Re: apt

[Jeff Schroeder]

Hi Andres, I copied that gist from one of our community members. If I recall, his github username is fatbox as is his nickname on IRC.

I do not have the apt state that gist reference but he might if you can track him down.

Hey Jeff,

Hope you're having a good weekend. I've been playing with Salt a bit more, as promised. It's surprising how easy it is to get it running. Chef took me a few days just to get a server running. 

I did run into a problem using your gist for custom repos:

# salt '*' state.highstate

ubuntu-11.10-server-amd64:

    Data failed to compile:

----------

    Specified SLS apt in environment base is not available on the salt master

Looks like it's not finding the apt sls referenced in the include in line 1 of the gist. Where can I get my hands on it?

Thanks for your help so far,

Andres

Hope this helps. Note it requires 0.9.8 - the watch_in syntax is brand new. Also, you'll obviously have to replace the key names with your own keys (unless you happen to also have keys called 'fatbox' and 'debian-david', which would be weird).

apt/init.sls: 

apt:

  pkg:

    - latest

dselect:

  pkg:

    - latest

apt-update:                                                                                                                                                                       

  cmd:

    - name: /usr/bin/apt-get update   

fatbox/apt.sls: 

include:

  - apt

# our custom sources

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/fatbox.list:

  file:

    - managed

    - source: salt://fatbox/debian/apt/fatbox.list

    - owner: root

    - group: root

    - mode: 644

    - watch_in:

        - cmd: apt-update

# and the key to go with it

{% for key in 'fatbox','debian-david' %}

/etc/apt/{{ key }}.key:

  file:

    - managed

    - source: salt://fatbox/debian/apt/{{ key }}.key

    - owner: root

    - group: root

    - mode: 644

apt-add-{{ key }}-key:

  cmd:

    - wait

    - watch:

      - file: /etc/apt/{{ key }}.key

{% endfor %}
