Puppet environment structure: Manifest

Hierarchy that to be followed for creating a structure to execute site.pp file:

Steps on Puppet master


/etc/puppet/modules/ * (follow the below structure)

Execute this command which is taken from https://forge.puppet.com/Aethylred/git

# puppet module install Aethylred-git


# puppet module install Aethylred-git --version 0.3.1
# cd /etc/puppet/modules

Note: * this with download the git under the module

Create a directory structure


# mkdir -p /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests
# cd /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests

Create git.pp file


→ /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests # vi git.pp

Under modules: /profile/manifests (create git.pp here)

class profile::git {

include ::git
}

Now Create a new file roles/manifests


→ mkdir -p /etc/puppet/modules/role/manifests

Under modules: /role/manifests (create scm.pp here)

class role::scm
{
include ::profile::git
}

Create hiera file

Under: /etc/puppet/ ( create hiera.yaml here)


Example:

---
? !ruby/symbol backends
:
- yaml
? !ruby/symbol hierarchy
:
- scm
? !ruby/symbol yaml
:
? !ruby/symbol datadir
: /etc/puppet/hieradata
---
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: "/etc/puppet/hieradata"
:hierarchy:
- scm
Install puppet-lint ---- to check paths of manifest

Create hiera file directory


→ # mkdir -p /etc/puppet/hieradata

cd hieradata
vi scm.yaml

Under: /etc/puppet/hieradata (create scm.yaml)


Example:
---
classes:
- "role::scm"

Create a site.pp
→# cd /etc/puppet/manifests
vi site.pp

Example:


node "puppetagent-1.test.org" {
hiera_include('classes')

# package { 'git':
# name => 'git',
# ensure => installed,
#}
}

#/etc/puppet/ hiera.yaml

hieradata/scm.yaml
# /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
