11.5. Implementation

In order to fully implement puppet module puppet you will need to:

Setup your environment(s), which at the very least includes a production environment.
Setup a default environment for your clients, which by default is development.
Setup a domain specific configuration files and manifest tree.

11.5.1. Setting Up Environments

Create the following directories on your puppet master:

# mkdir -p /var/lib/puppet/modules/{production,testing,development}

For each of these environments, clone the puppet module into the correct directory:

# cd /var/lib/puppet/modules/
# for environment in production testing development; do \
      cd $environment; \
      for module in git puppet webserver; do \
          git clone git://git.puppetmanaged.org/puppet-module-$module $module; \
          cd $module; \
          git checkout -b $environment origin/$environment; \
          cd ..; \
      done; \
      cd ..; \
  done

Now that the modules and it's requirements are in place, you can start populating your domain specific configuration tree.
