Puppet users - Jul 2010 - ANNOUNCE: Puppet 2.6.0 - Release Candidate 1 available!

Welcome back again to the Puppet release cycle with the long-awaited
eleventy times better 2.6.0rc1 release!

The 2.6.0 release is a major feature release and includes a huge variety
of new features, fixes, updates and enhancements.  These include the
complete cut-over from XMLRPC to the REST API, numerous language
enhancements, a complete rewrite of the events and reporting system, an
internal Ruby DSL, a single binary, a new HTTP report processor, and a
myriad of other enhancements.

As a result of the bucket-load of new features and enhancements we also
need lots of help testing it.  Please run up the release candidate in
your test environment or using VMs and test it as extensively as
possible.

We''ve include release notes below that you can also see at:

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Release_Notes

The release candidate is available for download at:

http://puppetlabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-2.6.0rc1.tar.gz

Please note that all final releases of Puppet are signed with the
Puppet Labs key (we''ll sign the production release with the new,
improved Puppet Labs key).

See the Verifying Puppet Download section at
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Downloading_Puppet

Please test this release candidate and report feedback via the
Puppet Labs Redmine site:

Please select an affected version of 2.6.0rc1.

RELEASE NOTES

Language

Support for parameterised classes

The 2.6.0 release provides an extension to the existing class syntax to
allow parameters to be passed to classes. This brings classes more in
line with definitions, with the significant difference that definitions
have multiple instances whilst classes remain singletons.

To create a class with parameters you can now specify:

class apache($version) {
... class contents ...
}

Classes with parameters are NOT added using the include function but
rather the resulting class can then be included more like a definition:

node webserver {
    class { apache: version => "1.3.13" }
}

Like definitions, you can also specify default parameter values in your
class like so:

class apache($version="1.3.13",$home="/var/www") {
... class contents ...
}

New relationship syntax

You can now specify relationships directly in the language:

File[/foo] -> Service[bar]

Specifies a normal dependency while:

File[/foo] ~> Service[bar]

Specifies a subscription.

You can also do relationship chaining, specifying multiple relationships
on a single line:

File[/foo] -> Package[baz] -> Service[bar]

Note that while it’s confusing, you don’t have to have all of the arrows
be the same direction:

File[/foo] -> Service[bar] <~ Package[baz]

This can provide some succinctness at the cost of readability.

You can also specify full resources, rather than just resource references:

file { "/foo": ensure => present } -> package { bar: ensure
=> installed }

But wait! There’s more! You can also specify a subscription on either
side of the relationship marker:

yumrepo { foo: .... }
package { bar: provider => yum, ... }
Yumrepo <| |> -> Package <| provider == yum |>

This, finally, provides easy many to many relationships in Puppet, but
it also opens the door to massive dependency cycles. This last feature
is a very powerful stick, and you can considerably hurt yourself with it.

Run Stages

Run Stages are a way for you to provide coarse-grained ordering in your
manifests without having to specify relationships to every resource you
want in a given order. It’s most useful for setup work that needs to be
done before the vast majority of your catalog even works – things like
configuring yum repositories so your package installs work.

Run Stages are currently (intentionally) a bit limited – you can only
put entire classes into a run stage, you can’t put individual resources
there.

There’s a main stage that resources all exist in by default; if you
don’t use run stages, everything’s in this, but it doesn’t matter to
you. You can define new stages via the new stage resource type:

stage { pre: before => Stage[main] }

Here we’ve used the before metaparameter but you could also use after,
require, etc to establish the necessary relationships between stages.

Now you just specify that your class belongs in your new run stage:

class yum { ... }
class redhat {
  ...
  class { yum: stage => pre }
}

This will make sure that all of the resources in the yum are applied
before the main stage is applied.

Note that we’re using the new parameterized classes here – this is
necessary because of the class-level limitations of Run Stages. These
limitations are present because of the complication of trying to
untangle resource dependencies across stage boundaries if we allowed
arbitrary resources to specify stages.

On a related note, if you specify a stage for a given class, you should
specify as few as possible explicit relationships to or from that class.
Otherwise you risk a greater chance of dependency cycles.

This can all be visualized relatively easily using the —graph option to
puppetd and opening the graphs in OmniGraffle or GraphViz.

Specifying the ordering of Run Stages also works much better when
specified using the new relationship syntax, too:

stage { [pre, post]: }
Stage[pre] -> Stage[main] -> Stage[post]

This way it’s very easy to see at a glance exactly how the stages are
ordered.

Support for hashes in the DSL

This brings a new container syntax to the Puppet DSL: hashes.

Hashes are defined like Ruby Hashes:

{ key1 => val1, ... }

The Hash keys are strings but hash values can be any possible right
values admitted in Puppet DSL (i.e. a function call or a variable)

Currently it is possible:

* to assign hashes to a variable
$myhash = { key1 => "myval", key2 => $b }

* to access hash members (recursively) from a variable containing a hash
(works for array too):

$myhash = { key => { subkey => "b" }}
notice($myhash[key][subkey]]

* to use hash member access as resource title

* to use hash in default definition parameter or resource parameter if
the type supports it (known for the moment).

