How would one go about fetching a template from Maven? For example, the
normal way of using a file resource for an application config file might be:

file { "/etc/app/app.xml":
    mode    => "0755",
    owner   => "appuser",
    group   => "appuser",
    content => template("app/app.xml.erb"), # retrieved from
modules/app/templates/app.xml
    notify  => Service[app],
    require => Package[app];
}

However, what if app.xml.erb is in a separate Maven repository on some
other server? How would you go about retrieving and evaluating the template?

How might you go about this for a normal file, i.e. instead of source =>
"puppet://..." ?

I guess you could use an exec resource for a normal file but probably not
for a template since Puppet needs to evaluate the code in the template file.

Thoughts?
