This module is meant to be used by puppet apply to bootstrap a puppet client to speak to a puppet master. I developed this to use for a vsphere cloud -> puppet provisioning workflow.

This module requires you to set the address of the puppetmaster and the environment variables in manifests/init.pp.

This module modifies the puppet.conf file attributes for server and environment.

none

This module requires puppetlabs-stdlib to be in the modulepath.

execute during provisioning with:

puppet apply -modulepath=$PWD -e "include bootstrap"

After that, use your regular puppet workflow to finish configuration of the server.

Here, include a complete list of your module's classes, types, providers, facts, along with the parameters for each. Users refer to this section (thus the name "Reference") to find specific details; most users don't read it per se.

This module has been tested on Centos 6/RHEL 6.
