Alex Heneveld commented on WHIRR-385:
-------------------------------------
Slight hitch re syntax. Apache Configuration (like Java properties) don't like
colons in the keys, unless they are backslashed. It interprets them as {{=}}
i.e. {{postgresql::server.user=foo}} sets key {{postgresql}} equal to
{{:server.user=foo}} .
Some options for alternatives:
{noformat}
(1) postgresql\:\:server.user=foo # escape them
(2) postgresql..server.user=foo # replace all : with .
(3) postgresql.user=foo # attributes are per-module only,
not per-manifest
(4) puppet.mypostgres=postgresql::server # symbolic role names
(4) mypostgres.user=foo
(5) postgresql::server.user=foo # stick with this syntax, using a
custom parser
{noformat}
What's nicest?

> As a user of Whirr, I'd like to be able to use puppet scripts (manifests,
> modules) from within Whirr to set up machines and clusters, because there are
> a lot of OS-neutral capabilities and a large number of actively maintained
> scripts which I could benefit from.
