Re: [Puppet Users] Manual run with specific class
If you don't want to transfer the class files (and any dependencies) over to the agent host, which is what I was suggesting here then perhaps you can get your desired behaviour using a custom fact. Assuming that you have facter.dot.d installed (usually from stdlib) do something like: $ echo 'run_manual: false' >> /etc/facter/facter.d/custom.yaml And then check this fact before including your manual class in your node config, something like: if $run_manual { include manual } Then when you do want to apply the class then change the fact value to true and do a onetime Puppet run. Details above might be slightly off as I am not in from of a computer but you get the idea. - Keith On 16 May 2013 23:40, "Nev" wrote: > thanks, but no: > > # puppet apply --execute 'include manual' > Error: Could not find class manual > > On Thursday, May 16, 2013 2:47:35 PM UTC-6, Keith Burdis wrote: >> >> Perhaps try: >> >> # puppet apply --execute 'include manual' >> >> - Keith >> On 16 May 2013 21:40, "Nev" wrote: >> >>> I need to be able to run a certain class ONLY when it is called >>> manually from the client. >>> >>> I created a class named "manual" and can run it from the client like >>> this: >>> >>> puppet agent --no-daemonize --onetime --verbose --tags=manual >>> >>> However it only works if that class is specified in the node >>> definition.
