Hello there,
I'm trying to replace our current sed and rsync configuration
management solution and we are used to have static and dynamic
configuration files in the same folder.
After creating a prototype with puppet I defined the static files as
modules and the dynamic files as templates.
What I could do to merge these two kind of files is to move the static
files in the template folder, but what I would lose is the ability to
declare two file sources for that file, e.g.
file { "/etc/$name/catalina.policy":
[...]
source => [ "puppet:///$linie/$name/catalina.policy",
"puppet:///default/catalina.policy" ]
}
so that puppet looks if there is a specific catalina.policy for that
project and uses that or, if not, use a default one.
Now to my actual questions:
Are there any performance or other concerns using templates for static
files?
Is there a easier way to manage static and dynamic files in one
folder?
Can I define a template with two source files, so that it uses the
general config file, if the specific one doesn't exist?
So what I want is something like that:
content => template("$linie/$name/catalina.policy", "default/
catalina.policy")
