puppetdb_foreman

Code Climate Gem Version Dependency Status Issue stats

This is a Foreman plugin to interact with PuppetDB.

It does the following:

  • Disables hosts on PuppetDB after they are deleted in Foreman.
  • Proxies the PuppetDB Performance Dashboard for access through Foreman.

Feel free to raise issues, ask for features, anything, in the github repository or #theforeman IRC channel in Freenode.

Installation:

From packages

Set up the appropriate repository by following these instructions

RPM users can install the ruby193-rubygem-puppetdb_foreman (SCL) or rubygem-puppetdb_foreman (non SCL) packages.

deb users can install the ruby-puppetdb-foreman package.

From Rubygems

Add to bundler.d/Gemfile.local.rb as:

gem 'puppetdb_foreman'

then update & restart Foreman:

bundle update

service restart foreman or equivalent

Versioning

puppetdb_foreman uses Semantic Versioning 2.0.0

Usage:

Go to Administer > Settings > PuppetDB and set puppetdb_address with your PuppetDB address, puppetdb_dashboard_address (optional) to proxy the dashboard, puppetdb_enabled to either true or false if you want to enable or disable PuppetDB integration. Obviously you will need a PuppetDB instance at the address you provide.

Alternatively you can put your settings in config/settings.yaml. Please keep in mind these will be overwritten if changed in the application, and if the application is rebooted, YAML rules will overwrite again your manually changed settings. Hence passing your settings in this format is discouraged, but allowed.

:puppetdb:
  :enabled: true
  :address: 'https://puppetdb:8081/v2/commands'
  :dashboard_address: 'http://puppetdb:8080/dashboard'

You can find the dashboard under Monitor > PuppetDB dashboard. Only administrators and users with a role view_puppetdb_dashboard will be able to access it. Aside from convenience, the PuppetDB dashboard cannot be served over HTTPS, you can restrict your dashboard requests to only Foreman boxes and serve it securely to your users through HTTPS in Foreman.
