Thanks!

I've decided to stick with create_resources :)

[Puppet Users] Announce Strings 0.4.0 Released

[Hailee Kenney]

We’re excited to announce the latest release of the puppet strings
documentation tool! Puppet strings 0.4.0 is a backwards compatible minor
release. It includes bug fixes as well as a new feature that produces a
JSON representation of a module. It’s also the first version of puppet
strings to be release as a ruby gem, and the last version that will be
released as a puppet module. After some discussion, it seemed clear that a
ruby gem is a preferable distribution method, so going forward, all new
releases will only be distributed via the gem.

Shout out to language team intern Ian Kronquist for the awesome new JSON
feature, and community member David Danzilio for doing the work to make the
gem release possible.

* The CHANGELOG can be found here:
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-strings/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

* The module can be found on the Forge here:
https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/strings

* The ruby gem can be found here: https://rubygems.org/gems/puppet-strings

* Installation and usage instructions can be found here:
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-strings/blob/master/README.md


To track issues related to this release or file new issues, check out the
PDOC JIRA project:

Re: [Puppet Users] Could not find default node or by name with 'vm7012.muc.baag, if not defined in manifests/node.pp

[Chad Huneycutt]

Per https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3.7/reference/lang_node_definitions.html

"If site.pp contains at least one node definition, it must have one
for every node"

if you want the default behavior to be to just pull in classes from
hiera, then I would recommend wrapping your hiera_include in the
default node definition:

node default {
  hiera_include('classes')
}

You need to fix the content of $foobar

You are passing a Hash as an parameter to a define.
Inside the define you expect the parameter to be of type String - according to 
what you do in the define.

You need to take care of splitting data accordingly in your define:
With Puppet 4 this is very easy to achieve:

Re: [Puppet Users] Use nodes with defined resource in nginx configuration

[Justin Rowles]

Hi Gareth,

I'd be interested on your feedback with a gem that we at BGCH have just 
released: bgch-hiera-consul.  It's on rubygems.

It's derived from lynxman's hiera-consul, but the behaviour is different. 
 It permits storing yaml and/or json as a value and parses it for hiera 
variables.

Hope you like it!

Justin.

[Puppet Users] Virtual resources ?

[Jakov Sosic]

Hi guys,

I have a `test.pp` manifest that looks like:


```
define basket($arg) {
  file { "/tmp/$name":
ensure  => present,
content => $arg,
  }
}

foobar = {
  'fruit' => { arg => 'apple' },
  'berry' => { arg => 'watermelon' }
}

@basket[$foobar]

realize( Basket[fruit] )
realize( Basket[berry] )
```


When I run `puppet apply test.pp`, this is what I get:

Error: Could not parse for environment production: Virtual (@) can only 
be applied to a Resource Expression at /tmp/pero.pp:16:1 on node workstation



Any ideas?

[Puppet Users] Puppet, Hiera, and Consul

[Justin Rowles]

For those who would like to expand their use of Hiera to talk to a Consul 
server/cluster, British Gas Connected Home have made available a gem called 
bgch-hiera-consul on rubygems.

It derives from lynxman's hiera-consul, but works somewhat differently.  

It fulfils the hiera_hash and hiera_array functionality, and does all 
parsing of data in Consul value stores for you.  Thus you can embed 
(currently) json or yaml directly and bgch-hiera-consul will populate your 
hiera variables (and thus puppet class parameters) for all of the sub 
entries.

We use this, currently, for our development clusters, where we want to have 
a quick turnaround in our puppet process.  Instead of editing yaml files, 
we can manually or  automatically push values to our Consul store, and 
puppet will pick them up on the next run.

Source and sample code are at https://github.com/ConnectedHomes/hiera-consul

Any feedback, whether in questions, PRs, or complaints, will be appreciated.

Justin.

If your machines rely on the network to determine their hostnames, and 
Puppet is configured to use the hostname as certname (as it is by default), 
then it follows that you cannot successfully perform Puppet catalog runs 
until the network is up and the machine has determined (or maybe just can 
determine) its own hostname.  I'm not well versed in OS X service 
management, which in any case I understand has changed somewhat over time, 
but surely it has a conventional idiom for expressing that sort of 
dependency.

Alternatively, and perhaps a bit quicker and dirtier, you could run the 
agent via an external scheduler instead of as a daemon in its own right 
(i.e. with --onetime --no-daemonize).  This has a lot of advantages, one of 
the lesser being that if the agent does issue a certificate request, it 
will do so only once per scheduled run (and fail the run if it does not 
receive the requested cert).  Supposing that you can rely on the network 
eventually coming up, and the machines learning their correct hostnames, 
the problem will go away (on a per-machine, per-boot basis) once that 
happens.  Overall, you will see far fewer cert-request errors logged.

Re: [Puppet Users] unable to create home directory

It's unclear whether you need to give Puppet permission, whether you need 
to give it an additional resource to manage, or whether you just need to 
instruct Puppet to manage resources in a different relative order.  I'd 
rate a permission problem the least likely of those possibilities.

