5.0 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

Apache httpd setup

Module Description

apache httpd and apache modules management

Setup

What apache affects

  • installs httpd package
  • optionally, manages httpd service
  • puppet managed directories (purges unmanaged files):
    • ${apache_confdir}/conf.d
    • ${apache_confdir}/conf.d/sites
    • ${apache_confdir}/ssl

Beginning with apache

Basic setup:

class { 'apache': }

apache::vhost {'default':
  defaultvh=>true,
  documentroot => '/var/www/void',
}

apache::vhost {'et2blog':
  documentroot => '/var/www/et2blog',
}

Usage

In this section we have several usage examples, most were used to test module's features or acceptance testing checks (spec/acceptance/base*_spec.rb)

general Options

aliasmatch, scriptalias, rewrites and directory directives

apache::vhost {'testing.lol':
        order => '77',
        serveradmin => 'root@lolcathost.lol',
        serveralias => [ '1.testing.lol', '2.testing.lol' ],
        documentroot => '/var/www/testing/',
        options => [ 'Indexes', 'FollowSymLinks', 'MultiViews' ],
        rewrites => [
          'RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^testing\.lol',
          'RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://www\.testing\.lol/$1 [R=301,L]'
          ],
        aliasmatch => { 'RUC/lol' => '/var/www/testing/hc.php',
                        '(.*)' => '/var/www/testing/cc.php'},
        scriptalias => { '/cgi-bin/' => '"/var/www/testing/cgi-bin/"' },
        directoryindex => [ 'index.php', 'lolindex.php', 'lol.html' ],
}

apache::directory {'testing.lol':
                      vhost_order      => '77',
                      directory       => '/var/www/testing/cgi-bin/',
                      options          => [ '+ExecCGI', '-Includes' ],
                      allowoverride    => 'None',
}

redirect

apache::vhost {'et2blog':
  documentroot => '/var/www/et2blog',
}

apache::redirect { 'et2blog':
  path => '/',
  url => 'http://systemadmin.es/',
}

proxypass

class { 'apache::mod::proxy': }
class { 'apache::mod::proxyajp': }
class { 'apache::mod::proxybalancer': }

apache::mod::proxy::balancer { 'test':
  members =>  { 'ajp://app1.example.com:8009' => undef,
                'ajp://app2.example.com:8009' => undef,
              }
}

apache::mod::proxy::proxypass { '/lol':
  destination => 'balancer://test',
  servername => 'et2blog',

}

custom logformats

we can add custom log formats using logformats hash, for example:

class { 'apache':
  server_admin=> 'webmaster@localhost',
  maxclients=> '150',
  maxrequestsperchild=>'1000',
  customlog_type=>'vhost_combined',
  logformats => {
      'vhost_combined' =>
        '%v:%p %h %l %u %t \\"%r\\" %>s %O \\"%{Referer}i\\" \\"%{User-Agent}i\\"'
        },
  add_defult_logformats=>true,
}

Load custom module

apache::module { 'asis_module':
  sofile => 'modules/mod_asis.so',
}

server-status

server-status on a custom vhost with restricted IPs

apache::vhost {'default':
  defaultvh => true,
  documentroot => '/var/www/void',
}

apache::vhost {'et2blog':
  documentroot => '/var/www/et2blog',
}

apache::serverstatus {'et2blog':}

apache::vhost {'systemadmin.es':
  order        => '10',
  port         => '81',
  documentroot => '/var/www/systemadmin',
}

apache::serverstatus {'systemadmin.es':
  order     => '10',
  port      => '81',
  allowedip => ['1.1.1.1','2.2.2.2','4.4.4.4 5.5.5.5','127.','::1'],
}

mod_php

class { 'apache': }

apache::vhost {'default':
  defaultvh=>true,
  documentroot => '/var/www/void',
}

class { 'apache::mod::php': }

addtype

apache::addtype { '.sinep':
  mediatype => 'application/sinep',
}

SSL

SSL setup using yaml

classes:
  - apache
apache::listen:
  - 80
  - 443
apache::ssl: true
apachecerts:
  systemadmin:
    cert_source: puppet:///customers/systemadmin/star_systemadmin_net.crt
    pk_source: puppet:///customers/systemadmin/star_systemadmin_net.key
    intermediate_source: puppet:///customers/systemadmin/star_systemadmin_net.intermediate
apachevhosts:
  systemadmin:
    documentroot: /var/www/systemadmin
  systemadmin_ssl:
    documentroot: /var/www/systemadmin
    port: 443
    certname: systemadmin

SSL without intermediate certificate

If we don't have a intermediate certificate, we can disable it using use_intermediate (intended for testing only)

apache::vhost {'et2blog_ssl':
  documentroot => '/var/www/et2blog',
  port => 443,
  certname => 'cert_et2blog_ssl',
  use_intermediate => false,
}

HSTS

apache::vhost {'et2blog':
  documentroot            => '/var/www/et2blog',
  hsts                    => true,
  hsts_include_subdomains => true,
}

mod_nss

# vhost for ZnVja3RoYXRiaXRjaAo.com

apache::vhost {'ZnVja3RoYXRiaXRjaAo.com':
  port         => '443',
  documentroot => '/var/www/void',
}

# generate CSR

apache::nss::csr { 'test2':
  cn => 'ZnVja3RoYXRiaXRjaAo.com',
  organization => 'systemadmin.es',
  organization_unit => 'shitty apache modules team',
  locality => 'barcelona',
  state => 'barcelona',
  country => 'RC', # Republica Catalana
}

# import intermediate

apache::nss::intermediate { 'intermediate':
  intermediate_source => 'puppet:///certs/intermediate.crt',
}

# import actual certificate

apache::nss::cert { 'ZnVja3RoYXRiaXRjaAo':
  intermediate_source => 'puppet:///certs/cert.crt',
}

# enable mod_nss for this vhost

apache::nss {'ZnVja3RoYXRiaXRjaAo.com':
  port      => '443',
}

Sorry page

every vhost created using this module have an alternative vhost to disable it (HTTP 503)

enable/disable sorry page

to enable or disable the sorry page for a given site we just need to flip site_running

apache::vhost {'systemadmin.es':
  order        => '10',
  port         => '81',
  documentroot => '/var/www/systemadmin',
  site_running => false,
}

Custom sorry page

custom_sorrypage hash must contain both variables (path and errordocument)

apache::vhost {'systemadmin.es':
  order        => '10',
  port         => '81',
  documentroot => '/var/www/systemadmin',
  custom_sorrypage => { 'path': '/var/www/systemadmin/maintenance',
                        'errordocument': 'maintenance.html',
  }
}

includes

apache::include_conf { '/etc:
  files => [ 'demo.conf' ],
}

mod_headers

apache::header

apache::vhost {'et2blog':
  documentroot => '/var/www/et2blog',
}

apache::header { 'et2blog':
  header_name => 'X-Joke',
  header_value => 'no hay MAC que por ARP no venga',
  condition => 'always',
}

this adds the following directive:

Header onsuccess set X-Joke "no hay MAC que por ARP no venga"

mod_proxy

  - apache
  - apache::mod::expires

    port: 7790
  '/host-manager':
    destination: '!'
    servername: pspstores.systemadmin.es
    port: 7790

Exclude healthcheck

apache::vhost {'systemadmin.es':
  order        => '10',
  port         => '81',
  documentroot => '/var/www/systemadmin',
  custom_sorrypage => { 'path': '/var/www/systemadmin/maintenance',
                        'errordocument': 'maintenance.html',
                        'healthcheck': 'healthcheck/healthcheck.html',
  }
}
