Documentation

bmurt/puppet_agent — version 0.0.4 Aug 18th 2014

puppet_agent

  • Puppet module to manage the puppet.conf via Puppet for a node.
  • Supports Puppet Enterprise and Puppet Open Source editions

Author

Examples

class { '::puppet_agent': puppetmaster => 'puppet.contoso.com', install_type => 'open_source', }

At a minimum, the puppetmaster parameter must be configured. The install_type defaults to 'enterprise' and can also have the 'open_source' value. All other values will default to Puppet Enterprise or Open Source defaults.

The environment value is configured based on the environment used upon the last agent checkin. To change the environment, checkin using a different environment. For example after testing a feature release, checkin with production:

puppet agent --test --environment production

This minimal class can be added to any role/profile or node definition.
