example.bb
recipe for more
information on how to use this class.
The useradd
class supports the
USERADD_PACKAGES
,
USERADD_PARAM
,
GROUPADD_PARAM
,
and
GROUPMEMS_PARAM
variables.
