After much help from David Lutterkort, I have a first cut of an Augeas lens for Cobbler . The settings file is basically a single YAML document, so this lens could be used to do generic yaml processing, but I would assume it would need some tweaks before then.

I figure it is best to get the first cut out there though. So here it is.

(* 
	Parse the /etc/cobbler/settings file  which is in 
	YAML 1.0 format.
	
	The lens can handle the following contructs
	* key: value
	* key: "value"
	* key: 'value'
	* key: [value1, value2]
	* key:
	   - value1
	   - value2
	* key:
	   key2: value1
	   key3: value2

My next steps will be to clean this up, and to submit it along with some tests.
