This tool is deprecated - use the puppet-module tool or in 2.8.0 and later this functionality is merged into the Puppet core.¶ ↑

A simple templating scaffolding system for Puppet

Creates:

• Modules - using the first module directory in the modulepath

• Nodes - creates them in Puppet’s confdir and assumed you’ve used Scaffold’s config template

• Class in a module

• Definition in a module

• Functions - in a specific module

• Types & Providers - in a specific module

• Puppet configuration - creates a base configuration in Puppet’s confdir

Use the –template option to specify the type of template you want to create.

Create a module:

$ scaffold --template=module module

Create a node:

$ scaffold --template=node node

Create a class:

$ scaffold --template=class module class

Create a definition:

$ scaffold --template=define module define

Create a function:

$ scaffold --template=function module function type

Create a type/provider:

$ scaffold --template=type module type

Create Puppet configuration:

$ scaffold --template=puppet

Puppet configuration is created in the directory specified in the Puppet confdir variable but you can override this with the –configdir option.

$ scaffold --template=puppet --configdir=/opt/puppet

• templater (installed as a dependency)

• Puppet (not installed with scaffold)

$ gem install scaffold