It is not possible to string interpolate an hash access. If it proves to
be an issue it can be added or worked around with a string concatenation
operator easily.

It is not possible to use an hash as a resource title. This might be
possible once we support compound resource title.

Support for an elsif syntax

Allows use of an elsif construct:

  if $server == ''mongrel'' {
      include mongrel
  } elsif $server == ''nginx'' {
      include nginx
  } else {
      include thin
  }

Case and Selectors now support undef

The case and selector statements now support the undef syntax (see #2818).

Pure Ruby Manifests

Puppet now supports pure Ruby manifests as equivalent to Puppet’s custom
language. That is, you can now have Ruby programs along side your Puppet
manifests. As is our custom, it’s a limited first version, but it covers
most of the specification functionality of the current language. For
instance, here’s a simple ssh class:

hostclass :ssh do
  package "ssh", :ensure => :present
  file "/etc/ssh/sshd_config", :source =>
"puppet:///ssh/sshd_config",
:require => "Package[ssh]"
  service :sshd, :ensure => :running, :require =>
"File[/etc/ssh/sshd_config]"
end

Similar to the ‘hostclass’ construct here, you can specify defined
resource types:

define "apache::vhost", :ip, :docroot, :modperl => false do
  file "/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/#{@name}.conf", :content =>
template("apache/vhost.erb")
end

As you can see from this code, the parameters for the resources become
instance variables inside of the defined resource types (and classes,
now that we support parameterized classes).

We can do nodes, too:

node “mynode” do
  include “apache”
end

Ruby has become a first-class citizen alongside the existing external
DSL. That means anywhere you can put a manifest, you should be able to
put Ruby code and have it behave equivalently. So, the ‘ssh’ class above
could be put into ‘$modules/ssh/manifests/init.rb’, the apache vhost
type should be placed in ‘$modules/apache/manifests/vhost.rb’, and the
node should probably be in your ‘site.pp’ file.

You can also apply Ruby manifests directly with puppet:

puppet -e mystuff.rb

Note that the Ruby support does not yet cover all of the functionality
in Puppet’s language. For instance, there is not yet support for
overrides or defaults, nor for resource collections. Virtual and
exported resources are done using a separate method:

virtual file("/my/file", :content => "something")

All of the standard functions are also pulled into Ruby and should work
fine — e.g., ‘include’, ‘template’, and ‘require’.

Stored Configuration

Support is now added for using Oracle databases as a back-end for your
stored configuration.

Facts

There are three new facts available in manifests:

$clientcert – the name of the client certificate
$module_name – the name of the current module (see #1545)
$caller_module_name – the name of the calling module (see #1545)

In addition all puppet.conf configuration items are now available as
facts in your manifests. These can be accessed using the structure:

$settings::setting_name

Where setting_name is the name of the configuration option you’d like to
retrieve.

Types and Providers

A new provider for pkg has been added to support Solaris and OpenSolaris
(pkgadd).

A new package provider has been added to support AIX package management.

The augeas type has added the ‘incl’ and ‘lens’ parameters. These
parameters allow loading a file anywhere on the filesystem; using them
also greatly speeds up processing the resource.

Binaries and Configuration

Single Binary

Puppet is now available as a single binary with sub-arguments for the
functions previously provided by the seperate binaries (the existing
binaries remain for backwards compatibility). This includes renaming
several Puppet functions to better fit an overall model.

List of binary changes

puppetmasterd –> puppet master
puppetd –> puppet agent
puppet –> puppet apply
puppetca –> puppet cert
ralsh –> puppet resource
puppetrun –> puppet kick
puppetqd –> puppet queue
filebucket –> puppet filebucket
puppetdoc –> puppet doc
pi –> puppet describe

This also results in a change in the puppet.conf configuration file.
The sections, previously things like [puppetd], now should be renamed to
match the new binary names.  So [puppetd] becomes [agent].  You will be
prompted to do this when you start Puppet with a log message for each
section that needs to be renamed.  This is merely a warning - existing
configuration file will work unchanged.

New options

A new option is available, ca_name, to specify the name to use for the
Certificate Authority certificate. It defaults to the value of the
certname option (see http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/1507).

A new option, dbconnections, is now available that specifies a limit for
the number of database connections made to remote databases (postgreSQL,
MySQL).

A new option, dbport, is now available that specifies the database port
for remote database connections.

Binary changes

The puppetd (or puppet agent) binary now supports the
--detailed-exitcodes option available in the puppet binary.

Certificates cleaned with puppetca (or puppet cert) are now also revoked.

The puppetca (puppet cert) and puppetd (puppet agent) binaries now have
support for certificate fingerprinting and support for specifying digest
algorithms. To display the fingerprint of a client certificate use:

$ puppetd --fingerprint

or

$ puppet agent --fingerprint

To specify a particular digest algorithm use --digest DIGESTNAME.

