Need some assistance with what I believe is a requirement that can be
solved using Exported Resources (or maybe there is another method which is
better suited).
I have a module svn::server::init. This module can be called with a
parameter is_master which defines whether it is a master SVN server or a
slave SVN system. What I need to be able to do is report back all the nodes
that are called with is_master = false so that the master is aware of all
the slaves.
The solution I had some up with was the following:
if $is_master {
File <<| tag == 'svn_slave' |>> { }
} else {
@@file { "$svn::params::c_path/slave.$hostname":
content => "hostname = $fqdn\nip =
$ipaddress\n",
tag => 'svn_slave',
}
}
So basically what that does is export a file /etc/subversion/slave.HOSTNAME
for every client. The master then realizes those and creates a file for
each client in /etc/subversion. That works pretty well. But my issue is
that I need to use the hostname/FQDN of each client in a template
(generating hooks to mirror the repos to each slave that is out there).
Thinking of how to do this I thought well I could write a FACT that then
parses those /etc/subversion/slave.HOSTNAME files. Is that the best way to
do that? Or is there a way through exporting a resource that I could get
the details directly in my manifest? If I wrote a fact to do it I would
essentially have to run puppet twice in order to spin up a new slave. First
run would create the /etc/subversion/slave.HOSTNAME file and second run
that would be included in the fact (first run it wouldn't because the file
didn't exist yet).
Thanks for your help
