4.1 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.

hardening/hardening_stdlib — version 0.1.2 May 16th 2014

Hardening Stdlib (puppet)

Description

Shared functions for hardening modules.

Requirements

  • Puppet; nothing else

Usage

merge_hardening

Try to set a hardening parameter. The user still has the option to override it, which will result in a warning.

Parameters

merge_hardening( $original, $hardening, [ $name_of_parameter ] )

The $name_of_parameter is optional, but highly recommended to know which parameter results in a Warning.

For simple values:

# Only defined by hardening:
# $original_option = undef
# $hardening_option = "off"
# $merged_option = "off"
$merged_option = merge_hardening( $original_option, $hardening_option, "param <name>" )

# User override:
# $original_option = "on"
# $hardening_option = "off"
# $merged_option = "on" (emits a warning)
$merged_option = merge_hardening( $original_option, $hardening_option, "param <name>" )

For maps:

# Only defined by hardening:
# $original_option = { a: "on" }
# $hardening_option = { b: "off" }
# $merged_option = { a: "on", b: "off" }
$merged_option = merge_hardening( $original_option, $hardening_option, "map <name>" )

# User override:
# $original_option = { a: "on", b: "on" }
# $hardening_option = { b: "off" }
# $merged_option = { a: "on", b: "on" } (emits a warning)
$merged_option = merge_hardening( $original_option, $hardening_option, "map <name>" )

getparam

Taken from stdlib 4.2. You don't need to require this version of stdlib, but still get access to this function. See: stdlib v4.2 getparam description
