<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::inspect</strong></span></span> provides introspection into the running
configuration of Rivet. Rivet's debug command uses it in order to gain insight
into the configuration, but it can be used in any script.
</p><p style="width:90%">
<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::inspect</strong></span></span> can be called in three forms
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="square"><li class="listitem" style="list-style-type: square">
Passing as argument the switch ?<span style="font-family:monospace; font-weight: bold;">-all</span>? a dictionary
carrying the whole configuration is returned
</li><li class="listitem" style="list-style-type: square">
With one argument (one of the Rivet configuration directives)
<span style="font-family:monospace"><span class="command"><strong>::rivet::inspect</strong></span></span> returns the current value
in the configuration record
</li><li class="listitem" style="list-style-type: square">
With no argument the command returns a dictionary with 3
keys: server, dir, user. Each key is associated to a subdictionary
carrying the configuration lines actually set. Configuration directives
are the keys in the second level dictionary. In this form the command is
meant to provide a way to create global arrays RivetServerConf,
RivetDirConf and RivetUserConf which are internally used by ::rivet::debug
