Are you proposing that this lives out in the installer exclusively, or that it is part of Puppet proper? Would that change in future? ---------------------------------------- Feature #7216: Optionally have installer on Puppet master configure data for base set of modules https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7216 Author: Garrett Honeycutt Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected PE version: If I am installing a Puppet Master, it would be nice if it gave me the option to enable certain modules. Upon enabling them it would prompt for applicable data. ie: <pre> Manage resolver? [Y/n] Y Please list your name servers, comma delimited: dns1.foo.tld,dns2.foo.tld Please supply your search path, comma delimited [foo.tld]: eng.foo.tld,foo.tld </pre> Then this data could be written and accessed by a module. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
