"""
To add configuration instructions for a new use case, define a new class that
inherits from Advice class.

You should create a plugin file for it in ipaserver/advise/plugins folder.

The class can run any arbitrary code or IPA command via api.Command['command']()
calls. It needs to override get_info() method, which returns the formatted
advice string.

>>> class sample_advice(Advice):
>>>     description = 'Instructions for machine with SSSD 1.0 setup.'

Description provided shows itself as a header and in the list of all advices
currently available via ipa-advise.

Optionally, you can require root privileges for your plugin:

>>>     require_root = True

The following method should be implemented in your plugin:

>>>.....def get_info():
>>>         self.log.debug('Entering execute() method')
>>>         self.log.comment('Providing useful advice just for you')
>>>         self.log.command('yum update sssd -y')

As you can see, Advice's log has 3 different levels. Debug lines are printed
out with '# DEBUG:' prefix if --verbose had been used. Comment lines utilize
'# ' prefix and command lines are printed raw.

As a result, you can redirect the advice's output directly to a script file.

# ipa-advise sample-advice > script.sh
# ./script.sh

Important! Do not forget to register the class to the API.

>>> api.register(sample_advice)
