[Puppet Users] permissions and ownership of files in bulk
Is there an easy way to control the permission and ownership in bulk
when creating quite a few files? I''m finding a lot of my recipes
contain file{} definitions of this form:
file {
"/var/foo":
ensure => directory,
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0755;
"/var/foo/bar":
ensure => directory,
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0755;
"/var/foo/bar/xyzzy":
ensure => present,
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0644;
}
I''d be fine with some bulk owner => root, group => root, umask
=> 022.
Yours,
Garth.

Your stuff could be shortened to: """ File { ensure => directory, owner => "root", group => "root", mode => 0755, } file { "/var/foo": "/var/foo/bar": "/var/foo/var/xyzzy": ensure => present; } """ Warning: not tested!
