We decided to distribute the pkg files the same way we do Linux
packages - via http. This define has been very useful to us:
define pkg_http($version,$source, $adminfile, $responsefile=undef){
exec {"/usr/sfw/bin/wget $source -O /var/tmp/$name-$version.pkg":
unless => "/usr/bin/test -f /var/tmp/$name-$version.pkg",
alias => "wget_$name",
} # exec
package { "$name":
ensure => 'installed',
provider => 'sun',
source => "/var/tmp/$name-$version.pkg",
adminfile => "$adminfile",
responsefile => $responsefile,
require => Exec["wget_$name"],
} # package
} # define pkg_http
Our typical admin file looks like this:
mail=
instance=unique
partial=nocheck
runlevel=nocheck
idepend=nocheck
rdepend=nocheck
space=nocheck
setuid=nocheck
conflict=nocheck
action=nocheck
networktimeout=60
networkretries=3
authentication=quit
keystore=/var/sadm/security
proxy=
basedir=default
