A Puppet module for installing Bluepill.
The following will install rubygems and the bluepill gem, create the /var/run/bluepill and /etc/bluepill directories, and configure rsyslog to log bluepill messages to /var/log/bluepill
include bluepill
If you don't use rsyslog, you can disable rsyslog rule generation like this:
class { 'bluepill':
use_rsyslog => false,
}
If you do not want this module to install rubygems, you can disable with:
class { 'bluepill':
rubygems_class => 'UNDEFINED',
}
If you have a process you want to quickly daemonize, you can use the bluepill::simple_app type, which will auto-generate a bluepill config file and init script.
blupill::simple_app { 'my_java_app':
start_command => '/usr/bin/java7 -jar /home/appl/my_java_app.jar',
user => 'appl',
group => 'users',
create_service => true,
service_name => 'my-app', # Will create an init script at /etc/init.d/my-app
logfile => '/var/log/myapp',
rotate_logs => true,
logrotate-options => { # Any valid logrotate::rule options can be supplied here
'rotate' => 4,
},
}
