The itch that needs scratching is having files served from a lightweight HTTP-only server. If there is a way to do this "relatively easily" as you say using the existing file transfer methods, I suspect it would satisfy our need, but I cannot see any way to do this without spinning up additional puppetmasters (from my reading of the docs at least). ---------------------------------------- Feature #4997: HTTP file source for file type https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4997 Author: Oliver Hookins Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected version: Keywords: Branch: We would like to be able to use an HTTP source for the file type.
