[Pkg-puppet-devel] RFP: puppetdb-termini -- Enable a Puppet master to connect to PuppetDB

[Georg Faerber]

Hi,

I think the following might be of interest:

I've tested the proposed way of intrigeri, which is described at [1]:

> puppetdb-termini has no dependencies except puppet-agent. It just
> ships 16 .rb files, that live in the upstream Puppet Git repository,
> and are distributed in PuppetDB upstream tarballs.

This is described at [2] as well.

I've set up a puppetmaster out of j-bp, copied the .rb files into
'/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet', set up upstream puppetdb in another
machine, and configured the puppetmaster to talk to the puppetdb. This
works as expected, and creating a puppet-termini package doesn't seem to
be hard. As the puppet packages are team maintained, I could join the
team and create such an initial package, if that's the way to go.

However, reading Apollons recent mail [3], I'm wondering if this is still
needed.

I'm Cc:ing the puppet maintainers - any opinions about this?

Thanks for your work and all the best,
Georg
