      tls_key_file   => '/mypath/examplekey.pem',
  }

Reference

This section is deprecated. Instead, add reference information to your code as Puppet Strings comments, and then use Strings to generate a REFERENCE.md in your module. For details on how to add code comments and generate documentation with Strings, see the Puppet Strings documentation and style guide

If you aren't ready to use Strings yet, manually create a REFERENCE.md in the root of your module directory and list out each of your module's classes, defined types, facts, functions, Puppet tasks, task plans, and resource types and providers, along with the parameters for each.

For each element (class, defined type, function, and so on), list:

  • The data type, if applicable.
  • A description of what the element does.
  • Valid values, if the data type doesn't make it obvious.
  • Default value, if any.

For example:

### `pet::cat`

#### Parameters

##### `meow`

Enables vocalization in your cat. Valid options: 'string'.

Default: 'medium-loud'.

Limitations

In the Limitations section, list any incompatibilities, known issues, or other warnings.

Development

In the Development section, tell other users the ground rules for contributing to your project and how they should submit their work.
