Classes

`stdlib`

Most of stdlib's features are automatically loaded by Puppet, but this class should be declared in order to use the standardized run stages.

Declares all other classes in the stdlib module. Currently, this consists of stdlib::stages and stdlib::manage.

`stdlib::manage`

Sometimes your systems require a single simple resource. It can feel unnecessary to create a module for a single resource. There are a number of possible patterns to generate trivial resource definitions. This is an attempt to create a single clear method for uncomplicated resources. There is limited support for before, require, notify, and subscribe.

Examples

class { 'stdlib::manage':
  'create_resources'      => {
    'file'                => {
      '/etc/motd.d/hello' => {
        'content'         => 'I say Hi',
        'notify'          => 'Service[sshd]',
      },
      '/etc/motd'         => {
        'ensure'          => 'file',
        'epp'             => {
          'template'      => 'profile/motd.epp',
        }
      },
      '/etc/information'  => {
        'ensure'          => 'file',
        'erb'             => {
          'template'      => 'profile/informaiton.erb',
        }
      }
    },
    'package'             => {
      'example'           => {
        'ensure'          => 'installed',
        'subscribe'       => ['Service[sshd]', 'Exec[something]'],
      }
    }
  }
}

stdlib::manage::create_resources:
  file:
    '/etc/motd.d/hello':
      content: I say Hi
      notify: 'Service[sshd]'
    '/etc/motd':
      ensure: 'file'
      epp:
        template: 'profile/motd.epp'
        context: {}
    '/etc/information':
      ensure: 'file'
      erb:
        template: 'profile/information.erb'
  package:
    example:
      ensure: installed
      subscribe:
        - 'Service[sshd]'
        - 'Exec[something]'

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the stdlib::manage class:

create_resources

`create_resources`

Data type: Hash[String, Hash]

A hash of resources to create NOTE: functions, such as template or epp, are not directly evaluated but processed as Puppet code based on epp and erb hash keys.

Default value: {}

`stdlib::stages`

Declares various run-stages for deploying infrastructure, language runtimes, and application layers.

The high level stages are (in order):

setup
main
runtime
setup_infra
deploy_infra
setup_app
deploy_app
deploy

Examples

node default {
  include ::stdlib
  class { java: stage => 'runtime' }
}

Resource types

`anchor`

Note: this has been replaced by core puppet contain() method. Please see https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/latest/lang_containment.html for more information.

In Puppet 2.6, when a class declares another class, the resources in the interior class are not contained by the exterior class. This interacts badly with the pattern of composing complex modules from smaller classes, as it makes it impossible for end users to specify order relationships between the exterior class and other modules.

The anchor type lets you work around this. By sandwiching any interior classes between two no-op resources that are contained by the exterior class, you can ensure that all resources in the module are contained.

class ntp {
  # These classes will have the correct order relationship with each
  # other. However, without anchors, they won't have any order
  # relationship to Class['ntp'].
  class { 'ntp::package': }
  -> class { 'ntp::config': }
  -> class { 'ntp::service': }

  # These two resources "anchor" the composed classes within the ntp
  # class.
  anchor { 'ntp::begin': } -> Class['ntp::package']
  Class['ntp::service']    -> anchor { 'ntp::end': }
}

This allows the end user of the ntp module to establish require and before relationships with Class['ntp']:

class { 'ntp': } -> class { 'mcollective': }
class { 'mcollective': } -> class { 'ntp': }

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the anchor type.

name

`name`

namevar

The name of the anchor resource.

`file_line`

The implementation matches the full line, including whitespace at the beginning and end. If the line is not contained in the given file, Puppet will append the line to the end of the file to ensure the desired state. Multiple resources may be declared to manage multiple lines in the same file.

Ensure Example

file_line { 'sudo_rule':
  path => '/etc/sudoers',
  line => '%sudo ALL=(ALL) ALL',
}

file_line { 'sudo_rule_nopw':
  path => '/etc/sudoers',
  line => '%sudonopw ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL',
}

In this example, Puppet will ensure both of the specified lines are contained in the file /etc/sudoers.

Match Example

file_line { 'bashrc_proxy':
  ensure => present,
  path   => '/etc/bashrc',
  line   => 'export HTTP_PROXY=http://squid.puppetlabs.vm:3128',
  match  => '^export HTTP_PROXY=',
}

In this code example match will look for a line beginning with export followed by HTTP_PROXY and replace it with the value in line.

Examples With ensure => absent:

This type has two behaviors when ensure => absent is set.

