I have a requirement wherein i need to spin up a docker image from my Centos 7 VM to build a puppet master with hiera data and to run puppet agent which has a catalog with role and profile modules. I need to do this with beaker-rspec. Any ideas or links to documentation as to how to create puppet master from beaker-rspec? Please provide examples. TIA.
P.S: I found a way to scp to host the hiera data and hiera.yaml but that didn't fetch the hiera data in the modules. Hiera data for all the fields were blank.

Where is the proper place to put templates using roles and profiles practices?
I'm trying to create a template for use by the motd class in my base profile. I'm not quite sure where I should put it though. I'm also having trouble referencing the path from with the class.
Here is my control data structure:
/site/profile/manifests
--> base.pp
--> templates/
----> motd.erb
base.pp:
class profile::base {
class { 'motd':
template => 'templates/motd.erb'
}
}
But I get the following when trying to deploy it:
> Could not find template> 'templates/motd.erb' at> /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/wsaxton/modules/motd/manifests/init.pp:22:21> on node drmbksca.local

How to use role custom fact in Puppet
I'm using a control-repo for my puppet master profiles/roles.
I'm using Hiera and I would like to add role as hierarchy
my hiera.yaml looks like :
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: "/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/%{::environment}/hieradata"
:hierarchy:
- "nodes/%{::trusted.certname}"
- "roles/%{::role}"
- "common"
the puppet agent doesn't seem to have the role fact. so I added a role fact in /etc/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d
But I don't want to do this for every node. I want this to be automatic.
do you have any ideas guys ?

Puppet Powershell execution
I have an application which requires a local account to be required for the configuration.
I have created a module inside that I have 2 folders :
i. files
ii.manifests
under manifests init file I have the below code:
class xyz {
exec { ' app_config':
command => ' C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe -file c:\provisioning\modules\xyz\files\config1.ps1 '
}
}
Under files folder there are 2 files
i. config1.ps1
ii. app_execute.bat
Under config1.ps1 I am creating a local user :
$user = $env:COMPUTERNAME/Testing
$Credentials = New-Object -TypeName System.management.Automation.PScredential -ArgumentList $user, ("test@3456", | Convertto-securestring -ASplaintext -force)
Start-Process C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowershell\v1.0\powershell.exe -Credential $Credentials -ArgumentList " Start-Process
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe -file c:\provisioning\c:\provisioning\modules\xyz\files\app_execute.bat "
Under app_execute.bat
c:\puppet\app.bat -f c:\puppet\responsefile.rsp
The log file shows that the powershell file config1.ps1 got executed successfully, but the application log file is not getting generated, but when executed manually the config1.ps1 the app will get configured.
Not sure, in config1.ps1, I am using a start-process which will create a separate process using the local account.
I think the puppet is not waiting for the above config1.ps1 to be completed succesfully.
Not sure why it is coming out without executing fully, Is there any condition, as we need to execute only one file inside init, as I am initiating 2 processes.
Please advise.

Problems with each loop and future parser
Hey there,
I am writing a small init puppet config to configure my servers without puppet master.
For creating user accounts I want iterate via an each loop over a array of user names
defined in a hiera file.
Without running the future parser my example each loop is not working and if i use it
my data in the yaml file cant be read.
I installed the the puppet-common pkt (vers: 3.8.7-1puppetlabs1) on Ubuntu 12.04. Should each not run
in this version without future parser?
The class iterating over the users:
#modules/manage_users/manifests/init.pp
class manage_users($users,){
group { 'test':
ensure => 'present'
}
['a','b','c'].each |Integer $index, String $value| { notice("${index} = ${value}") }
#each($users) |$user| {
#notify{"user: ${user}",}
# group {"${user}":
# ensure => 'present'
# }
# user { "${user}" :
# ensure => 'present',
# groups => [$user, test],
# home => "/home/${user}",
# shell => '/bin/bash',
# }
}
My hiera.yaml:
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: /etc/puppet/hieradata
:hierarchy:
- lpkb
The yaml with the data:
#hieradata/lpkb.yaml
manage-users::users:
- user1
- user2
manage-users::test: test
puppet.conf:
[main]
logdir=/var/log/puppet
vardir=/var/lib/puppet
ssldir=/var/lib/puppet/ssl
rundir=/var/run/puppet
If I run without future parser:
puppet apply manifests/site.pp
Error:
Error: Syntax error at '['; expected ']' at /etc/puppet/modules/manage_users/manifests/init.pp:7 on node vps1234.localhost.local
Error: Syntax error at '['; expected ']' at /etc/puppet/modules/manage_users/manifests/init.pp:7 on node vps1234.localhost.local
With future parser:
puppet apply --parser=future manifests/site.pp
Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Must pass users to Class[Manage_users] at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:3:5 on node vps1234.localhost.local
Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Must pass users to Class[Manage_users] at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:3:5 on node vps1234.localhost.local

How do I express an empty array in Hiera?
I need to override the default value of class parameter for a module which expects an array. I can do this easily enough with traditional Puppet code:
class { 'foo':
bar => []
}
However, I would like to have all the parameters in Hiera using the automatic class parameter lookup. Can this even be done? BTW, I'm using YAML format.

Set File content via Hiera
Hi,
I am looking for the syntax to set the content for a File resource from hiera. Specifically I want to set the template being used:
# Puppet
class test (
$file_content = undef,
){
file{'/tmp/testfile':
ensure => file,
content => $file_content,
}
}
# Hiera
---
test::file_content: template('modules/test/test.erb')
Since Hiera is returning a string, the template function is not being evaluated.
I am pretty sure I saw this being done somewhere, but I cannot figure out the correct syntax anymore.

Is there a way to declare declare a custom type by it's fully qualified name?
I'm currently using 2 puppet modules, and they both have custom types, which happen to have the same names:
https://github.com/fiddyspence/puppet-zabbix/tree/master/lib/puppet/type
and:
https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-zabbix/tree/master/lib/puppet/type
In this example, we have 2 modules that each have a custom type called "zabbix_host" and "zabbix_hostgroup"
I tried to declare them, but in my case they are being evaluated by the wrong .rb fie. Is there a syntax I can use to refer to a custom type by it's fully qualified name?

Removing a Package if files are absent
Hello,
I have a package that I have in as an rpm. It installs the package initially and then checks to make sure it is installed. However if someone deletes important files within in this package then this is useless because the package is still installed but important files are no longer there. Therefore I would like to check if certain files are missing then to uninstall the package and reinstall it. Is there a way to do this?

How to Install same package with both pip and pip3 provider

I have both Python 2x & 3x scripts running on my server. I have several packages where I need to install both the versions of a package. How can I install the same package name with both pip and pip3? I'm getting errors where the package name is already defined (even though they're in separate classes). I've tried aliasing and that hasn't worked either.

How to map an array within a resource
I've got stuck trying to use Puppet 3.8 to tackle what seems like it should be a simple problem.
My nodes have a number of independent installations of a single system.
I have defined a top-level type which creates instances of many resources. My nodes then declare a number of instances, and all the resources are instantiated, just as I'd like.
Now, I'd like to augment each installation with its own set of externally node-specified directories.
So when my node declares...
installation { "user1":
subdirs => ["subdir1", "subdir2"]
}
I'd like to end up creating (say)
/home/user1/subdir1
/home/user1/subdir2
How do I do that? In particular, how (within the class) do I transform the list of subdirectory names["subdir1", "subdir2"]into names that are unique to the instance of the class, such as
["installation1/$subdir1", "installation1/$subdir2" ]
