I''ve been reading the Docs on this, and its not very clear. I want to have a parameterized class that takes arrays and objects as parameters. I''m using puppet 2.6.16. I define a hostclass like this: hostclass :test, :arguments => { :param1 => "blah" } do end I call from Puppet DSL: class {"test": } I get this as an error: err: Could not

Howdy: I need some help please to get hiera configuration data derived from YAML, thru puppet. I have studied Internet search results and puppet documentation on create_resources and custom defines but need a little help along. I can print out the YAML from variables, arrays, and, finally, hashes too from a puppet manifest. One thing that is stumping me is how to access from the custom define

I''m finding the way to import a file or a class stored in string in ruby manifest. I have tried following code to parse the class having packages and services. pp = Puppet::Parser::Parser.new("development") pp.string = "class webhttpd{package { ''httpd'': ensure => installed, } service { ''httpd'': ensure => running, enable =>

Does anyone have some examples of using this create_resources function, https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-create_resources, ? Based on the README example I can''t figure out exactly how to change from using defines to using this function. Maybe I misunderstand the purpose of create_resources...is it to replace defines, or is it to allow ENCs (for example) to use a define? Below

I have this: class foo::foobar ($version) { } which is called like this: class facility::sanjose inherits facility::common { class { foo::foobar: version => "1.3.13" } } puppet complains with this on the client: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find parent resource type ''facility::sanjose'' of type hostclass in

Is there a way to get a list of all the classes available from the puppet master? I have 2 goals for this - one is documentation in a human readable form, and the other is potentially importing that data into dashboard. I did find some info on the rest API (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_api.html#resource-types ) but I can''t make any sense of the output from it. Thanks.

Let''s say I have a define in class ''foo'' called ''foo::bar'': define foo::bar ($var1, $var2) { ... } Then I have a ruby hostclass hostclass :foo do ... } I see I can successfully set the parameters by doing: environment.known_resource_types.definitions[''foo::bar''].set_arguments :var1 => ''val1'', :var2 =>

I''m trying to extend the standard ''user'' type to add maintenance of some of the contents of a user''s home directory, and I''m trying to avoid creating an entirely new custom type if I can. The approach I''m taking is to create a site::user defined type which in turns calls the standard user type. I''m having a problem figuring out

Welcome back again to the Puppet release cycle with the long-awaited eleventy times better RC2 release. The 2.6.0 release is a major feature release and includes a huge variety of new features, fixes, updates and enhancements.

Hi all, With the goal of making my code a little more DRY, I am trying to define resource parameters in an array of hashes, and then create defined resources from these array items. I am having trouble figuring out the syntax for accessing the hash values for the hash currently being worked on ("self?"). Here''s the code to make it clear: ##### Configuration arguments

Is the puppet dsl a complete Turing capable language? As I understand it, the chain is dsl -> compiled thing -> actions. What language is the compiled thing in?

Howdy. I feel like I am missing something really simply with regards to the way that Puppet works and I am wondering if someone can point me in the write direction. I have written a class that downloads, uncompresses, compiles, and installs Python from source. So far so good. The problem is that it only needs to do this once, when Python is not already in place (or some other custom

I''m trying to create a directory structure from 2 arrays. First array is the "outter", second is the "inner". For each "outter", I''d like to loop through each "inner". Below is sort of what I''m trying to do. In the real world, the $sys_name and $mounts vars will be parsed from yaml and will be dynamic. In the example I''ve

Hi, I have a problem with running puppet with hiera based data. I am trying to cleanup user accounts on a range of servers (to have the same uid/gid). When I create existing account but with different uid/gid it doesn''t change files group ownership so I need to run a script which cleanups after cleanup ;-) I use the following code: --- :backends: - yaml :hierarchy: -

Hello, I''m trying to come up with a generic wrapper class for use with hiera so that I can have a service that is completely managed and configured via hiera and its own puppet module to be notified by Puppet of changes to a file or other resource managed by a different class/module. The example I''m using here is the management of /etc/security/limits.conf for a service account

Hi all, I''m interested pushing my user list out of my users manifest and into Hiera. Unfortunately I haven''t been able to get it to work the way I thought it would. The error suggests that perhaps create_resources cannot create virtual resources, but the docs I''ve read so far don''t address it. The class (in init.pp): class users { $system_users =
