Puppet module: varnish

Maintainer wanted

WARNING WARNING WARNING

puppet-varnish is not currently being maintained, and may have unresolved issues or not be up-to-date.

I'm still using it on a daily basis (with Puppet 3.8.5) and fixing issues I find while using it. But sadly, I don't have the time required to actively add new features, fix issues other people report or port it to Puppet 4.x.

If you would like to maintain this module, please create an issue at: https://github.com/netmanagers/puppet-varnish/issues offering yourself.

Getting started

This is a Puppet module for varnish based on the second generation layout ("NextGen") of Example42 Puppet Modules.

Made by Javier Bertoli / Netmanagers

Official site: http://www.netmanagers.com.ar

Official git repository: http://github.com/netmanagers/puppet-varnish

Released under the terms of Apache 2 License.

This module requires functions provided by the Example42 Puppi module (you need it even if you don't use and install Puppi)

For detailed info about the logic and usage patterns of Example42 modules check the DOCS directory on Example42 main modules set.

USAGE - Basic management

Install varnish with default settings
```
class { 'varnish': }
```
Install a specific version of varnish package
```
class { 'varnish':
  version => '1.0.1',
}
```
Disable varnish service.
```
class { 'varnish':
  disable => true
}
```
Remove varnish package
```
class { 'varnish':
  absent => true
}
```
Enable auditing without without making changes on existing varnish configuration files
```
class { 'varnish':
  audit_only => true
}
```
Module dry-run: Do not make any change on all the resources provided by the module
```
class { 'varnish':
  noops => true
}
```

USAGE - Overrides and Customizations

Use custom sources for main config file

class { 'varnish':
  source => [ "puppet:///modules/example42/varnish/varnish.conf-${hostname}" , "puppet:///modules/example42/varnish/varnish.conf" ], 
}

Use custom source directory for the whole configuration dir

class { 'varnish':
  source_dir       => 'puppet:///modules/example42/varnish/conf/',
  source_dir_purge => false, # Set to true to purge any existing file not present in $source_dir
}

Use custom template for main config file. Note that template and source arguments are alternative.
```
class { 'varnish':
  template => 'example42/varnish/varnish.conf.erb',
}
```

Automatically include a custom subclass

class { 'varnish':
  my_class => 'example42::my_varnish',
}

USAGE - Example42 extensions management

Activate puppi (recommended, but disabled by default)
```
class { 'varnish':
  puppi    => true,
}
```
Activate puppi and use a custom puppi_helper template (to be provided separately with a puppi::helper define ) to customize the output of puppi commands
```
class { 'varnish':
  puppi        => true,
  puppi_helper => 'myhelper', 
}
```
Activate automatic monitoring (recommended, but disabled by default). This option requires the usage of Example42 monitor and relevant monitor tools modules
```
class { 'varnish':
  monitor      => true,
  monitor_tool => [ 'nagios' , 'monit' , 'munin' ],
}
```

Activate automatic firewalling. This option requires the usage of Example42 firewall and relevant firewall tools modules

class { 'varnish':       
  firewall      => true,
  firewall_tool => 'iptables',
  firewall_src  => '10.42.0.0/24',
  firewall_dst  => $ipaddress_eth0,
}
