Gunicorn via Hiera

[linuxmail]

hi,

Affected Puppet, Ruby, OS and module versions/distributions

• Puppet: 5
• Distribution: Debian Stretch
• Module version: 3.0.1

I try to configure Gunicorn via Hiera and tried to use create_resources, which isn't working

• profile.pp

class profile::webserver::gunicorn {
  contain python

  $python_gunicorn =  hiera('python::gunicorn', {})
  create_resources('python::gunicorn', $python_gunicorn)
}

backend.yaml

python::gunicorn:
  'vhost':
    ensure: 'present'
    virtualenv: "/opt/backoffice-backend/django"
    mode: 'wsgi'
    dir: '/opt/backoffice-backend/django/current'
    bind: 'unix:/var/tmp/gunicorn.socket'
    owner: 'www-data'
    group: 'www-data'
    workers: '30'
    manage_config_dir: 'true'
    environment: 'prod'
    osenv:
      'DBHOST': 'dc.example'
    timeout: 30

But I get always:

 Error while evaluating a Function Call, Class[Python]: parameter 'gunicorn' expects a match for Enum['absent', 'latest', 'present']
, got Struct

So, can someone tell me, what I'm doing wrong ?

the python class has the parameter gunicorn so automatic paramer lookup when calling the python module is hitting that. rewriting your code as follows should help

class profile::webserver::gunicorn (
  $python_gunicorn = {}
){
  contain python
  create_resources('python::gunicorn', $python_gunicorn)
}

config.yaml

profile::webserver::gunicorn::python_gunicorn:
  'vhost':
    ensure: 'present'
    virtualenv: "/opt/backoffice-backend/django"
    mode: 'wsgi'
    dir: '/opt/backoffice-backend/django/current'
    bind: 'unix:/var/tmp/gunicorn.socket'
    owner: 'www-data'
    group: 'www-data'
    workers: '30'
    manage_config_dir: 'true'
    environment: 'prod'
    osenv:
      'DBHOST': 'dc.example'
    timeout: 30
