class boundary {

require boundary::params require boundary::dependencies

$id = $boundary::params::id $apikey = $boundary::params::apikey $collector = $boundary::params::collector $collector_port = $boundary::params::collector_port

file { '/etc/bprobe/': ensure => directory, mode => '0755', owner => 'root', group => 'root', }

package { 'bprobe': ensure => latest, require => File['/etc/bprobe'], }

Puppet has more then a DSLSometimes you just need to write a little ruby

class evil { define loop () { notice("${name}") } loop { ['this', 'is', 'evil']:}}

class{"evil":}

$ puppet apply evil.ppnotice: Scope(Evil::Loop[this]): thisnotice: Scope(Evil::Loop[is]): isnotice: Scope(Evil::Loop[evil]): evil

VagrantLearn to ♥ it

node_config.vm.provision :puppet do |puppet| puppet.manifests_path = 'provision/manifests' puppet.module_path = 'provision/modules'end
