Pupistry and Masterful Puppet

[ljohnston]

Do you have any thoughts with regard to using pupistry and masterful puppet on nodes? I'm thinking about a situation where the ops team is managing masterful puppet, manifests, etc. for corporate level stuff across the enterprise, while dev teams use pupistry for their application-specific deployment and configuration to those same boxes?

Thanks,
Lance

hi Lance,

It's entirely possible, I could take many of the modules in $dayjob's (massive) Puppet masterful environment and they would just work. I've been considering using Pupistry for things like Vagrant or Docker builds for some time.

Really the only thing that won't work via Pupistry is anything reliant on exported configuration (PuppetDB) and any dynamic Hiera backends (ie not file-based) could get tricky.

regards,
Jethro
