Puppet users - Feb 2009 - Excluding .svn directories with recursive file management

Hello,

   I have a directory with subdirectories and files managed by puppet
and keep all contents in subversion. I use a subversion tag to check
these files out as my source on the puppet master. I then have a class
set up to manage the base directory using the recusive option.

   The problem is that puppet copies all of the .svn subdirectories
too. Does anyone know of a way to exclude these from the copy?

I was curious about this too. I was just doing an "svn export" but
I''d
love to see a real fix.

you can do a general exclude on top of your manifests. like:
http://git.black.co.at/?p=manifests;a=blob;f=manifests/common.pp;h=f8d80b20a3570135d958964e3df2e6f93cd4ca8d;hb=a3cadeb33161169ce8743cd77a4a3cd8d38715c8

However as the ignore is a regexp. You should acutally do ignore =>
''\.svn''

My file section that does this looks like:

               file
                { "/var/bb/$bbVersion":
                        path      => "/var/bb/$bbVersion",
                        owner     => bb,
                        group     => bb,
                        mode      => 775,
                        recurse   => true,
                        source    => "puppet:///bigbrother/
$bbVersion.generic",
                        require   => [ file["/var/bb"],
user["bb"] ],
                        ignore    => ".svn"
                }

Note the ignore ... though i really don''t think i''m adding to
Pete''s
post :)
cheers
