It would be the guy who wrote Bug:1 to send this. :) Documentation
levels certainly vary. It would be nice to work on making them a bit
better. Patches welcome.

Nice! I like that by expanding the 'source' option I can see dependencies
as well as what it's actually doing in terms of config etc. The textual
descriptions of the roles are mostly pretty vague so far; should we expand
them for instance to describe what will be installed and how to go about
tweaking if tweaking is needed, or just leave that to the source view?

[Wikitech-l] More useful Puppet docs for MediaWiki-Vagrant

2017-01-10 Thread Bryan Davis 
Hashar did some magic and replaced our use of `puppet doc` with yard
which is now generating prettier and more useful documentation of the
roles and other Puppet components in the MediaWiki-Vagrant project. Go
check them out if you are interested:
. Try searching for
"role::" to get the list of all roles.
