[Puppet Users] How to create a signal file when the file changes

[程伟]

Hi,everyone! 
I want to create a signal file when some particular file changes. I find a 
syntax called *notify* in puppet docs could realize my need. So I tried 
like this:

file {'target_file':
ensure => 'present',
source => 'puppet:///files/target_file',
path => '/opt/target_file',
notify => File['signal_file'],
}

file {'signal_file':
ensure => 'present',
path => '/opt/signal/signal_file',
subscribe => File['target_file'],
}

However, I tried it many times, and found that even if target_file has 
existed and not changed, signal_file still created. It's not my purpose. 
Can anyone tell me if I miss something?

I think it is a problem about command in exec resource. Why not try  "
/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}/setup-seafile-mysql.py 
/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}5/${instanz}-answers.txt" in your 
shell? Or try "*python* 
/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}/setup-seafile-mysql.py 
/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}5/${instanz}-answers.txt"? When 
you make it works in shell, then try it in puppet.

Re: [Puppet Users] How to organizing puppet code on the master

[Andrew Grimberg]

I know some folks think this is heresy, but I personally dislike
defining each node in the default manifest.

I think it's better to drive as much data as possible from hiera as
possible, as such I do it more like this. I define a node definition
that does a hiera lookup to determine what role to apply and drive it
from there.

My current Puppet 5 implementation of this setup can be see here (yes,
this is my live configuration, yes I'm aware that seems horrible running
the whole thing out there like this :D )

Main puppet: https://github.com/tykeal/puppetserver-v5-main

Hiera: https://github.com/tykeal/puppetserver-v5-hiera (uses
hiera-eyaml-gpg for secrets management)

All profiles: https://github.com/tykeal/puppetserver-v5-mod-profile

All roles: https://github.com/tykeal/puppetserver-v5-mod-role

Mind you, I'm working on re-implementing a green field puppet 5 setup.
I've got a working puppet 4 one. All the same repos, just drop the -v5-
from the name.

Check the main repo Puppetfile for all forge / custom modules in play.

The missing ingredient is that you need to create an `iburst` node 
underneath your new server; in augtool something like

ins server before server[1]
set server[1] time.example.com
touch server[1]/iburst
save

The 'touch' will create a node with no content/value, which is exactly what 
the Ntp lens expects to output 'iburst' after the server name. I highly 
recommend dumping the whole tree structure in cases like this with 
something like 'print /files/etc/ntp.conf' in augtool (or using the brand 
new 'augmatch' command line tool, e.g. 'augmatch -a /etc/ntp.conf' ;)

It is *possible* to build a functional manifest set that does not use 
modules, but it is a poor idea.  Most sites have at least one (local) 
module for configuration details specific to that site, however, and it may 
be that putting your few manifests and templates all into one such module 
will be sufficient for you, at least to start.

All classes should belong to modules, but you may use a local site module 
such as I already described as a catch-all for miscellany. Precious little 
is appropriately placed at top scope in the site manifest.  Node blocks, if 
you use them, are by far the most prominent among those.  With very few 
(situational) exceptions, all other manifest code should go into classes or 
node blocks.  The decision is not about logical fit, but rather about the 
semantics of top-scope code vs. more narrowly scoped code.

Note, too, that there is nothing inherently wrong with very small modules, 
if that seems to be a reasonable alternative for some of your code.

[Puppet Users] work on config that does not exist on first run

[Jochen Haeberle]

Hi again,

as outlined in my last post, I am trying to setup seafile using Puppet 5.5.1 on 
Debian 9.

I am struggling with a script based installation. As a work around, I tried to 
separate the steps. I want to prepare an answer file for the setup script, run 
that and adjust the config on the second puppet run.

I am having two problems:

When the script is run, there exists a symlink in the filesystem. Following a 
recipt from not so long ago, I want to use this:

exec {"check_installed":
  command => '/bin/true',
  onlyif => "/usr/bin/test -e /opt/seafile/${instanz}/seafile-server-latest",
}

1) I want to move the data folder created by the installer to a networked 
folder and create a symlink afterwards. The exec moving the folder is waiting 
for the existence of the folder, but the file resource doing the link is always 
executing. It seems like Puppet behaviour changed massively from version 3 I 
cannot find a working solution for this except writing a fact, which seems not 
manageable, as a fact may not be parameterized.
Is there a way to control execution of a file resource?

This runs all the time:
file { "/opt/seafile/${instanz}/seafile-data":
  ensure  => 'link',
  target  => "/mnt/seafile/${instanz}/seafile-data",
  require => Exec['check_installed'],
}

after that, the seafile installer will not run through, as the data-folder is 
already there.

2) I need to change the ini-based config crated during the setup. Problem is 
similar, whatever I do, this always runs and gives me an error:
ini_setting { "URL ${instanz}":
  ensure  => present,
  path=> "/opt/seafile/${instanz}/conf/ccnet.conf",
  section => 'General',
  setting => 'SERVICE_URL',
  value   => "https://${url};,
  require => Exec['check_installed'],
}
This is not that problematic, it gives an error, but puppet continues on. But I 
guess, I could run 1) as exec to solve it, but not 2)

Thanks for any advice, regards

Jochen

[Puppet Users] python Script with answer file not working

[Jochen Haeberle]

Hi,

I am trying to install seafile with Puppet. Puppet 5.5.1 on Debian 9.

seafile is installed with an interactive shellscript calling a python script. I 
prepared an answer file, which is interactively working fine, up until where 
the db password is asked for. The input there is handled differently, not 
echoed back to the prompt and the execution changes to interactively for the 
input.

The code part getting the user input looks like the following:

# prompt for user input
if password:
answer = getpass.getpass(desc).strip()
else:
answer = raw_input(desc).strip()

Is there a way to get this to work in Puppet? I tried with the following exec:

exec { 'run seafile installer w answers file':
command   => 
"/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}/setup-seafile-mysql.py 
/opt/seafile/${instanz}/${seafile_folder}5/${instanz}-answers.txt",
creates   => "/opt/seafile/${instanz}/seafile-server-latest",
require   => Archive[$seafile_archive],
provider  => shell,
  }
but I get:

Can it be done?

Re: [Puppet Users] How to organizing puppet code on the master

[Arnau]

Hi,

my opinion: create modules for everything, even if it's a single file copy.
But create something that you can expand in the future.

It's quite easy to create a puppet module (
http://fullstack-puppet-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/puppet_modules.html)
so it will take you 5 minutes to write your own module(s).

No matter how you start, working with modules is something that you'll
thank in the future when you decide to add more stuff (code/hosts) to your
puppet installation..

Then, create a manifest.pp and configure your nodes like:

node 'abc' {
}

node 'xyz' {
}

HTH,
Arnau

Re: [Puppet Users] converting Hiera v3 to v5 - :merge_behavior: deeper option?

[du]

Thanks all for your responses 

On a closer inspection, it turns out that deep merger indeed works out of 
the box on v5 without any additional tweaks. (@Henrik - your regex 
suggestion also works and I can no longer see errors)

We are not looking to stick with v3 forever, just wanted to minimise the 
number of changes as we make a big leap from puppet 3 to puppet 4
