This module was designed for Puppet versions 2 and 3. It should work also on Puppet 4 but doesn't use any of its features.

The current Puppet 3 compatible codebase is no longer actively maintained by example42.

Still, Pull Requests that fix bugs or introduce backwards compatible features will be accepted.

This is a Puppet apache module from the second generation of Example42 Puppet Modules.

This module requires functions provided by the Example42 Puppi module.

For detailed info about the logic and usage patterns of Example42 modules read README.usage on Example42 main modules set.

• Install apache with a custom httpd.conf template and some virtual hosts

   class{'apache': template => 'example42/apache/httpd.conf.erb', } apache::vhost{'mysite': docroot => '/path/to/docroot', template => 'example42/apache/vhost/mysite.com.erb', } 

• Install mod ssl

   include apache::ssl 

• Manage basic auth users (Here user joe is created with the $crypt_password on the defined htpasswd_file

   apache::htpasswd{'joe': crypt_password => 'B5dPQYYjf.jjA', htpasswd_file => '/etc/httpd/users.passwd', } 

• Manage custom configuration files (created in conf.d, source or content can be defined)

   apache::dotconf{'trac': content => template("site/trac/apache.conf.erb") } 

• Add other listening ports (a relevant NameVirtualHost directive is automatically created)

   apache::listen{'8080': } 

• Add other listening ports without creating a relevant NameVirtualHost directive

   apache::listen{'8080': $namevirtualhost = false, } 

• Add an apache module and manage its configuraton

   apache::module{'proxy': templatefile => 'site/apache/module/proxy.conf.erb', } 

• Install mod passenger

   include apache::passenger 

• Install apache with default settings

   class{"apache": } 

• Disable apache service.

   class{"apache": disable => true } 

• Disable apache service at boot time, but don't stop if is running.

   class{"apache": disableboot => true } 

• Remove apache package

   class{"apache": absent => true } 

• Enable auditing without making changes on existing apache configuration files

   class{"apache": audit_only => true } 

• Install apache with a specific version

   class{"apache": version => '2.2.22' } 

• Simple way to manage default apache configuration

   apache::vhost{'default': docroot => '/var/www/document_root', server_name => false, priority => '', template => 'apache/virtualhost/vhost.conf.erb', } 

• Using a source file to create the vhost

   apache::vhost{'default': source => 'puppet:///files/web/default.conf', template => '', } 

• Use custom sources for main config file

   class{"apache": source => [ "puppet:///modules/lab42/apache/apache.conf-${hostname}" , "puppet:///modules/lab42/apache/apache.conf" ], } 

• Use custom source directory for the whole configuration dir

   class{"apache": source_dir => "puppet:///modules/lab42/apache/conf/", source_dir_purge => false, # Set to true to purge any existing file not present in $source_dir } 

• Use custom template for main config file

   class{"apache": template => "example42/apache/apache.conf.erb", } 

• Define custom options that can be used in a custom template without the need to add parameters to the apache class

   class{"apache": template => "example42/apache/apache.conf.erb", options =>{'LogLevel' => 'INFO', 'UsePAM' => 'yes', }, } 

• Automaticallly include a custom subclass

   class{"apache:" my_class => 'apache::example42', } 

• Manage apache configuration using Hiera

apache::template: 'modules/apache/apache2.conf.erb'apache::options: timeout: '300'keepalive: 'On'maxkeepaliverequests: '100'keepalivetimeout: '5'

• Defining Apache resources using Hiera

apache::virtualhost_hash: 'mysite.com': documentroot: '/var/www/mysite.com'aliases: 'www.mysite.com'apache::htpasswd_hash: 'myuser': crypt_password: 'password1'htpasswd_file: '/etc/apache2/users.passwd'apache::listen_hash: '8080': namevirtualhost: '*'apache::module_hash: 'status': ensure: present

• Activate puppi (recommended, but disabled by default) Note that this option requires the usage of Example42 puppi module

   class{"apache": puppi => true, } 

• Activate puppi and use a custom puppi_helper template (to be provided separately with a puppi::helper define ) to customize the output of puppi commands

   class{"apache": puppi => true, puppi_helper => "myhelper", } 

• Activate automatic monitoring (recommended, but disabled by default) This option requires the usage of Example42 monitor and relevant monitor tools modules

   class{"apache": monitor => true, monitor_tool => [ "nagios" , "monit" , "munin" ], } 

• Activate automatic firewalling This option requires the usage of Example42 firewall and relevant firewall tools modules

   class{"apache": firewall => true, firewall_tool => "iptables", firewall_src => "10.42.0.0/24", firewall_dst => "$ipaddress_eth0", }
