This gem provides a linter to validate a Puppet module is correctly documented for use with Kafo, a library that generates an "installer" from modules.

Add this line to your module's Gemfile:

gem 'kafo_module_lint', '~> 1.0'

It's highly recommended to also include the puppet-lint-param-docs lint plugin to ensure all parameters are documented:

gem 'puppet-lint-param-docs'

Add this line to your module's Rakefile:

require 'kafo_module_lint/tasks'

This will automatically register a new lint:kafo_module task and enhance the lint task if it exists (i.e. from puppet-lint).

puppet-lint should also be enabled by following its Usage instructions to run the puppet-lint-param-docs plugin.

With both enabled, running rake lint will check the module for correctness.

Alternatively, run kafo-module-lint to check all manifests or pass individual paths to check one or more files.

Customise the rake task with a configuration block:

KafoModuleLint::RakeTask.new do |lint|
  lint.pattern = ['manifests/init.pp']
end

It supports:

• lint.modulepath - module path to load custom types from, defaults to spec/fixtures/modules
• lint.pattern - files to lint check, defaults to manifests/**/*.pp
