I'm not familiar with OnApp, but the typical pattern for bootstrapping
cloud instances is to pass them a templated shell script that
bootstraps puppet onto the machine.

Here is an example template/script which I use with Foreman
(http://www.theforeman.org/) ENC/provisioning system for bootstrapping
Ubuntu 12.04 EC2 nodes (Please feel free to follow up with any
questions.):

#! /bin/bash

echo "updating system time"
/usr/sbin/ntpdate -sub ntp.pool.org

echo "<%= @host %>" > /etc/hostname
hostname <%= @host %>

echo "PUT_A_DUBUG_PUBLIC_SSH_KEY_HERE" > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys

echo "Configuring apt"
cat > /etc/apt/sources.list << EOF
<%= snippets "precise-sources" -%>
EOF

apt-get update
apt-get -y install ruby ruby1.8 libshadow-ruby1.8 libruby1.8
wget http://production.cf.rubygems.org/rubygems/rubygems-1.8.24.tgz
tar xvzf rubygems-1.8.24.tgz
pushd rubygems-1.8.24
ruby setup.rb
popd
gem1.8 install -v 2.6.9 --no-rdoc --no-ri puppet
mkdir /etc/puppet
# and add the puppet and ruby-shadow package
#apt-get -y install puppet

echo "Configuring puppet"
cat > /etc/puppet/puppet.conf << EOF
<%= snippets "puppetbgllc.conf" -%>
EOF

/usr/bin/puppetd --config /etc/puppet/puppet.conf -o --tags
no_such_tag --no-daemonize

puppetd --verbose
exit 0