One possibility is to set match => ... and match_for_absence => true, as in the following example:

file_line { 'bashrc_proxy':
  ensure            => absent,
  path              => '/etc/bashrc',
  match             => '^export HTTP_PROXY=',
  match_for_absence => true,
}

In this code example match will look for a line beginning with export followed by HTTP_PROXY and delete it. If multiple lines match, an error will be raised unless the multiple => true parameter is set.

Note that the line => ... parameter would be accepted BUT IGNORED in the above example.

The second way of using ensure => absent is to specify a line => ..., and no match:

file_line { 'bashrc_proxy':
  ensure => absent,
  path   => '/etc/bashrc',
  line   => 'export HTTP_PROXY=http://squid.puppetlabs.vm:3128',
}

Note: When ensuring lines are absent this way, the default behavior this time is to always remove all lines matching, and this behavior can't be disabled.

Encoding example:

file_line { "XScreenSaver":
  ensure   => present,
  path     => '/root/XScreenSaver',
  line     => "*lock: 10:00:00",
  match    => '^*lock:',
  encoding => "iso-8859-1",
}

Files with special characters that are not valid UTF-8 will give the error message "invalid byte sequence in UTF-8". In this case, determine the correct file encoding and specify the correct encoding using the encoding attribute, the value of which needs to be a valid Ruby character encoding.

Autorequires: If Puppet is managing the file that will contain the line being managed, the file_line resource will autorequire that file.

Properties

The following properties are available in the file_line type.

`ensure`

Valid values: present, absent

Manage the state of this type.

Default value: present

`line`

The line to be appended to the file or used to replace matches found by the match attribute.

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the file_line type.

after
append_on_no_match
encoding
match
match_for_absence
multiple
name
path
provider
replace
replace_all_matches_not_matching_line

`after`

An optional value used to specify the line after which we will add any new lines. (Existing lines are added in place) This is also takes a regex.

`append_on_no_match`

Valid values: true, false

If true, append line if match is not found. If false, do not append line if a match is not found

Default value: true

`encoding`

For files that are not UTF-8 encoded, specify encoding such as iso-8859-1

Default value: UTF-8

`match`

An optional ruby regular expression to run against existing lines in the file. If a match is found, we replace that line rather than adding a new line. A regex comparison is performed against the line value and if it does not match an exception will be raised.

`match_for_absence`

Valid values: true, false

An optional value to determine if match should be applied when ensure => absent. If set to true and match is set, the line that matches match will be deleted. If set to false (the default), match is ignored when ensure => absent. When ensure => present, match_for_absence is ignored.

Default value: false

`multiple`

Valid values: true, false

An optional value to determine if match can change multiple lines. If set to false, an exception will be raised if more than one line matches

`name`

namevar

An arbitrary name used as the identity of the resource.

`path`

The file Puppet will ensure contains the line specified by the line parameter.

`provider`

The specific backend to use for this file_line resource. You will seldom need to specify this --- Puppet will usually discover the appropriate provider for your platform.

`replace`

Valid values: true, false

If true, replace line that matches. If false, do not write line if a match is found

Default value: true

`replace_all_matches_not_matching_line`

Valid values: true, false

Configures the behavior of replacing all lines in a file which match the match parameter regular expression, regardless of whether the specified line is already present in the file.

Default value: false

Functions

`any2array`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

Empty argument lists are converted to an empty array. Arrays are left untouched. Hashes are converted to arrays of alternating keys and values.

Note: since Puppet 5.0.0 it is possible to create new data types for almost any datatype using the type system and the built-in Array.new function is used to create a new Array..

$hsh = {'key' => 42, 'another-key' => 100}
notice(Array($hsh))

Would notice [['key', 42], ['another-key', 100]]

The Array data type also has a special mode to "create an array if not already an array"

notice(Array({'key' => 42, 'another-key' => 100}, true))

Would notice [{'key' => 42, 'another-key' => 100}], as the true flag prevents the hash from being transformed into an array.

Returns: Array The new array containing the given object

`any2bool`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

In practise it does the following:

Strings such as Y,y,1,T,t,TRUE,yes,'true' will return true
Strings such as 0,F,f,N,n,FALSE,no,'false' will return false
Booleans will just return their original value
Number (or a string representation of a number) > 0 will return true, otherwise false
undef will return false
Anything else will return true

Also see the built-in Boolean.new function.

`any2bool()`

In practise it does the following:

Strings such as Y,y,1,T,t,TRUE,yes,'true' will return true
Strings such as 0,F,f,N,n,FALSE,no,'false' will return false
Booleans will just return their original value

Also see the built-in Boolean.new function.

Returns: Boolean The boolean value of the object that was given

`assert_private`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

Calling the class or definition from outside the current module will fail.

