Working with the stages in stdlib, I quickly ran into an issue where most of the stages were before the main stage. This made it difficult to declare any resources in a traditional "include" style class while hiding the end user from the stages being associated with other module classes. For example, in class mcollective, a package would be declared in main. However, if mcollective declared class mcollective::service in stage infra_deploy and this was before main, there would be a dependency loop between the package and the service. There appears to be a convention around "chain your stages after main" to avoid the need to create relatively empty shell classes. |

- Types
- Providers
This module is officially curated and provided by Puppet Labs. The modules Puppet Labs writes and distributes will make heavy use of this standard library.
Compatibility
This module is designed to work with Puppet version 2.6 and later. It may be forked if Puppet 2.7 specific features are added. There are currently no plans for a Puppet 0.25 standard library module.
