Module Description

If applicable, this section should have a brief description of the technology the module integrates with and what that integration enables. This section should answer the questions: "What does this module do?" and "Why would I use it?"

If your module has a range of functionality (installation, configuration, management, etc.) this is the time to mention it.

Setup

What puppet affects

• A list of files, packages, services, or operations that the module will alter, impact, or execute on the system it's installed on.
• This is a great place to stick any warnings.
• Can be in list or paragraph form.

Beginning with puppet

class { 'puppet::agent':
  puppetmaster       => 'demoserver',
  puppetmasterport   => '1234',
  puppetenv          => 'tstenv',
}

Usage

multiple agents

To be able to have multiple agents we can use a cronjobs:

puppet::agent::cron { 'puppet.systemadmin.es':
  masterport => '8140',
}

Reference

Here, list the classes, types, providers, facts, etc contained in your module. This section should include all of the under-the-hood workings of your module so people know what the module is touching on their system but don't need to mess with things. (We are working on automating this section!)

Development

We are pushing to have acceptance testing in place, so any new feature should have some tests to check both presence and absence of any feature

TODO

• improve configuration options
