Subject: [Puppet Users] how to create directory recursively (if parents not
present)?
To: Puppet Users <puppet-users@googlegroups.com>
Dear all,
As said in the subject line, is there a "nice" way of creating
directory tree if parent is not already there, like using "mkdir -p"?
I tried this:
class install_certs {
$cert_dir = 'globus/cert'
exec {
'create_cert':
command => "/bin/mkdir -p /opt/$cert_dir",
refreshonly => true,
}
file {
"${hostname}-cert.pem":
name => "/opt/$cert_dir/${hostname}-cert.pem",
mode => '0444', owner => 'root', group => 'root',
source => "puppet:///modules/p_nodes/${hostname}-cert.pem";
}
}
which is not working at all. Any suggestion from anyone? Cheers!!

The following will do what you want:
file { ['/opt', '/opt/globus', '/opt/globus/cert']:
ensure => directory,
}
Because of the implicit dependencies that exist between directories and
their parents that are managed by puppet, you do not need to specify any
ordering - puppet will set it up for you.
You can write a defined resource type to do this for you if you'd like, or
you can use the Ruby DSL to create a mkdir_p function.
