Unix text tools, perl, ruby, Excel - choose your poison as you can wget the URL from "Export nodes as CSV" on the front page You may want to use my grep in http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7687#note-3 to trim down what you have to deal with John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

In the libdir you can see how report processors are put together, and you can send reports to multiple such processors. https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/tree/master/lib/puppet/reports/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet Dashboard Questions
Great! Is there any API to use to retrieve these information from dashboard database, so that we could generate a nice report via email, with short and verbose versions for such report?

Is this feature available in some dashboard release as of now?
