I think we should fork and improve #31

Open siebrand opened 1 year ago

siebrand commented 1 year ago

I make extensive use of this module, and it's too bad that @BIAndrews is no longer maintaining it. Has anyone significantly improved on this already, and can we maybe create a forked forge module out of it? The module has been downloaded 32M times, and the latest version has been downloaded 1.1M times at https://forge.puppet.com/modules/bryana/ec2tagfacts. I guess there are enough consumers...

Wish list would be:

I'm interested in your thoughts.

@siebrand Did you fork this module/repo in the end?

siebrand commented 9 months ago

@stevenjones-edf No, I didn’t fork, I refactored it out and started using tags through instance metadata. I was planning on documenting that here at some point and then never got to it. There are a few gotchas in it. At the moment I’ve completely gotten rid of this module and it has simplified installation on the puppet server side.
