There is a package_name parameter in the Forge module. It's designed to allow you to install e.g. MariaDB instead of MySQL, but it would work fine for your use case as well.

Hi Lowe,

My concern is with package name. MySQL package name differs for each version. In the forge module, if you try installing with mysql::server(ensure=>5.6.31) it will fail if you don't pass package name as(MySQL-server) an argument.

 5.0/5.1 ---> MySQL-server-community
 5.6 ----> MySQL-server
 5.7 --->mysql-community-server

How to handle this logic ?

Thanks

Have a look at the mysql module in the forge [0]. They solve it by having a package_ensure parameter to the mysql::server class which is one of [ 'present', 'latest, 'absent', 'x.y.z' ] where "x.y.z" is a version string.

    Hi,

    Puppet 3.4 with hieara.

    what is the best place to define package name within a module?
    package name varies based on package version.

    Thanks
