p4ruby

Overview

This module manages the Perforce Ruby API (p4ruby) on a node.

Requirements

This module does not install Ruby on the target system (although it does ensure that rubygems is installed).

Usage

At its simplest, you can manage the p4ruby installation on your system.

include p4ruby

This will install the p4ruby gem. During installation of the gem, the P4 C++ API (p4api) will be downloaded and installed. If you would like to control which P4API the p4ruby gem uses, you can specify the p4api_dir parameter when declaring the p4ruby class. An example of using both the p4api and p4ruby modules together is given below:

$perforce_dir = '/opt/perforce'
$p4api_dir = "${perforce_dir}/p4api"

class { 'p4api':
  base_perforce_dir => $perforce_dir,
}

class { 'p4ruby':
  p4api_dir => $p4api_dir,
}

Limitations

Currently, only RedHat/CentOS and Ubuntu are supported.
