puppet-elasticsearch

A puppet module for managing elasticsearch nodes

http://www.elasticsearch.org/

Usage

Installation, make sure service is running and will be started at boot time:

 class { 'elasticsearch': }

Removal/decommissioning:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   ensure => 'absent',
 }

Install everything but disable service(s) afterwards:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   status => 'disabled',
 }

Disable automated restart of Elasticsearch on config file change:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   restart_on_change => false
 }

For the config variable a hash needs to be passed:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   config                   => {
     'node'                 => {
       'name'               => 'elasticsearch001'
     },
     'index'                => {
       'number_of_replicas' => '0',
       'number_of_shards'   => '5'
     },
     'network'              => {
       'host'               => $::ipaddress
     }
   }
 }

Short write up of the config hash is also possible.

Instead of writing the full hash representation:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   config                 => {
     'cluster'            => {
       'name'             => 'ClusterName',
       'routing'          => {
         'allocation'     => {
           'awareness'    => {
             'attributes' => 'rack'
           }
         }
       }
     }
   }
 }

You can write the dotted key naming:

 class { 'elasticsearch':
   config => {
     'cluster' => {
       'name' => 'ClusterName',
       'routing.allocation.awareness.attributes' => 'rack'
     }
   }
 }

Manage templates

Add a new template

 elasticsearch::template { 'templatename':
   file => 'puppet:///path/to/template.json'
 }

Delete a template

 elasticsearch::template { 'templatename':
   delete => true
 }

Replace a template

 elasticsearch::template { 'templatename':
   file    => 'puppet:///path/to/template.json',
   replace => true
 }

Host

Default it uses localhost:9200 as host. you can change this with the 'host' and 'port' variables

 elasticsearch::template { 'templatename':
   host => $::ipaddress,
   port => 9200
 }
