Table of Contents
Overview
This module provides the puppet_conf task.
Module Description
The puppet_conf task allows you to inspect and change the configuration options in the puppet.conf
file.
Setup
Requirements
This module is compatible with Puppet Enterprise and Puppet Bolt.
-
To run tasks with Puppet Enterprise, PE 2018.1 or later must be installed on the machine from which you are running task commands. Machines receiving task requests must be Puppet agents.
-
To run tasks with Puppet Bolt, Bolt 1.0 or later must be installed on the machine from which you are running task commands. Machines receiving task requests must have SSH or WinRM services enabled.
Usage
To view the available actions and parameters, on the command line, run puppet task show puppet_conf
or see the puppet_conf module page on the Forge.
For a complete list of puppet.conf
options, see the puppet.conf
documentation.
To show help for the task CLI, run puppet task run --help
or bolt task run --help
To run a puppet_conf task, use the task command, specifying the action, section, and setting of the puppet.conf
setting.
- With PE on the command line, run
puppet task run puppet_conf action=<ACTION> section=<SECTION> setting=<SETTING>
. - With Bolt on the command line, run
bolt task run puppet_conf action=<ACTION> section=<SECTION> setting=<SETTING>
.
For example, to check the status of the agent graph setting in puppet.conf
, run:
- With PE, run
puppet task run puppet_conf action=get section=agent setting=graph --nodes neptune
- With Bolt, run
bolt task run puppet_conf action=get section=agent setting=graph --nodes neptune --modulepath ~/modules
To set the value of the agent graph setting in puppet.conf
, specify a value with the set
action:
- With PE, run
puppet task run puppet_conf action=set section=agent setting=graph value=true --nodes neptune
- With Bolt, run
bolt task run puppet_conf action=set section=agent setting=graph value=true --nodes neptune --modulepath ~/modules
You can also run tasks in the PE console. See PE task documentation for complete information.

Quality checks
We run a couple of automated scans to help you assess a module’s quality. Each module is given a score based on how well the author has formatted their code and documentation and select 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.
Malware scan results
The malware detection service on Puppet Forge is an automated process that identifies known malware in module releases before they’re published. It is not intended to replace your own virus scanning solution.
