Hi all, We are configuring Jenkins and Sonar with puppet and both systems use plugins. What is the preferred way of managing plugin-like resources with puppet?
I am looking at two options but if you have a better idea let me know! 1. Create plugin::installed and plugin::uninstalled definitions: define plugin::installed { $plugin_url = "${name}" exec { "download-jenkins-plugin-${name}" : command => "wget -O `basename ${plugin_url}` ${plugin_url} --no-check-certificate", cwd => "${jenkins::plugin_dir}", path => '/usr/bin', user => "${jenkins::user}", group => "${jenkins::group}", creates => "${jenkins::plugin_dir}/${plugin}" } } define plugin::uninstalled { $plugin_url = "${name}" exec { "uninstall-jenkins-plugin ${name}" : command => "rm ${plugin_url}", cwd => "${jenkins::plugin_dir}", path => ['/usr/bin', '/bin'], user => "${jenkins::user}", onlyif => "test -e `basename ${plugin_url}`" } } and define an array of installed and uninstalled plugins on which the definitions are applied. OR 2. On every puppet run, clear the plugin directory and then download every plugin via a plugin definition and an array of installed plugins. Option 2 is more compact and easier to use but the downside is that plugins are downloaded every time. What do you think?
