This puppet module is meant to manage /etc/puppet/puppet.conf and its family. It provides hooks for rsyslog + logrotate, and is configurable via hiera.
This module began life as a merge between some old puppet code, the ghoneycutt puppet module, and a lot of local custom work. It's currently in production across at least two sites, one large (~2700 nodes) and one small (~3 nodes).
Manages the puppet agent. This means either running the service as a daemon (default), or via cron on a regular basis.
Parameters:
cron_command Command to run if we are running via cron. There is a
default, and I do not use it much so somebody should
look at it in more detail.
cron_user User to run the cronjob as; defaults to 'root'.
cron_run_at_boot Set this if you're running in 'cron' mode.
cron_run_in_noop If set, we won't actually make any changes. Defaults to
false.
cron_run_interval If running via cron, how often should we run? Defaults
to 30 (minutes).
cron_earliest_hour Don't run the cronjob before this hour (except for boot)
cron_latest_hour Don't run the cronjob after this hour (except for boot)
daemon_name If we are running as a daemon, what is the daemon name?
Defaults to 'puppet'.
run_method Pick one of: 'service' or 'cron'; default is 'service'
Manages /etc/puppet/puppet.conf. It is meant for configuration via hiera.
There are puppet-strings-compatible docs included; a few specific useful
parameters should provide some flavor:
agent Should we configure the puppet agent variables?
Defaults to true.
certname Maps to the certname field in [main]. Defaults to $facts['networking']['fqdn']
enc Are we using an external node classifier? If so, set
this to the right script name. Defaults to 'false'.
env Default puppet environment; required.
env_timeout 180 (seconds)
is_ca Am I the Certificate Authority? Corresponds to the 'ca'
field. Defaults to false.
log_level What severity should puppet use? Defaults to 'notice'.
master Should we configure the puppet master variables?
Defaults to false.
no_warnings Array of strings from which to ignore warnings; maps to the
'disable_warnings' field. Empty by default.
runinterval How often should the puppet daemon run? Defaults to unset.
runtimeout What is the max runtime any catalog should have?
run_in_noop If set, don't make any changes with a puppet run.
Defaults to false.
server The main puppet server name. Required, no default.
splaylimit How much random time should we add to runinterval?
Defaults to unset.
strict https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/configuration.html#strict
use_puppetdb If set, turns on puppetdb for storeconfigs. Defaults
to off.
Start the puppetserver process. Currently not very configurable.
Set up syslog to log to /var/log/puppet.log (configurable).
