Interface-utils is a project mainly written in Ruby, it's free.
publically available extensions to puppet-interfaces project
This is an extension of puppet-interface.
==============
upgrade puppet to 2.6.5 or above
install puppet-interface
install puppet-interface-utils
add puppet-interfaces and interface-utils lib dirs to RUBYLIB
export RUBYLIB=pwd/puppet-interfaces/lib/:pwd/interface-utils/lib/:$RUBYLIB
============
provides wrappers around the existing indirectors/termini
I have been working with Luke to create interfaces that are not wrappers for indirectors
for a full list of functionality run(after setting RUBYLIB):
this should list the interfaces provided by puppet-interface-utils
interfaces are always called from the command line as:
for example:
parser get_class_names - get the names of all classes from modulepath get_classes - get all classes from modulepath get_node_names - get the names of the nodes get_nodes - get the AST nodes
test check_tests = list all manifests that are missing tests compile_tests = compile catalogs for all module tests --run_noop = run the catalogs as noop after you compile them
dashboard puppet dashboard import_classes --dashboard_path=/usr/local/dev/puppet-dashboard/ import all classes from specified modulepath into the Dashboard
======================
Interfaces can also be used programatically:
require 'puppet/interface/parser' interface = Puppet::Interface::Parser.new classes = interface.get_classes([])