`assert_private()`

Calling the class or definition from outside the current module will fail.

Returns: Any set the current class or definition as private.

`base64`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

*Note: Since Puppet 4.8.0, the Binary data type can be used to produce base 64 encoded strings. See the new() function for the Binary and String types for documentation. Also see binary_file() function for reading a file with binary (non UTF-8) content.

Examples

Example usage


Encode and decode a string

  $encodestring = base64('encode', 'thestring')
  $decodestring = base64('decode', 'dGhlc3RyaW5n')

Explicitly define encode/decode method: default, strict, urlsafe

  $method = 'default'
  $encodestring = base64('encode', 'thestring', $method)
  $decodestring = base64('decode', 'dGhlc3RyaW5n', $method)

Encode a string as if it was binary

 $encodestring = String(Binary('thestring', '%s'))

Decode a Binary assuming it is an UTF-8 String

 $decodestring = String(Binary("dGhlc3RyaW5n"), "%s")

`base64()`

*Note: Since Puppet 4.8.0, the Binary data type can be used to produce base 64 encoded strings. See the new() function for the Binary and String types for documentation. Also see binary_file() function for reading a file with binary (non UTF-8) content.

Returns: String The encoded/decoded

Examples

`count`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

Takes an array as first argument and an optional second argument. Counts the number of elements in array that is equal to the second argument. If called with only an array, it counts the number of elements that are not nil/undef/empty-string.

Note: equality is tested with a Ruby method and it is therefore subject to what Ruby considers to be equal. For strings this means that equality is case sensitive.

In Puppet core, counting can be done in general by using a combination of the core functions filter() (since Puppet 4.0.0) and length() (since Puppet 5.5.0, before that in stdlib).

Example below shows counting values that are not undef.

notice([42, "hello", undef].filter |$x| { $x =~ NotUndef }.length)

Would notice the value 2.

`count()`

Note: equality is tested with a Ruby method and it is therefore subject to what Ruby considers to be equal. For strings this means that equality is case sensitive.

$hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'five' => 5 } }
$merged_hash = deep_merge($hash1, $hash2)

The resulting hash is equivalent to:

$merged_hash = { 'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'four' => 4, 'five' => 5 } }

When there is a duplicate key that is a hash, they are recursively merged.
When there is a duplicate key that is not a hash, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."

`deep_merge()`

The deep_merge function.

Returns: Hash The merged

Examples

Example usage


$hash1 = {'one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => { 'four' => 4 } }
$hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'five' => 5 } }
$merged_hash = deep_merge($hash1, $hash2)

The resulting hash is equivalent to:

$merged_hash = { 'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'four' => 4, 'five' => 5 } }

When there is a duplicate key that is a hash, they are recursively merged.
When there is a duplicate key that is not a hash, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."

$real_jenkins_version = pick($::jenkins_version, '1.449')

Note: The value of $real_jenkins_version will first look for a top-scope variable called 'jenkins_version' (note that parameters set in the Puppet Dashboard/ Enterprise Console are brought into Puppet as top-scope variables), and, failing that, will use a default value of 1.449.

`pick()`

This function is similar to a coalesce function in SQL.

Typically, this function is used to check for a value in the Puppet Dashboard/Enterprise Console, and failover to a default value like the following:

$real_jenkins_version = pick($::jenkins_version, '1.449')

Note: The value of $real_jenkins_version will first look for a top-scope variable called 'jenkins_version' (note that parameters set in the Puppet Dashboard/ Enterprise Console are brought into Puppet as top-scope variables), and, failing that, will use a default value of 1.449.

Returns: Any the first value in a list of values that is not undefined or an empty string.

`pick_default`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

`stdlib::merge`

Type: Ruby 4.x API

When there is a duplicate key, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."

Note that since Puppet 4.0.0 the same merge can be achieved with the + operator. $merged_hash = $hash1 + $hash2

If stdlib::merge is given a single Iterable (Array, Hash, etc.) it will call a given block with up to three parameters, and merge each resulting Hash into the accumulated result. All other types of values returned from the block (typically undef) are skipped (not merged).

The codeblock can take 2 or three parameters:

with two, it gets the current hash (as built to this point), and each value (for hash the value is a [key, value] tuple)
with three, it gets the current hash (as built to this point), the key/index of each value, and then the value

If the iterable is empty, or no hash was returned from the given block, an empty hash is returned. In the given block, a call to next() will skip that entry, and a call to break() will end the iteration.

The iterative stdlib::merge() has an advantage over doing the same with a general reduce() in that the constructed hash does not have to be copied in each iteration and thus will perform much better with large inputs.

