Re: [Puppet Users] Re: quick basics to install functioning ubuntu system?

2010-12-09 Thread Kevin Beckford
Thanks. I did see those before. At the time of my original question, I was looking for sets of modules, which do not seem to exist per se. The urgency has passed, I did it by hand. This however is a terrible way to think ;) so I am relearning puppet for the next time. I think I get it now, what I w

[Puppet Users] Best practices using puppet on partially installed systems.

2010-12-09 Thread Kevin Beckford
So, my configuration attempts are aimed at Linodes . Ubuntu 10.10 to be exact. Linodes are libcloud enabled as well as basically provisioned. What I seek to do is add to that, not build from nothing, since libcloud et. al. give me a base to work with. What is the canonical way to manage this

[Puppet Users] Roadmap wrt the Ruby DSL

2010-12-11 Thread Kevin Beckford
I noticed the posts about a ruby DSL, and I was wondering what the future plan is for this functionality. I _just_ noticed this. Originally I was drawn to puppet because of the declarative nature of the DSL and frankly, because I am not that familiar with Ruby. Are we moving towards ruby as the

That's very good to hear, the DSL was much nicer to work with in this domain then Ruby was, for the non Ruby user. I was viewing the DSL like django's template language, or similar, and that helped a great deal. Thanks for the quick reply. -- You received this message because you are subscribed

[Puppet Users] How to add ubuntu ppa

2011-01-13 Thread Kevin Beckford
Now, I noticed the yumrepo, but this is of little use today, I need to add an ubuntu ppa ( a few really ) to my installation. How would this be done? Is there a provider that can do this? I searched for one, and saw an answer dating from 09, but surely things have changed since then? -- You

I think it depends on the use case. I much prefer the git method. I'm trying to do it the classic way this week, but there is a lot of decisions to deploy an efficient puppetmaster which add complexity and unwanted software to some setups. Git does ssh. Git is far faster. Finally, the sour
