Simple docker setup for testing puppet modules

• local-puppet-dev
  • Usage
    • Start standalone puppet server
    • Execute puppet agent
    • Puppetfile
    • Modules
    • Manifests

docker compose up -d

# Daemon that executes the agent every 15s
./run_puppet_agent.sh

Puppet module dependencies should be added to the Puppetfile. Modules will be installed when you launch the ./run_puppet_agent.sh daemon.

See module structure docs

• The ./modules directory is the source for all custom puppet modules.
  • These are mapped into /etc/puppetlabs/code/modules in the puppet container.
  • Modules installed via the Puppetfile are installed in /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules
• Changes made are reflected instantly.

The entrypoint(site.pp) contains our custom modules, therefore executing them.

• The manifests directory is mapped into /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests in the puppet container.
