puppet-jdk_oracle

Puppet module to install a JDK from the RPM binary distribution from oracle using wget. Based on the https://github.com/tylerwalts/puppet-jdk_oracle this module removed support for JDK6 and the tgz installer.

Source: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

Note: By using this module you will automatically accept the Oracle agreement to download Java.

This module will work on Redhat family of OSs, and will use wget with a cookie to automatically grab the RPM installer from Oracle.

This approach was inspired by: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10268583/how-to-automate-download-and-instalation-of-java-jdk-on-linux
