This module requires functions provided by the Example42 Puppi module (you need it even if you don't use and install Puppi)
For detailed info about the logic and usage patterns of Example42 modules check the DOCS directory on Example42 main modules set.
USAGE - Module's specific parameters
-
Install PuppetDb with local postgresql backend (Note: default credentials with a random password are used)
class { 'puppetdb': db_type => 'postgresql', }
-
Install PuppetDb with postgresql backend and custom credentials
class { 'puppetdb': db_type => 'postgresql', db_host => 'data.example42.com', db_port => '12345', db_name => 'puppetdb', db_user => 'puppetdbuser', db_password => 's0rt0fP4ssW0rd!', }
USAGE - Basic management
-
Install puppetdb with default settings (hsqldb backend)
class { 'puppetdb': }
-
Install a specific version of puppetdb package
class { 'puppetdb': version => '1.0.1', }
-

class { 'puppetdb': disable => true }
-
Remove puppetdb package

Use custom sources for main config file
class { 'puppetdb': source => [ "puppet:///modules/lab42/puppetdb/puppetdb.conf-${hostname}" , "puppet:///modules/lab42/puppetdb/puppetdb.conf" ], }
-
Use custom source directory for the whole configuration dir
class { 'puppetdb': source_dir => 'puppet:///modules/lab42/puppetdb/conf/', source_dir_purge => false, # Set to true to purge any existing file not present in $source_dir }
-
Use custom template for main config file. Note that template and source arguments are alternative.
class { 'puppetdb': template => 'example42/puppetdb/puppetdb.conf.erb', }

class { 'puppetdb': puppi => true, puppi_helper => 'myhelper', }
