similar to: params pattern when writing modules

Hi, My dilemma is how should I write my module to be "next-gen" ? Not from a code point of view but from a design/layout point of view. We wrote our modules for 2.6.x like every beginner would have done: write everything in init.pp. But now, the fashion is to use parameterized classes and Hiera which we will use with puppet 2.7.x. I mainly followed/watched what Example42 was doing.

Hi, I am working on some tools that read and write pp files, and I wonder if there are some pp files available somewhere that can be used to test a parser.

Hi all, I want to do some code reuse, and modules seem overkill. Is it possible to have something like this? A file called myuser.pp class myuser { user {...} file {...} ... } Then in site.pp have this: node ''foo.example.com'' { include myuser .. other things .. } node ''bar.example.com'' { include myuser .. other things .. } When I try this,

I am running puppet 3.1.1 and have a site.pp which roughly looks like this site.pp: node basenode { include common } node ''server1'' inherits basenode { include role::appserver } node ''server2'' inherits basenode { include role::webserver } And my common module includes lots of different types of classes for creating base directories, adding in

I''m new to puppet and working my way through the documentation. I''m struggling with the puppet labs module repo. I''ve toyed with numerous automation and configuration methodologies over the decades. Perhaps I''m seeing puppet wrong, Compared with CFEngine there is a a lot I like, but I''m not sure why I''m still having to re-invent the

Hi, I am new to the job and forum. I installed puppet and puppetmaster and set up my first dependencies acording to a manual that we have here in our company. Everything works fine and I can set up new nodes with several modules to choose from.

Hello fellow community members! I just joined you in order to find an information about how to start using Puppet... Currently we use cfengine for our legacy system containing several OS platforms, including physical and virtual servers. For fresh new hardware and OS versions we decided to go with Puppet due to it''s growing popularity (wow, 4082 members of this group only!).

I am trying to import a hash definition from a separate file but this fails whereas including the text verbatim in the original manifest works fine: class monitor ($master, $interface) { # import "masters.pp" $sensor_rule_categories = { ''dmzo'' => [scan,finger,ftp,telnet,rpc,rservices,ddos,dns,tftp,web- coldfusion,misc,web-php,x11,attack-responses,

So I was looking at the type reference, and noticed that for a lot of the types, no namevar was listed. When I checked the types in the code, for each of those omissions, the namevar was simply "name". Now, it might be self evident that this is the case, but a little documentation couldn''t hurt, If not in each type, at least in the section where it describes what namevars

Hi There, I am kind of lost, understood something wrong. I have written a module. Now how can I test this module? Do I need to copy it to agent or server?

Hi, I''m learning puppet as that is what they use at my current work, though that could change... Question 1: Last place of work, we wrote our own perl based system which was extremely simple and concise to drive - eg to distribute a file, we would put it in: <nfsdir>/noarch/dist/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf/ # which means create a file /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf on the
