You might find this define useful (
https://github.com/example42/puppet-modules/blob/master/common/manifests/defines/netinstall.pp
):
define netinstall (
$url,
$extracted_dir,
$destination_dir,
$owner = "root",
$group = "root",
$work_dir = "/var/tmp",
$extract_command = "tar -zxvf",
$preextract_command = "",
$postextract_command = ""
# $postextract_command = "./configure ; make ; make install"
) {
$source_filename = urlfilename($url)
if $preextract_command {
exec {
"PreExtract $source_filename":
command => $preextract_command,
before => Exec["Extract $source_filename"],
refreshonly => true,
}
}
exec {
"Retrieve $url":
cwd => "$work_dir",
command => "wget $url",
creates => "$work_dir/$source_filename",
timeout => 3600,
}
exec {
"Extract $source_filename":
command => "mkdir -p $destination_dir ; cd $destination_dir
; $extract_command $work_dir/$source_filename",
unless => "find $destination_dir | grep
$extracted_dir",
require => Exec["Retrieve $url"],
}
if $postextract_command {
exec {
"PostExtract $source_filename":
command => $postextract_command,
cwd => "$destination_dir/$extracted_dir",
subscribe => Exec["Extract $source_filename"],
refreshonly => true,
timeout => 3600,
require => Exec["Retrieve $url"],
}
}
}

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: how to write classes to install package from source
Thanks for the suggestions, they are going to be merged. That''s a define I did various years ago that actually has been useful in various cases (I do agree that it''s better to use packages, but sometimes this is the quickest and saner approach).
