2.0 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.

puppet-util

My Standard Library for Puppet Modules.

This module provides a "standard library" of resources for developing Puppet Modules. This modules will include the following additions to Puppet:

  • chmod
  • chown
  • compress
  • extract

Functions

chmod

Change the permission of file or directory.

Examples:

util::chmod {'Changing permission for some file':
    file => '/some/file.txt',
    mode => 0644,
}
util::chmod {'Changing permission for some directory':
    file => '/root',
    mode => 0700,
}
util::chmod {'Changing permission for some directory recursively':
    file      => '/root',
    mode      => 0700,
    recursive => true, # default is "false"
}

chown

Change the owner of file or directory.

Examples:

util::chown {'Changing owner for some file':
    file => '/root/file.txt',
    user => 'root',
}
util::chown {'Changing owner for some directory':
    file  => '/srv',
    user  => 'root',
    group => 'admin',
}
util::chown {'Changing owner for some directory recursively':
    file      => '/root',
    user      => 'root',
    group     => 'admin',
    recursive => true,
}

compress

Compres an file or directory.

The type of compression is determined for the file extension.

Examples of compressing files:

util::compress {'Compressing some file with zip utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell',
    to   => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.zip',
}
util::compress {'Compressing some file with gzip utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell',
    to   => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.gz',
}
util::compress {'Compressing some file with bzip2 utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell',
    to   => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.bz2',
}

Examples of compressing directories:

util::compress {'Compressing some directory with zip utility':
    from => '/etc/vim',
    to   => '/root/vim.zip',
}
util::compress {'Compressing some directory with gzip utility':
    from => '/etc/vim',
    to   => '/root/vim.tar.gz',
}
util::compress {'Compressing some directory with bzip2 utility':
    from => '/etc/vim',
    to   => '/root/vim.tar.bz2',
}

extract

Extract an compressed file.

The type of extraction is determined for the file extension.

Examples of extracting files:

util::extract {'extracting some file with zip utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.zip',
    to   => '/root',
}
util::extract {'extracting some file with gzip utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.gz',
    to   => '/root',
}
util::extract {'extracting some file with bzip2 utility':
    from => '/tmp/vagrant-shell.bz2',
    to   => '/root',
}

Examples of extracting directories:

util::extract {'Extracting some directory with zip utility':
    from => '/root/vim.zip',
    to   => '/tmp',
}
util::extract {'Extracting some directory with gzip utility':
    from => '/root/vim.tar.gz',
    to   => '/tmp',
}
util::extract {'Extracting some directory with bzip2 utility':
    from => '/root/vim.tar.bz2',
    to   => '/tmp',
}
