## Synopsis

Manage sudo configuration via Puppet.

This module implements the following elements:

* __Puppet classes__:
- `sudo`
- `sudo::common`
- `sudo::common::debian`
- `sudo::common::redhat`
- `sudo::params`

* __Puppet definitions__:
- `sudo::alias::command`
- `sudo::alias::host`
- `sudo::alias::user`
- `sudo::conf`
- `sudo::defaults::spec`
- `sudo::directive`

All these components are configured through a set of variables you will find in
[`manifests/params.pp`](manifests/params.pp).

_Note_: the various operations that can be conducted from this repository are piloted from a [`Rakefile`](https://github.com/ruby/rake) and assumes you have a running [Ruby](https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/) installation.
See `docs/contributing.md` for more details on the steps you shall follow to have this `Rakefile` working properly.

## Dependencies

See [`metadata.json`](metadata.json). In particular, this module depends on

* [puppetlabs/stdlib](https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/stdlib)
* [puppetlabs/concat](https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/concat)

## Overview and Usage

### Class `sudo`

This is the main class defined in this module.
Use it as follows:

include ' sudo'

See also [`tests/init.pp`](tests/init.pp)

### Definition `sudo::directive`

The definition `sudo::directive` provides a simple way to write sudo configurations parts.
If you use a `sudo` version >= 1.7.2, the sudo directive part is validated via
`visudo` and removed if syntax is not correct.
This definition accepts the following parameters:

* `$ensure`: default to 'present', can be 'absent' (BEWARE: it will remove the
associated file)
* `$content`: specify the contents of the directive as a string
* `$source`: copy a file as the content of the directive.

Example:

sudo::directive {'admin_users':
content => "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL\n",
}

sudo::directive {'vagrant':
content => "%vagrant ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL\n"
}

On recent version of sudo, this will typically create a new file `/etc/sudoers.d/admin_users` (or `/etc/sudoers.d/vagrant`).

See also [`tests/directive.pp`](tests/directive.pp)

### Definition `sudo::alias::command`

Permits to define a command alias in the `sudoers` files (directive `Cmnd_Alias`)
These are groups of related commands...

This definition accepts the following parameters:

* `$ensure`: default to 'present', can be 'absent'
* `$commandlist`: List of commands to add in the definition of the alias

Example:

sudo::alias::command{ 'NETWORK':
cmdlist => [ '/sbin/route', '/sbin/ifconfig', '/bin/ping', '/sbin/dhclient', '/sbin/iptables' ]
}

This will create the following entry in the sudoers files:

## Networking
Cmnd_Alias NETWORK = /sbin/route, /sbin/ifconfig, /bin/ping, /sbin/dhclient, /sbin/iptables

See also [`tests/alias/command.pp`](tests/alias/command.pp)

### Definition `sudo::alias::user`

Permits to define a user alias in the sudoers files (directive User_Alias)
These aren't often necessary, as you can use regular groups
(ie, from files, LDAP, NIS, etc) in this file - just use `%groupname`
rather than `USERALIAS`

This definition accepts the following parameters:

* `$ensure`: default to 'present', can be 'absent'
* `$commandlist`: list of users to add in the definition of the alias

Example:

sudo::alias::user{ 'ADMINS':
userlist => [ 'jsmith', 'mikem' ]
}

This will create the following entry in the `sudoers` files:

User_Alias ADMINS = jsmith, mikem

See also [`tests/alias/user.pp`](tests/alias/user.pp)

### Definition `sudo::defaults::spec`

Permits to define a default specifications
This definition accepts the following parameters:

* `$ensure`: default to 'present', can be 'absent'
* `$content`: specify the contents of the directive as a string
* `$source`: copy a file as the content of the directive.

Examples

sudo::defaults::spec { 'env_keep':
content => "
Defaults env_reset
Defaults env_keep = \"COLORS DISPLAY HOSTNAME LS_COLORS\"
Defaults env_keep += \"MAIL PS1 PS2 USERNAME LANG LC_ADDRESS LC_CTYPE\"
Defaults env_keep += \"LC_COLLATE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASUREMENT LC_MESSAGES\"
Defaults env_keep += \"LC_TIME LC_ALL LANGUAGE\"\n",
}

This will create the following entry in the sudoers files:

```
Defaults env_reset
Defaults env_keep = "COLORS DISPLAY HOSTNAME LS_COLORS"
Defaults env_keep += "MAIL PS1 PS2 USERNAME LANG LC_ADDRESS LC_CTYPE"
Defaults env_keep += "LC_COLLATE LC_IDENTIFICATION LC_MEASUREMENT LC_MESSAGES"
Defaults env_keep += "LC_TIME LC_ALL LANGUAGE"
```

See also [`tests/defaults/spec.pp`](tests/defaults/spec.pp)

## Librarian-Puppet / R10K Setup

You can of course configure the sudo module in your `Puppetfile` to make it available with [Librarian puppet](http://librarian-puppet.com/) or
[r10k](https://github.com/adrienthebo/r10k) by adding the following entry:

# Modules from the Puppet Forge
mod "ULHPC-sudo"

or, if you prefer to work on the git version:

mod "ULHPC-sudo",
:git => 'https://github.com/ULHPC/puppet-sudo',
:ref => 'production'

## Puppet modules tests within a Vagrant box

The best way to test this module in a non-intrusive way is to rely on [Vagrant](http://www.vagrantup.com/).
The `Vagrantfile` at the root of the repository pilot the provisioning various vagrant boxes available on [Vagrant cloud](https://atlas.hashicorp.com/boxes/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&sort=&provider=virtualbox&q=svarrette) you can use to test this module.

See [`docs/vagrant.md`](vagrant.md) for more details.

## Online Documentation

[Read the Docs](https://readthedocs.org/) aka RTFD hosts documentation for the open source community and the [ULHPC-sudo](https://github.com/ULHPC/puppet-sudo) puppet module has its documentation (see the `docs/` directly) hosted on [readthedocs](http://ulhpc-puppet-sudo.rtfd.org).

See [`docs/rtfd.md`](rtfd.md) for more details.
