# Puppet Provisioner
|
||
|
|
||
|
Type: `puppet-server`
|
||
|
|
||
|
The Puppet provisioner configures Puppet to run on the machines
|
||
|
communicating with a Puppet master.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<div class="alert alert-info alert-block">
|
||
|
<strong>Note that Puppet will <em>not</em> be installed automatically
|
||
|
by this provisioner.</strong> This provisioner expects that Puppet is already
|
||
|
installed on the machine. It is common practice to use the
|
||
|
<a href="/docs/provisioners/shell.html">shell provisioner</a> before the
|
||
|
Puppet provisioner to do this.
|
||
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Basic Example
|
||
|
|
||
|
The example below is fully functional and expects the configured manifest
|
||
|
file to exist relative to your working directory:
|
||
|
|
||
|
<pre class="prettyprint">
|
||
|
{
|
||
|
"type": "puppet-server",
|
||
|
"options": "--test --pluginsync",
|
||
|
"facter": {
|
||
|
"server_role": "webserver"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuration Reference
|
||
|
|
||
|
The reference of available configuration options is listed below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The provisioner takes various options. None are strictly
|
||
|
required. They are listed below:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `client_cert_path` (string) - Path to the client certificate for the
|
||
|
node on your disk. This defaults to nothing, in which case a client
|
||
|
cert won't be uploaded.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `client_private_key_path` (string) - Path to the client private key for
|
||
|
the node on your disk. This defaults to nothing, in which case a client
|
||
|
private key won't be uploaded.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `facter` (hash) - Additional Facter facts to make available to the
|
||
|
Puppet run.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `options` (string) - Additional command line options to pass
|
||
|
to `puppet agent` when Puppet is ran.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `puppet_node` (string) - The name of the node. If this isn't set,
|
||
|
the fully qualified domain name will be used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `puppet_server` (string) - Hostname of the Puppet server. By default
|
||
|
"puppet" will be used.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* `staging_directory` (string) - This is the directory where all the configuration
|
||
|
of Puppet by Packer will be placed. By default this is "/tmp/packer-puppet-server".
|
||
|
This directory doesn't need to exist but must have proper permissions so that
|
||
|
the SSH user that Packer uses is able to create directories and write into
|
||
|
this folder. If the permissions are not correct, use a shell provisioner
|
||
|
prior to this to configure it properly.
