Alright, this is definitely a Puppet 101 question, and I am sure that the
Puppet docs have an answer for this and I am just dense and can't find it.
I'm trying to teach myself Puppet, with the goal of managing the VPS I run
with it. Additionally, when I get a better grasp on things, I want to
deploy it at work. So while my home deployment will be small, I want to
learn how to "do it right."
I have a vanilla Puppet server and an agent. Both are managed through
Puppet.
Right now, on my agent node, I'm configuring Apache. I've got code like
this in my nodes.pp:
###
node 'hostname' {
include 'ntp'
include 'sudo'
class { 'vim':
opt_misc =>
['nu','fo=tcq','nocompatible','modeline','tabstop=2','expandtab','softtabstop=2','shiftwidth=2','backspace=indent,eol,start'],
}
class { 'apache':
serveradmin => 'whatever',
}
apache::vhost{ 'www.example.com':
default_vhost => true,
docroot => '/var/www/html/www.example.com',
logroot => '/var/log/httpd/www.example.com',
access_log_file => 'access_log',
error_log_file => 'error_log',
override => 'all',
}
some more vhosts
...
}
###
It seems like best practice is to put all of these configs in some separate
directory/file so I could end up with something like:
###
node 'hostname' {
include 'ntp'
include 'sudo'
class { 'vim':
opt_misc => $std_vim_ops
}
include 'vhost1'
include 'vhost2'
}
###
Now I guess I can make modules for each vhost, but that doesn't seem right.
How would I go about doing this? (Bear in mind that my second block of code
is just a rough approximation and I don't really know the right way to
write out what I want to do.)
Thanks for your patience. I've been searching for answers and not really
understanding what I come up with.
