Overview

This module allows to manage ecryptfs mounts as puppet types. Passphrase for encryption should be stored in a file and secured separately.

Mounts are NOT persisted across reboots.

Usage

Use ecryptfs::mount type to define encrypted mounts:

ecryptfs::mount { 'encrypted JENKINS_HOME':
  source_dir      => '/mnt/ebs/jenkins',
  dest_dir        => '/var/lib/jenkins',
  passphrase_file => '/dev/shm/.jenkins_home_ecryptfs'
}

This will install ecryptfs-utils and try to mount /mnt/ebs/jenkins to /var/lib/jenkins using a passphrase stored in plaintext in a file /dev/shm/.jenkins_home_ecryptfs. Please note that a passphrase file should be created by you -- either by puppet or by any other means. Same goes for a source and destination directory. Please see an example in manifests/vagrant.pp.

If you need to define a resource which makes sure that an encrypted mount is UNMOUNTED upon puppet run, set ensure => unmounted leaving all the other parameters in place.

Limitations

This module was tested on CentOS 6.x so far.
