4.3 quality score

We run a couple of automated
scans to help you access a
module's quality. Each module is
given a score based on how well
the author has formatted their
code and documentation and
modules are also checked for
malware using VirusTotal.

Please note, the information below
is for guidance only and neither of
these methods should be considered
an endorsement by Puppet.

Overview

Build Status

A Puppet module for managing deployments of Patchwork - the web-based patch tracking system

Usage

To use this module you can either directly include it in your module tree, or add the following to your Puppetfile:

  mod 'bramwelt-patchwork'

A node should then be assigned the relevant patchwork classes.

  class { 'patchwork':
    version => 'v1.0.0'
  }
  class { 'patchwork::config':
    secret_key    => 'CHANGEME',
    allowed_hosts => ['localhost', '.example.com']
  }

A secret key can be generated with the following Linux command:

  $ pwgen -sync 50 1 | tr -d "'\""

If you're using Hiera, a basic yaml configuration might look like:

  patchwork::version: 'v1.0.0'
  patchwork::config::secret_key: 'CHANGEME'
  patchwork::config::allowed_hosts:
     - 'localhost'
     - '.example.com'

After Packwork has been installed and configured, it is up to you to manage the application deployment. This includes:

  • Initializing / Migrating the Database: ./manage.py migrate --noinput
  • Loading fixtures ./manage.py loaddata default_tags default_states
  • Collecting Static files: ./manage.py collectstatic
  • Creating admin(s)/superuser(s): ./manage.py createsuperuser

Reference

patchwork

install_dir

The directory where patchwork should be installed.

Default: '/opt/patchwork'

virtualenv_dir

The directory where the virtualenv should reside.

Default: '/opt/patchwork/venv'

version

Version of patchwork to be installed.

If 'latest' is specified, the installation will track the tip of the patchwork 'master' branch, otherwise the repo will be ensured 'present' overwriting any local changes that take place.

Default: 'master'

source_repo

git repo URL for cloning patchwork. Useful for installing your own fork / patched version of patchwork.

Default: 'git://github.com/getpatchwork/patchwork'

user

User that owns patchwork files and runs the application.

Default 'patchwork'

group

Group that has access to patchwork files.

Default: 'patchwork'

manage_git

Installs git. Git is required for cloning patchwork.

Default: true

manage_python

Installs python, python development libraries, pip, and virtualenv. Required for creating the patchwork virtualenv and installing patchwork's dependencies.

Default: true

manage_database

Installs a local MySQL server.

Default: true

database_name

The name of the patchwork database.

Default: 'patchwork'

database_host

Database hostname of the client should connect to.

Databases created either through collect_exported or manage_database use $::ipaddress for the host.

Default: 'localhost'

database_user

The username for connection to the database.

Default: 'patchwork'

database_pass

The password associated with the database username.

Default: 'patchwork'

database_tag

Exported resource tag to for collecting the database resource onto a database server.

Default: 'mysql-patchwork'

uwsgi_overrides

Items in the hash will replace the defaults listed in uwsgi_options of the params class.

patchwork::params::uwsgi_options is defined as:

{
  virtualenv  => '/opt/patchwork/venv',
  chdir       => '/opt/patchwork',
  static-map  => '/static=/opt/patchwork/htdocs',
  logto       => '/var/log/patchwork/uwsgi.log',
  master      => true,
  http-socket => ':9000',
  wsgi-file   => 'patchwork.wsgi',
  processes   => 4,
  threads     => 2,
}

Default: {}

collect_exported

Changes database definition from a regular resource to an exported resource and allows for creating the database on another server. Also see: database_tag

Default: false

cron_minutes

Patchwork uses a cron script to clean up expired registrations, and send notifications of patch changes (for projects with this enabled). This setting defines the number of minutes between patchwork cron job runs.

There is no need to modify notification_delay since setting cron_minutes will also set patchwork::config::notification_delay.

Default: 10

patchwork::config

Manages the Django settings.py file. Most parameter are passed directly through and interpreted as Python. Because settings.py may contain sensitive information, show_diff is disabled for the file.

secret_key

A secret key for a particular Django installation. This is used to provide cryptographic signing, and should be set to a unique, unpredictable value.

See: SECRET_KEY

Default: undef

time_zone

A string representing the time zone for this installation.

See: TIME_ZONE

Default: 'Etc/UTC'

language_code

A string representing the language code for this installation.

See: LANGUAGE_CODE

Default: 'en_US'

patches_per_page

Number of patches listed on each page of a project's patch listing.

Default: '100'

force_https_links

Set to True to always generate https:// links instead of guessing the scheme based on current access. This is useful if SSL protocol is terminated upstream of the server (e.g. at the load balancer)

Default: 'False'

from_email

Sets the email address patch notifications, error messages, and validation emails come from.

See:

Default: 'Patchwork <patchwork@patchwork.example.com>'

admins

{
  'Django Admin' => 'admin@example.com',
}

See: ADMINS

Default: {}

allowed_hosts

A list of strings representing the host/domain names that this Django site can serve.

See: ALLOWED_HOSTS

Default: []

notification_delay

This should be set to the same as cron_minutes. Number of minutes patchwork should send Email notifications.

Default: 10 - Set by cron_minutes

enable_xmlrpc

Set to True to enable the Patchwork XML-RPC interface. This is needed for pwclient usage.

Default: 'False'

cache_backend

The caching backend to use. Ex:

  • 'django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache'
  • 'django.core.cache.backends.memcached.MemcachedCache'

See: BACKEND

Default: 'django.core.cache.backends.locmem.LocMemCache'

cache_location

A list of strings providing the locations that implement the cache_backend.

See: LOCATION

Default: []

cache_timeout

A string of either 'None' or a positivive integer respresenting the TTL of entires. A value of 'None' means cache entries will not expire.

Default: 300

cache_options

Set to True to enable the Patchwork XML-RPC interface. This is needed for pwclient usage.

See: OPTIONS

Default: {}

patchwork::selinux

Manages an optional selinux module for Patchwork. Expects the class ::selinux::base to exist. This class is provided by the camptocamp/selinux module and can be installed by adding:

  mod 'camptocamp-selinux'

to Puppetfile, or running:

puppet module install camptocamp-selinux

module_source

Location of a patchwork selinux module to override the one provided by puppet.

Default: puppet:///module/patchwork/mypatchwork.te
