##Overview
This is the download_uncompress module. It allows to download and uncompress a software distribution in a specified directory.
##Module Description
The module provides a utility define that takes care to download and uncompress a software distribution in a specified directory. The software distribution can be uncompressed with unzip or untar or leaved as it is. The operations are performed only if the expected file or folder does not yet exists.
##Setup
###What download_uncompress affects
The module installs the unzip
package if it is not installed using stdlib ensure_packages
type.
The module performs a wget from the specified url into the /tmp
directory and possibly unzip the downloaded file into the destination folder. The base_url from which to download can be provided as a parameter and defaults to the value of the key distributions_base_url
defined in hiera.
###Setup Requirements
This modules requires the following other modules to be installed:
-
puppetlabs/stdlib
to use the
ensure_packages
resource.
###Beginning with download_uncompress
To download and unzip SoftwareXY.zip from the base url specified by the key distributions_base_url
defined in hiera, it is possible to use a declaration as the following:
download_uncompress {'dwnl_inst_swxy':
download_base_url => "http://jee.invallee.it/dist",
distribution_name => "SoftwareXY.zip"
dest_folder => '/tmp',
creates => "/tmp/SXYInstallFolder",
uncompress => 'tar.gz',
}
##Usage
It is convenient to specify via hiera the default bae url to be used to download software distributions; typically it would be some kind of internal repository where software binary packages are made available. An example hiera (JSON) declaration would be as follows:
{
"distributions_base_url" : "http://site.x.y/dist"
}
Then, a typical declaration would be:
download_uncompress { 'install_jboss_5':
distribution_name => 'jboss-5.1.0.GA-jdk6.zip',
dest_folder => '/opt',
creates => '/opt/jboss-5.1.0.GA',
uncompress => 'zip',
user => jboss,
group => jboss,
}
Alternatively, the base url can be given as a parameter:
download_uncompress { "install_jboss-4.2.3.GA":
download_base_url => "http://sourceforge.net/projects/jboss/files/JBoss",
distribution_name => "JBoss-4.2.3.GA/jboss-4.2.3-jdk6.zip/download",
dest_folder => "/opt",
creates => "/opt/jboss-4.2.3.GA",
uncompress => 'zip',
user => jboss,
group => jboss,
}
Or, the full url can be specified in one place:
download_uncompress { "install_jboss-4.2.3.GA":
distribution_name => "http://sourceforge.nt/projects/jboss/files/JBoss/JBoss-4.2.3.GA/jboss-4.2.3-jdk6.zip/download",
dest_folder => "/opt",
creates => "/opt/jboss-4.2.3.GA",
uncompress => 'zip',
user => jboss,
group => jboss,
}
Another example, to put in place a JBoss library (no uncompression in this case):
download_uncompress { "${postgresqlModulePath}/postgresql-9.1-903.jdbc4.jar":
distribution_name => 'lib/postgresql-9.1-903.jdbc4.jar',
dest_folder => "${postgresqlModulePath}",
creates => "${postgresqlModulePath}/postgresql-9.1-903.jdbc4.jar",
user => jboss,
group => jboss,
}

####Parameters
#####download_base_url
Base URL from which to download.

is ignored.
#####dest_folder
Destination folder where to unzip (or possibly only download) the distribution.
#####creates
Folder created after downloading and possibly unzipping, useful to make the resource type idempotent.
#####uncompress
Specify the type of compression used by the distribution or if no uncompression is needed.
Possible values are zip
, tar.gz
, jar
. Any other value is interpreted as no uncompression needed.
Defaults to false
.

Defaults to the empty string.
##Limitations
At the moment the module targets only OpenJDK on Ubuntu platforms. Specifically, it is tested only on Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04, and 14.04 distributions, although probably it will work also on more recent versions.

##2017-09-20 - Release - 1.3.2 ###Summary Added option to choose whether to install unzip or not. Note that the install_unzip parameter is supported both in Puppet 3 and 4/5.
##2016-07-12 - Release - 1.3.1 ###Summary Added Debian, RedHat and CentOS distributions as supported. Removed restriction on specific Ubuntu versions.
##2016-07-12 - Release - 1.3.0 ###Summary Added capability to uncompress jar file by using the unzip command. Added -o option to unzip in order to overwrite existing files. Added optional parameter to allow passing specific options to the wget command.
##2015-08-25 - Release - 1.2.0 ###Summary Introduces dependency from stdlib in order to make use of ensure_packages to ensure package unzip is installed. Furthermore, specifies the path where to search for the commands used (no more error in case they are not set as global defaults in the site.pp).
##2015-06-8 - Release - 1.1.1
###Summary
Fix the fact the hiera key distributions_base_url
is optional when download_base_url
is specified or distribution_name
begins with http://
.
A Puppet error is raised if none of these conditions is satisfied.
