I am trying to use the same hiera hash to create the mount point and mounts. (Would be nice if mount could create the mount points using 3.1.1) My plan was to define create_mount_points and use create_resources with the same hash, and just though away what I dont use.... maybe there is a better means? Here is the mount class: class fstab::mounts ( $config = undef ) { $defaults = {

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 =

I''m having some issues trying to track down a problem I''m having parsing a simple template, using create_resources and Hiera. Here''s my setup (abridged): ../hieradata/settings.yaml: *global:* * variables:* * env: foo* * * *appSpecific:* * serverName: someServer* ../modules/test/manifests/init.pp: *class test {* * create_resources(test::variables,

Hello I''d love a bit of advice in terms of how I should best go about this. I am creating a bunch of vhosts, their definitions are stored in json (I''m using heira) that json file will be generated from data held on another server. I''m just using the puppetlabs apache module and create_resources to then generate all the vhosts and their directories etc. I''m

Using rspec-puppet should I be able to check for resources created as a result of a create_resources call within a class?

I''m trying to use create_resources to create a series of files with semi-custom content based on a template. This is what I have: foo.conf.erb: Name "<%= name %>" WorkingDir "<%= working_dir %>" ... a bunch of static entries YAML: configs: config1: Name: app1 WorkingDir: /var/app1 config2: Name: app2 WorkingDir: /var/app2

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

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 am trying to add ability to add virtual users to the git://github.com/erwbgy/puppet-system.git module as I really want the ability to use virtual users and then combine that with "User <| group == ''x'' and group == ''y'' |>" way of realizing the users. This is much more flexible than what I can do with this module out of the box. Using the

Hi all, We''ve recently started exploring the role / profile / component module described by Craig Dunn in his blog here: http://www.craigdunn.org/2012/05/239/ and discussed on the list the other day. As I was implementing this for a profile using the apache module, I realized that I could make another refinement to our approach by using

Hi I am using create_resource to create a dir and then mount it. I am using two create_resources and want one to be completed before other. $mount_point = hiera(''test::mount_point'', []) $defaults = { ''ensure'' => ''directory'', } $mountit = hiera(''test::mountit'') create_resources (file, $mount_point, $defaults)

Hi all! I''m trying to setup a puppet module for sudo that will write multiple files with separate data for each file, all dependent on the hiera hierarchy. Here''s the relevant portion of my hiera.yaml: > :hierarchy: > > - "datacenter/app/role/node/%{::clientcert}" > > - "datacenter/app/role/%{::server_role}" > > -

I have these three modules with the following structure: |-- modules | |-- create_resources | | |-- LICENSE | | |-- Modulefile | | |-- README | | |-- lib | | | `-- puppet | | | `-- parser | | | `-- functions | | | `-- create_resources.rb | | |-- spec | | | |-- spec.opts | | | |-- spec_helper.rb | | | `-- unit

Hi folks, Is there a way to test the result of a hiera_hash() lookup in a manifest? I am trying to use hiera to do most of my configuration, like this for example: mysql::grants: ''user1@localhost'': privileges: - select_priv ''user2@localhost'': privileges: - select_priv - insert_priv - lock_tables_priv I have a wrapper

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: -

I''m confused about this... https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib/ I see a lot of functions there that are the same as the ones that come standard with puppet. If I create a module and dump this stuff in there, what happens to the existing stuff? How does puppet know which one to use?

Hi, if possible can someone post a working example please ? I am using hiera => puppet => augeas. cat myserver.yaml --- myserver: "Birthday": ''1'' "Debug": ''5'' The no. of settings will change, so i would like to use a hash here. The hiera lookup works already: >hiera -c /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml -h myserver

I''ve begun using Hiera in combination with Foreman, primarily storing data that is best left in Array/Hash form. I''d like to be able to have a module, in this case BackupPC, query all the Hiera data for each node where the backup directories/databases are stored. Then use all that information on the BackupPC server to generate proper configuration files for each

Hi all, I''d like to specify a base_directory and a list of directories (as variables that may be pulled via hiera later) that will be created under that base directory. base_dir = "/home/base" bars = ["a", "b", "c"] bars will be used to create the folders under base and also part of the information going into building a template so I
