What is it?
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
A Puppet module that can construct files from fragments.
|
|
|
|
Please see the comments in the various .pp files for details
|
|
as well as posts on my blog at http://www.devco.net/
|
|
|
|
Released under the Apache 2.0 licence
|
|
|
|
Usage:
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
If you wanted a /etc/motd file that listed all the major modules
|
|
on the machine. And that would be maintained automatically even
|
|
if you just remove the include lines for other modules you could
|
|
use code like below, a sample /etc/motd would be:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
Puppet modules on this server:
|
|
|
|
-- Apache
|
|
-- MySQL
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
Local sysadmins can also append to the file by just editing /etc/motd.local
|
|
their changes will be incorporated into the puppet managed motd.
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
# class to setup basic motd, include on all nodes
|
|
class motd {
|
|
concat{"/etc/motd":
|
|
owner => root,
|
|
group => root,
|
|
mode => 644
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
concat::fragment{"motd_header":
|
|
content => "\nPuppet modules on this server:\n\n",
|
|
order => 1,
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# local users on the machine can append to motd by just creating
|
|
# /etc/motd.local
|
|
concat::fragment{"motd_local":
|
|
ensure => "/etc/motd.local",
|
|
order => 15
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# used by other modules to register themselves in the motd
|
|
define motd::register($content="", $order=10) {
|
|
if $content == "" {
|
|
$body = $name
|
|
} else {
|
|
$body = $content
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
concat::fragment{"motd_fragment_$name":
|
|
target => "/etc/motd",
|
|
content => " -- $body\n"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
# a sample apache module
|
|
class apache {
|
|
include apache::install, apache::config, apache::service
|
|
|
|
motd::register{"Apache": }
|
|
}
|
|
</pre>

Known Issues:
|
|
-------------
|
|
* In 0.24.8 you will see inintended notifies, if you build a file
|
|
in a run, the next run will also see it as changed. This is due
|
|
to how 0.24.8 does the purging of unhandled files, this is improved
|
|
in 0.25.x and we cannot work around it in our code.

|
* Provided 0.24.8 support, shell warnings and empty file creation support.

|
|
**Chad Netzer**
|
|
|
|
* Various patches to improve safety of file operations
|
|
* Symlink support
|
|
|
|
**David Schmitt**
|
|
|
|
* Patch to remove hard coded paths relying on OS path
|
|
* Patch to use file{} to copy the resulting file to the final destination. This means Puppet client will show diffs and that hopefully we can change file ownerships now