If you expect the new user's home directory to be created as part of the 
process of creating a new user under Puppet management, then

   1. the relevant User resource must be synced before any ssh key 
   attributed to them, and
   2. that resource's parameters should specify that the user home 
   directory is to be managed.
   
You have not the module you are using well enough for me to distinguish it 
from the dozens of other SSH modules, but your log excerpt shows it using 
the standard Ssh_authorized_key resource type.  That type automatically 
causes the key's associated user to be managed before the key itself if 
that user is in fact under management as a User resource, so I conclude 
that either there is no such User in the catalog all (in which case I'm 
uncertain why you characterize the context as creating a new user) or else 
that User is not configured as you need it to be.

For example, for this to work properly in conjunction with creating a new 
user, you might need the relevant User resource to be configured with *at 
least* these properties and parameters:

user { 'admin':
  ensure => 'present',
  uid=> 1, # or whatever
  gid=> 1, # or whatever
  home   => '/home/admin',
  managehome => true
}

Alternatively, if your local user management subsystem does not support 
managing user home directories directly in concert with creating users, 
then you might need to manage the home directory explicitly, as a File 
resource.  In that case you will want to specify a relationship between 
that File and the User or Ssh::Key that causes the home directory to be 
managed first.

If you do have a permission problem after all, however, then in order to 
solve it you need to understand its nature.  Are there mandatory access 
controls (i.e. SELinux policy) preventing Puppet from doing what it needs 
to do?  Is /home on a remote file system that squashes root privileges?  Is 
puppet running as an unprivileged user?  There may be other possibilities.  
You can't solve such a problem without knowing in some detail what the 
problem is.

[Puppet Users] Could not find default node or by name with 'vm7012.muc.baag, if not defined in manifests/node.pp

[Andreas Dvorak]

Dear all

if I do not list a server in the directory manifests e.g. in nodes.pp the 
agent says:
puppet agent -t
Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Could not find default node or by name with 'vm7012.muc.baag, vm7012.muc, 
vm7012' on node vm7012.muc.baag
Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run

I know that is should work, because I have got it on an other Puppet Master 
server.
How can to solve that? It should be ignored that the server is not listed.

cat site.pp

Re: [Puppet Users] unable to create home directory

[Lowe Schmidt]

Are you creating the user with puppet or do you have something like LDAP or
AD that manages users and access for you?

/home does exists but /home/admin doesn’t because it is a new user.

How should I give puppet permission to create this directory?

Re: [Puppet Users] Resources sharing across different classes.

[Martin Alfke]

Hi Arfoz,

this is the best example on how to _not_ do classes.
Every class should be self contained - as long as possible.
In your case you have a hard reference from one resource inside a class to 
another resource inside another class.
I always tell my training course attendees that they should never do this 
unless they don’t like themselves and they want to have Puppet nightmares.

In your case you can do the following hack:

make the add file class a parameterised class, set the parameter to the default 
behaviour:

class addfile (
  $enable_notify => Service[’tomcat’],
) {
  file {‘/tmp/hello’:
ensure => file,
notify => $enable_notify,
  }
}

On systems where you don’t have tomcat class included you have to declare the 
class add file with parameter set to undef.

But: be aware that even this is not a good solution.
It’s just a hack.
Try to refacter your modules.

Best,
Martin

[Puppet Users] Resources sharing across different classes.

[Afroz Hussain]

Hi All,

I am facing an issue to notify a service from different module whenever 
file changes.
Example:
I have a addfile module which creates a file and want to notify tomcat 
service which is present in tomcat module. 

class addfile {
   file {"/tmp/hello":
 ensure => file,
 content => "hello",
 notify   => Service["tomcat'],
   }
}


it is throwing an error as tomcat service is not in catalog.

I have 3.6.2 version of puppet and using ENC.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks,
Afroz Hussain

[Puppet Users] Re: Variables inside variables

[Daniel Sung]

I achieve this by using the getvar function in stdlib. For example:

getvar("::network_${::gateway_dev}")

Regards,
Daniel

[Puppet Users] Variables inside variables

[Jonathan Gazeley]

Hi folks,

Short version:

I want to use a variable inside a variable to access a fact. Is this 
possible?


Long version:

Facter provides facts $::ipaddress and $::netmask which figure out which 
is your primary interface and then return values like $::ipaddress_eth0 
and $::netmask_eth0. However there is not a $::network fact to reflect 
$::network_eth0.


I have a custom fact $::gateway_dev which returns the name of the 
primary interface. Is it possible to access the variable like 
${::network_${::gateway_dev}} ?


Thanks,
Jonathan

Re: [Puppet Users] unable to create home directory

[Patrick G.]

Nope …
With new users this should create the directory.

The debug log shows:
> Debug: Creating /home/admin/.ssh

But it doesn’t create it.
