I'm creating a module, and I want to override the file resource for
puppet.conf which is defined within a module called "puppet". The resource
declaration looks like this:
# modules/puppet/manifests/init.pp
class puppet {
...
file { '/etc/puppet/puppet.conf':
content => template('puppet/puppet.conf.erb'),
}
...
}
I want to override this file resource to provide a customized puppet.conf,
and I'm trying to do so using inheritance. My module is laid out as
follows:
# modules/foreman-proxy directory
├── manifests
│ ├── init.pp
│ └── puppet.pp
└── templates
└── puppet.conf.erb
# init.pp
class foreman-proxy inherits puppet {
include foreman-proxy::puppet
}
# puppet.pp
class foreman-proxy::puppet inherits puppet {
file { '/etc/puppet/puppet.conf':
content => template('foreman-proxy/puppet.conf.erb'),
}
}
When I run this on the client, I get the error:
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
Could not find scope for foreman-proxy::puppet on node <myservername>
Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
What am I doing incorrectly? Is there a better approach? I'm trying to
avoid modifying the existing puppet module, because it's applied across
many servers.
