I'm currently working on developing a custom module for Puppet. That is my first Puppet module, I'm following tutorials and documentation here
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/getting-started-with-puppet-code-manifests-and-modules https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/module_guides/bgtm.html https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/modules_fundamentals.html https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/module_guides/bgtm.html
My setup is the following:
- I picked the basic configuration from puphpet.com
- Provisioned the instance with vagrant locally
- Added new module to the modules folder and working on that module.
What slows development is that I have to run the full provisioning every time to see how changes to my module work with vagrant provision --provision-with puppet
. Or I can run simple instruction from my module like puppet apply <path-to-simple-pp-file>
.
But that looks not effective, I'd like to just call part of provisioning related to my module, i.e. call apply for my module only. Is there a way to do that? It looks like something too obvious that it is not mentioned anywhere or I don't know what should I search for.
My question is: how do I re-run application/provisioning of one single module among all the other modules available in current puppet config.
UPDATE: I'm not using client/server puppet, or at least I think I'm not using it. And not going to use. Plan is to have instance provisioned with vagrant + puppet, but without any remote puppet server.
