NAME

Puppet::Orchestrator - Connects to the Puppet Orchestrator API (i.e. Puppet Tasks)

VERSION

version 0.002

SYNOPSIS

This module interacts with the Puppet Orchestrator API (i.e. Puppet Tasks)

use Puppet::DB;
use Puppet::Orchestrator;
use Puppet::Classify;

# Create a Puppet DB object
my $puppet_db = Puppet::DB->new(
    server_name => $config->{puppetdb_host},
    server_port => $config->{puppetdb_port},
);

# Create a Puppet classification object
my $classify = Puppet::Classify->new(
                  cert_name       => $config->{puppet_classify_cert},
                  server_name     => $config->{puppet_classify_host},
                  server_port     => $config->{puppet_classify_port},
                  puppet_ssl_path => $config->{puppet_ssl_path},
                  puppet_db       => $puppet_db,
                );

# Create a Puppet orchestrator object
my $orchestrator = Puppet::Orchestrator->new( 
                                      cert_name       => $config->{puppet_orch_cert},
                                      server_name     => $config->{puppet_orch_host},
                                      server_port     => $config->{puppet_orch_port},
                                      puppet_ssl_path => $config->{puppet_ssl_path},
                                      puppet_db       => $puppet_db,
                                    );

$group = "All Nodes";
my $nodes = $classify->get_nodes_matching_group( $group );
my $jobid = $orchestrator->submit_task( "profile::check_id", { "id" => "836" }, $nodes );

$orchestrator->print_output_wait($jobid);

It requires the Puppet::DB module. The Puppet::Classify is recommended as it allows looking up group membership.

server_name

The puppet master that is running the Orchestrator API. Connects to localhost by default.

$orchestrator->server_name('puppet.example.com');

server_port

Connect to the Puppet Orchestrator server on port 8143 by default - this can be overidden when consumed.

$orchestrator->server_port(8754);

access_token

Use an access_token instead of a certificate to connect to the API. This loads the authentication token saved in your home, but it can be set manually if it is not stored there.

say $orchestrator->access_token;

environment

The environment to look in for the task to be run - this can be overidden when consumed. Defaults to 'production'.

$orchestrator->environment('test');

cert_name

the basename of the certificate to be used for authentication. This is a certificate that has been generated on the Puppet Master and added to the whitelist. This can be used instead of using an auth token.

$orchestrator->cert_name('api_access');

puppet_ssl_path

Set the path to the Puppet SSL certs, it uses the Puppet enterprise path by default.

$orchestrator->server_name('puppet.example.com');

timeout

The connection timeout. Defaults to 360 seconds.

$orchestrator->timeout(30);

puppet_db

The puppet DB object used to interact with the Puppet DB.

$orchestrator->puppet_db(Puppet::DB->new);

nodes

A list of nodes to perform the task on

my $nodes = [ qw( node1 node2 ) ];
$orchestrator->nodes($nodes);

job_id

The job ID number

say $orchestrator->job_id;

wait_for_job

This method sleeps until the job is finished or the timeout in seconds is reached. The timeout is optional, if not specified, it will sleep indefinately.

$orchestrator->wait_for_job( $jobid, $timeout );

submit_task

Submit a new task

my $task_name = "package",
my $params = {
               action => "install",
               name   => "httpd",
             }
my $nodes = [ qw( node1 node2 ) ];
my $jobid = $orchestrator->submit_task( $task_name, $params, $nodes );

my $timeout = 20;
$orchestrator->wait_for_job( $jobid, $timeout );

is_job_finished

Simply returns true or false based on whether the job is finished

say "Done" if $is_job_finished->job_id;

This will print the job output as it becomes available and wait until the job is finished.

$orchestrator->print_output_wait;
