This work adds a new mysql::globals class which contains a hash used to
build my.cnf from. It's used to share this data across multiple classes
so that the client and server can share this data.
End users can modify content in my.cnf by including mysql::globals and
passing in override_options as a hash that looks like:
override_options = { 'mysqld' => { 'max_connections' => '120' } }
This completely replaces the mess of parameters that existed in the main
mysql class before.
Completely refactor mysql::server and rework the API. This changes
ordering, changes from execs{} to mysql_user for the root password,
removes some functionality (like the etc_root_password), and generally
makes some tough decisions about how mysql::server should be built.
This is a major change to the module and would be released as a new
version.
* Add self.instances to database and database_user for puppet resource.
* Update database provider to use flush method.
* Update module to conform to puppet-lint recommendations.
* Cleanup some unecessary logic in mysql::db define type.
* Move mysql_restart to config class.
* Use class to class dependency instead of resource dependency.
* Change appropriate rspec-puppet tests.
* Add fixtures directory to simplify testing.
* Update raketask and spec_helper to reflect fixture changes.
* Update mysql_password function to support validation.
* Move client installation to a separate class.
* Update documentation and readme.
