Documentation

puppetfinland/urlwatch — version 0.2.2 May 18th 2018

urlwatch

A Puppet module for managing urlwatch and urlwatch cronjobs. This module also supports urlwatch's built-in filtering features (hooks.py).

Module usage

Example using Hiera: monitor Trac WikiStart and RecentChanges pages for edits:

classes:
    - urlwatch

urlwatch::userconfigs:
    john:
        hour: '*'
        minute: '20'
        urls:
            trac_wikistart:
                url: 'https://trac.example.org/openvpn/wiki/WikiStart'
                filter: '[0-9]* (year|month|week|day|hour|minute|second)s{0,1} ago'
            trac_recentchanges:
                url: 'https://trac.example.org/openvpn/wiki/RecentChanges'
                filter: '[0-9]* (year|month|week|day|hour|minute|second)s{0,1} ago'

If you want the email to user 'john' to go to a public address, you can use the puppetfinland/postfix module:

classes:
    - postfix

postfix::mailaliases:
    john:
        recipient: 'john@example.org'

For details please refer to init.pp and userconfig.pp.

If you want to use the cron functionality in this module you probably want to set up some mail aliases. One way to do this is to use ::postfix::mailaliases hash parameter in the Puppet-Finland postfix module.
