Description

The apply_class module provides a utility plan for applying a Puppet class to a target node, and reviewing the output cleanly.

Usage

If working with a Bolt project containing a Puppetfile (such as a control-repo), start by deploying all the referenced modules into the project directory.

bolt puppetfile install -v

Then, use the apply_class plan to compile a catalog for the target 

bolt plan run apply_class --target=mynode.example.com classname=apply_class::test