To fingerprint a certificate with puppetca use:

$ puppetca --fingerprint host.example.com

or

$ puppet cert --fingerprint host.example.com

Also supported is the --digest option.

The puppetdoc binary now documents inheritance between nodes, shows
classes added via the require function and resources added via the
realize function.

Functions

The regsubst function now takes arrays as input (see #2491).

Reports

There is a new report type called http. If you specify:

reports = http

Then the new report processor will make a HTTP POST of the report in
YAML format to a specified URL. By default this URL is the report import
URL for a local Puppet Dashboard installation. You can override this
with the new reporturl setting.

reports = http
reporturl = http://yoururl/post/

ba2a3af  Fix 2239 (step five): introduce new
Puppet::Transaction#stop_processing? flag and associate
d check thereof within the resource evaluation code.  This should allow
for the transaction to bail
out of its processing if it finds that a stop has been requested, based
on the state of Puppet::Appl
ication.stop_requested?.
9cb6841  Fix 2239 (step four): Refactored Puppet::Daemon''s stop/restart
methods to set status flags
appropriately in Puppet::Application, and removed call to now-deprecated
@agent.configure_delayed_re
start.  This should get the restart and stop behavior for daemons and
their agents working nicely wi
th the new global process status interface of Puppet::Application.
82f852a  Fix 2239 (step three): Refactored Puppet::Agent to base
starting/restarting behaviors and p
redicates on new run-status interface of Puppet::Application.
edbe9b6  Fix 2239 (step two): introduce
Puppet::Application.controlled_run method to provide simple
status-restricted execution of a passed in block; this can replace the
process status checks and pro
perly handle delayed restart behavior for Puppet::Agent.
2cf647c  Fix 2239 (step one): introduce global settings represeting
application run state with metho
ds for setting the state and appropriately-named predicates for querying
state, all in the Puppet::A
pplication class itself.  To be used by Puppet::Daemon and Puppet::Agent
and Puppet::Transaction for
 better response to TERM, INT, HUP.

+1 to that!

I''m particularly interested in using hashes and stages.

Any knowledge of known gotchas going from 0.25 manifests would be appreciated,
if available :)

Well the best way to find gotchas is to test the release candidate ...
then you''ll know and you can communicate them to others. :)

James,

Has the -no-daemonize option been changed?  See below:

bash-3.2# puppet master -v -d -no-daemonize

ambiguous option: -no-daemonize

Try ''puppet master --help''

bash-3.2# puppet master --help

grep: /Library/Ruby/Site/1.8/puppet/util/command_line/*: No such file
or
> directory
No help available for puppet master

Is there some way to clean a cert (using puppet cert) without revoking it? 
Something like "puppet cert --clean hostname.domain --no-revoke".

File streaming means the client and server don''t load the whole file
into RAM to send or receive it?

Thanks for all the great work.  Puppet has made my life so much easier.

#4205: impossible to manually import twice the same manifest/module
(yes, I have stuff I never re-written after the autoloader was fully
working back in 0.23.x)
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/4205

#4206: import "path/*" is importing twice the same manifests, which by
vertue of #4205 fails hard (patch sent to puppet-dev)
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/4205

#4207: storeconfigs has a big issue, it wants to store the whole
environment (including full catalog) in the environment column of the
hosts table (patch sent to puppet-dev).
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/4205

Besides those, the puppetmaster part worked fine (I was testing with my
modified puppet-test as a client). I didn''t had time to test the client
part, nor a 0.25.x client to a 2.6.0 master, so YMMV.

afaik, not. But could be a feature request. On the other hand, what''s

Something like "puppet cert --clean hostname.domain --no-revoke".
No. If that''s an issue, the workaround is to remove the file manually.
You can file a feature request for this.

Correct. You can now serve gigabytes files through puppet without
impacting the RAM usage of both the client and the server.

Something like "puppet cert --clean hostname.domain --no-revoke".
There isn''t currently - but happy to take a feature request.

This isn''t my usecase so I don''t care, but since you ask...

Suppose you have machines that:
*) Don''t get any sensitive information through puppet.
*) Are re-imaged often using PXE+preseeding or PXE+kickstart
*) All the computers have names in the form of
"lab-client-*.domainname"

Someone said that in this case you can put "puppetca --clean
lab-client-*.domainname" as a cron job, and put
"lab-client-*.domainname" in autosign.conf.

Again, I don''t do this, so don''t do it for me.

I don''t see that to be a use case in need of a "no-revoke"
option.  Once you
delete the old machine and re-image it with "PXE+preseeding or
PXE+kickstart"
it won''t get the old certkey so it''ll need to be resigned
anyway: to all
practical purposes it''s a new machine, so no benefit on not revoking
the old
one.

Cheers

But I was saying clean out all client certs and private keys (for clients in
this group) off the server once per hour.  Meaning you are running clean
while the client exists and has a valid cert/key combo.

I guess you would always do the same thing with two "rm" statements in
the
cron job instead.
