This repository contains a simple "proof-of-concept" environment that is required to test necessary Puppet Modules for Anthill Platform.
You need Librarian Puppet to setup this repository. Install Ruby on your machine, install gem install librarian-puppet and just do librarian-puppet install in the repository folder.
Alternatively, you can install Hiera Editor and then simply open the repositorin in it, the editor will setup everything automatically.
It consists of a two main parts:
This folder contains all of your environments you need. For example, you may need two environments: dev for a
development and early-testing of new features and production for actual production releases.
Every environment folder should have such structure:
environments/
dev/
manifests/
init.pp
modules/
keys/
anthill.pem
anthill.pub
* other keys *
File manifests/init.pp is the main configuration file for the environment. According to the Puppet language,
it tells which service belongs to each node. Please see Puppet Configuration for details.
The submodule modules/keys is a special module for your private keys. Anthill Platform uses asymmetric cryptography
to authenticate users. To do so, an encrypted private/public key pair should be generated
(anthill.pem and anthill.pub from the example above).
Please see How To Generate Keys for a simple instruction on how to generate your keys.
This folder contains all modules Puppet needs, including modules for Anthill Platform itself, and some external modules from open-source developers.
