Can anyone give me a hint about how to use puppet to parse the configuration of a host (e.g. auto load all needed manifest files using puppet internals using external node, inheritance order etc ). After this part is done, it should be rather easy to parse all of the files and generate some html c

Hi, I'm interested, I've already done some basic work on the puppet side. In our setup we decided not to use storeconfig (due to technical limitations of having too many puppet masters in different locations), therefor, we have re implemented many of facts importing and collecting. I would assume

You could just do exec { "gem-install-mysql": command => "gem install mysql --no-rdoc --no-ri -- --with-mysql-config=/usr/bin/mysql_config", } Then you can rely on require => Exec["gem-install-mysql"] elsewhere. On Mon, Sep 22, 2008 at 2:15 PM, Ed Greenberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I need
