I have the problem of installing stuff in zip files (that is the tipical way of distributing java stuffs as JBoss, WSO2). Which can be the preferred solution to make such an install: - the only option I see is gettin the zip with curl or wget and than executing a unzip placing the stuff in the desired folder.
Doing this leaves behind the zip files somewhere and removing it causes puppet to download it again everytime. It would be best to have a sort of provider dedicated to zip so that it can remove and can have all the knowledge of wheather the stuff is installed or not. Logically I do not want the file in the server, but I need it to make puppet do the work: if I understand well the puppet philosophy this way of doing is a bit against it since I do not have to create a list of instructions to obtain a result, but I should just list a set of configutations (I need a file there because I need it) Any hint on good practices.
