Defined in:
lib/puppet/reports.rb

Overview

This class is an implementation of a simple mechanism for loading and returning reports. The intent is that a user registers a report by calling Reports.register_report and providing a code block that performs setup, and defines a method called process. The setup, and the process method are called in the context where self is an instance of Transaction::Report which provides the actual data for the report via its methods.

Required configuration:

  • A .rb file that defines a new report should be placed in the master’s directory lib/puppet/reports
  • The puppet.conf file must have report = true in the [agent] section

Examples:

Minimal scaffolding for a report…

Puppet::Reports::.register_report(:myreport) do
  # do setup here
  def process
    if self.status == 'failed'
      msg = "failed puppet run for #{self.host} #{self.status}"
      . . . 
    else
      . . .
    end
  end 
end
