cacert_fingerprint

This module adds facts which report the SHA256 cacert fingerprint in two formats as follows:

  • cacert_fingerprint - lower case, no colons Eg: 8b59d3a21ddbe40fc9f620dced3f611c70399b320717164f335db211d12a7ef7

  • cacert_fingerprint_colonated - upper case, colon separated pairs Eg: 8B:59:D3:A2:1D:DB:E4:0F:C9:F6:20:DC:ED:3F:61:1C:70:39:9B:32:07:17:16:4F:33:5D:B2:11:D1:2A:7E:F7

This can be of value if your Puppet control repo is deployed to more than one installation of Puppet, with separate CAs on each (eg a primary installation, and a sandpit or development installation). You can then use the cacert_fingerprint fact to determine which installation your code is being consumed on, so you can then put paths into Hiera to override such things as your puppet agent configuration, etc.

Usage

Just have this module installed in the desired Puppet code environment(s).