Examples

Using stdlib::merge()

$hash1 = {'one' => 1, 'two', => 2}
$hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three', => 'tres'}
$merged_hash = stdlib::merge($hash1, $hash2) # $merged_hash =  {'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => 'tres'}

counting occurrences of strings in an array

['a', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'd', 'b'].stdlib::merge | $hsh, $v | { { $v => $hsh[$v].lest || { 0 } + 1 } } # results in { a => 1, b => 2, c => 2, d => 1 }

skipping values for entries that are longer than 1 char

['a', 'b', 'c', 'c', 'd', 'b', 'blah', 'blah'].stdlib::merge | $hsh, $v | { if $v =~ String[1,1] { { $v => $hsh[$v].lest || { 0 } + 1 } } } # results in { a => 1, b => 2, c => 2, d => 1 }

Examples

Example Usage:

$hash = {
  "key1" => "value1",
  "key2" => { "key2.1" => "value2.1"},
  "key3" => "value3"
}
$data = $hash.stdlib::nested_values
#Output : ["value1", "value2.1", "value3"]

`stdlib::nested_values(Hash $hash)`

Returns: Array All the values found in the input hash included those deeply nested.

Examples

Example Usage:

$hash = {
  "key1" => "value1",

  "key3" => "value3"
}
$data = $hash.stdlib::nested_values

  iterations => $pw_info['interations'],
  password   => $pw_info['password_hex'],
  salt       => $pw_info['salt_hex'],
}

Sensitive password and salt

$pw = Sensitive.new('Pa55w0rd')
$salt = Sensitive.new('Use a s@lt h3r3 th@t is 32 byt3s')
$pw_info = Sensitive.new(str2saltedpbkdf2($pw, $salt, 50000))
user { 'jdoe':
  ensure     => present,
  iterations => unwrap($pw_info)['interations'],
  password   => unwrap($pw_info)['password_hex'],

`validate_augeas`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

The first argument of this function should be a string to test, and the second argument should be the name of the Augeas lens to use. If Augeas fails to parse the string with the lens, the compilation will abort with a parse error.

A third argument can be specified, listing paths which should not be found in the file. The $file variable points to the location of the temporary file being tested in the Augeas tree.

Examples

Usage


If you want to make sure your passwd content never contains
a user `foo`, you could write:

  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/foo'])

If you wanted to ensure that no users used the '/bin/barsh' shell,
you could use:

  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/*[shell="/bin/barsh"]']

If a fourth argument is specified, this will be the error message raised and
seen by the user.

A helpful error message can be returned like this:

  validate_augeas($sudoerscontent, 'Sudoers.lns', [], 'Failed to validate sudoers content with Augeas')

`validate_augeas()`

A third argument can be specified, listing paths which should not be found in the file. The $file variable points to the location of the temporary file being tested in the Augeas tree.

Returns: Any validate string using an Augeas lens

Examples

Usage

a user `foo`, you could write:

  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/foo'])

If you wanted to ensure that no users used the '/bin/barsh' shell,
you could use:

  validate_augeas($passwdcontent, 'Passwd.lns', ['$file/*[shell="/bin/barsh"]']

If a fourth argument is specified, this will be the error message raised and
seen by the user.

A helpful error message can be returned like this:

  validate_augeas($sudoerscontent, 'Sudoers.lns', [], 'Failed to validate sudoers content with Augeas')

`validate_cmd`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

The first argument of this function should be a string to test, and the second argument should be a path to a test command taking a % as a placeholder for the file path (will default to the end). If the command, launched against a tempfile containing the passed string, returns a non-null value, compilation will abort with a parse error. If a third argument is specified, this will be the error message raised and seen by the user.

A helpful error message can be returned like this:

Examples

Usage


Defaults to end of path
  validate_cmd($sudoerscontent, '/usr/sbin/visudo -c -f', 'Visudo failed to validate sudoers content')

% as file location
  validate_cmd($haproxycontent, '/usr/sbin/haproxy -f % -c', 'Haproxy failed to validate config content')

`validate_cmd()`

A helpful error message can be returned like this:

Returns: Any validate of a string with an external command

`values_at`

Type: Ruby 3.x API

The first argument is the array you want to analyze, and the second element can be a combination of:

A single numeric index
A range in the form of 'start-stop' (eg. 4-9)
An array combining the above

Note: Since Puppet 4.0.0 it is possible to slice an array with index and count directly in the language. A negative value is taken to be "from the end" of the array:

['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][1, 2] results in ['b', 'c'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][2, -1] results in ['c', 'd'] ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'][1, -2] results in ['b', 'c']

Examples

Usage


values_at(['a','b','c'], 2)
Would return ['c']
