Issue #14428 has been updated by Pieter van de Bruggen.
`install`, `list`, `uninstall`, and `upgrade` all respect the `--modulepath` option for specifying module locations (and this *should* be documented), and this is the preferred way to specify a standalone installation directory. `--target-dir` (`-i`) is meant for when you want to install into a specific directory, but resolve dependencies against the modulepath. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14428: inconsistent options for module install / list https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14428#change-62573 Author: Anand Kumria Status: Investigating Priority: Low Assignee: Pieter van de Bruggen Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.7.14 Keywords: Branch: Whilst looking at the work-around mentiond in #14424, I became aware of an inconsistency with puppet module. % puppet module install -i `pwd`/mtest akumria-nullmailer Preparing to install into /home/anand/Work/linuxpeak/puppet27/mtest ... Downloading from http://forge.puppetlabs.com ... Installing -- do not interrupt ... /home/anand/Work/linuxpeak/puppet27/mtest └─┬ akumria-nullmailer (v1.0.1) └── puppetlabs-stdlib (v2.3.2) % puppet module list --tree --modulepath mtest /home/anand/Work/linuxpeak/puppet27/mtest └─┬ akumria-nullmailer (v1.0.1) └── puppetlabs-stdlib (v2.3.2) It would be nice if the same option to specify the location was used for all commands (note that the upgrade command does not even seem to take an option to specify the location of the modules). -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
