Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Role-based puppet
In that example, 'role' is a module, and 'role::somerole' is a class
in that module:
/etc/puppet/modules/role/manifests/somerole.pp:
class role::somerole {
...
}

Is this a module or a manifest? What is role and what somerole? How does
the content look like and where do I have to create it?
Can you give me an example?

[Puppet Users] Re: Role-based puppet
Hi,
What you'll need is some way to classify nodes, I do this through Hiera.
Per node I have a yaml file named after the host: hostname.yaml with the
following:
---
roles:
- '::role::somerole'
In manifests/site.pp I only define one node, the default:
node default {
hiera_include('roles', [])
}
Now when hostname checks in it will hit node default and a hiera lookup
will be done for an array named 'roles', which I just defined in the yaml
file. If it's found those roles, which are actually a puppet module, are
included on the host/in the catalog and get applied. If not we return an
empty array so nothing happens, you can also chose not to provide a default
in which case it will error.
As for how to organise roles and profile in Puppet, Craig Dunn has a very
nice post that should get you started:

Hi guys,
I want realise a role-based puppet-configuration. What I mean is this:
There should be a simple external text-file, which contains hostname/node
-- role association.
Then there should be a class-definition for each role. In this way, I want
to associate a server with different roles.
In this way, Puppet should look for the hostname of the Puppet-Agent in
the external file and see what roles it should have and then
execute the role-classes.
I hope I could explain my problem. The problem is, that I've no idea how
to realise it.
Please help
