Issue #17204 has been updated by Stefan Eriksson.
Hi I've looked through the --graph but I still think my request is valid, I see
great need for the above.
1. IMO Tree view would be better for displaying dependency "arrows" as above
there is clear lines between objects
2. Alot of our servers are without X so we have to export .dom from the server
to a desktop to view it.
3. a puppet --showdeps command that does the above in bash and displays it to
sdout would be great for debugging, it could expect --noop so it wont be needed
to include in the command line:
For example: puppet apply --modulepath=/opt/puppet/modules
/opt/puppet/manifests/site.pp --showdeps
├── postfix
├── proftpd
└── users
└── apache2
└── php5
----------------------------------------
Feature #17204: puppetd command to list dependencies and how config relate to
each class etc. (for bug hunting in which order the config is run)

Today we have --noop but its in my opinion outputting to much info not relating
to "the order of how puppet will run its config" I would love to have a
command, for example:
puppetd --showdeps or something, which would output maybe in a tree like
structure (simplified):
<pre>
.
├── postfix
├── proftpd
└── users
└── apache2
└── php5
</pre>
this indicate that postfix and proftpd also users, can run without
dependencies, but apache2 is depending on users to have been installed before
puppet can process the apache2 class (example, because of suexec with user from
users.pp)
Also php5 is depending on that apache2 is installed before we can install php5.
etc.
A short summary as this above would help me alot, no other config output on
what was going to happen etc as with --noop. But simply something like the
above tree structure which lists current configs dependency tree. You could
easily see if php5 was missplaced in its dependency if it was listed beteween
postfix and proftpd.
