Hello there
I'm deploying a program which has generic and OS specific (as well as
architecture, but that's a minor issue). So in essence i'm deploying
from blah_generic/etc recursive and then blah_linux/etc . I need the
files from both operations, but was hitting some snags (I've found a
work around):
1) the second operation replaces the files from the first operation.
2) I was thinking symlinks, but i doubt that would be very
maintainable.
3) then I was thinking copy, but then i have issues with
maintainability and consumption of extra space.
2 and 3 aren't major issues, but there are conceivably going to be
updates so i would like it to remain clean.
My work around (which might be the solution) is that instead of a
recursive copy of the directory into the same place, i copy the
specified files, but alas that isn't dynamic and would require extra
work when upgrade time comes....
I'm guessing i'm missing a type operation... here is what i've got:
class blah
{
if (skip_blah != "true")
{
## deploy generic
# transfer generic data
file
{ "/var/blah/blah_v2":
path => "/var/blah/blah_v2",
owner => blah,
group => blah,
mode => 775,
recurse => true,
source => "puppet:///blah/blah_v2_generic",
}
## choose by OS for specific
case $operatingsystem
{
redhat:
{
file
{ "/var/blah/blah_v2_linux/etc":
# no good path => "/var/blah/blah/etc",
owner => blah,
group => blah,
mode => 775,
# no good recurse => true,
# no good source => "puppet:///blah/
blah_v2_linux/etc",
source =>
[
"puppet:///blah/blah_v2_linux/etc/blahsys.sh",
"puppet:///blah/blah_v2_linux/etc/blahsys.local",
]
}
}
}
}
}
with the "no good"s being replaced by the alternate "source => [...]"
statement .
Is there a more dynamic way of doing this?
Cheers
