= puppet-rundeck

Integrates Puppet with RunDeck.

Visiting the URL, for example localhost:8144, should return a list of all nodes on the Puppet master and populates the appropriate facts for use with RunDeck.

Note: Version 0.0.2 and earlier required stored configuration to be enabled. Later versions do not.

== Prerequisites

Requires:

Puppet (0.25.5 and later)

== Installation

Install the gem:

$ sudo gem install puppet-rundeck

== Usage

Run the puppet-rundeck binary. We've assumed you're running puppet-rundeck on the Puppet master host.

$ puppet-rundeck

Then browse to appropriate URL, by default localhost:8144

$ curl localhost:8144

A list of the current hosts and appropriate facts to configure them on RunDeck will be returned in XML.

For example:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><!DOCTYPE project PUBLIC "-//DTO Labs Inc.//DTD Resources Document 1.0//EN" "project.dtd">
  <project>
    <node name="pelin.lovedthanlost.net"
    type="Node"
    description="pelin.lovedthanlost.net"
    osArch="Linux"
    osFamily="Linux"
    osName="Fedora"
    osVersion="14"
    tags="production"
    username="root"
    hostname="pelin.lovedthanlost.net"/>
  </project>

To use with RunDeck specify the target URL as the value of the project.resources.url option in the project.properties file for your project, for example:

project.resources.url = http://localhost:8144

Yo can also specify a required tag to filter the node list, to provide different project URLs based on the same Puppet server and Puppet-Rundeck instance:

project.resources.url = http://localhost:8144/tag/production

You can specify some configuration options:

-c or --config to override the default Puppet configuration file (defaults to /etc/puppet/puppet.conf)
-u or --username the user for RunDeck to SSH as, defaults to current user
-p or --port the port to start puppet-rundeck on, default to 8144

Original concept heavily stolen from Adam Jacob's chef-rundeck gem.
