# base: additional providers for Puppet base types
This module provides additional providers for Puppet base types
using the Augeas configuration library.
The advantage of using Augeas over the default Puppet `parsedfile`
implementations is that Augeas will go to great lengths to preserve file
formatting and comments, while also failing safely when needed.
This provider will hide *all* of the Augeas commands etc., you don't need to
know anything about Augeas to make use of it.
## Requirements
Ensure both Augeas and ruby-augeas 0.3.0+ bindings are installed and working as
normal.
See [Puppet/Augeas pre-requisites](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/augeas.html#pre-requisites).
## Installing
The module can be installed easily ([documentation](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/modules_installing.html)):
```
puppet module install puppet/augeasproviders_base
```
## Compatibility
### Puppet versions
See `metadata.json`.
### Augeas versions
Augeas Versions | 0.10.0 | 1.0.0 | 1.1.0 | 1.2.0 |
:-------------------------|:-------:|:-------:|:-------:|:-------:|
**PROVIDERS** |
host | **yes** | **yes** | **yes** | **yes** |
mailalias | **yes** | **yes** | **yes** | **yes** |
## Documentation and examples
Type documentation can be generated with `puppet doc -r type` or viewed on the
[Puppet Forge page](http://forge.puppetlabs.com/herculesteam/augeasproviders_base).
### host provider
This is a provider for a type distributed in Puppet core: [host type
reference](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#host).
The provider needs to be explicitly given as `augeas` to use `augeasproviders`.
#### manage simple entry
host { "example":
ensure => present,
ip => "192.168.1.1",
provider => augeas,
}
#### manage entry with aliases and comment
host { "example":
ensure => present,
ip => "192.168.1.1",
host_aliases => [ "foo-a", "foo-b" ],
comment => "test",
provider => augeas,
}
#### manage entry in another location
host { "example":
ensure => present,
ip => "192.168.1.1",
target => "/etc/anotherhosts",
provider => augeas,
}
#### delete entry
host { "iridium":
ensure => absent,
provider => augeas,
}
#### remove aliases
host { "iridium":
ensure => present,
host_aliases => [],
provider => augeas,
}
#### remove comment
host { "argon":
ensure => present,
comment => "",
provider => augeas,
}
### mailalias provider
This is a provider for a type distributed in Puppet core: [mailalias type
reference](http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#mailalias).
The provider needs to be explicitly given as `augeas` to use `augeasproviders`.
#### manage simple entry
mailalias { "example":
ensure => present,
recipient => "bar",
provider => augeas,
}
#### manage entry with multiple recipients
mailalias { "example":
ensure => present,
recipient => [ "fred", "bob" ],
provider => augeas,
}
#### manage entry in another location
mailalias { "example":
ensure => present,
recipient => "bar",
target => "/etc/anotheraliases",
provider => augeas,
}
#### delete entry
mailalias { "mailer-daemon":
ensure => absent,
provider => augeas,
}
