Can puppet add repositories to nodes?

[Sandra Schlichting]

Hi all,

I would like to add two repositories to Ubuntu nodes

apt-add-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner"

deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main

and then import the key

apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 16126D3A3E5C1192

Can this be done in a clever way with puppet?

Hugs,

Sandra

Hi Sandra,

The Puppet Apt module should be of some use:

What I've done is use use file resources and the following apt locations:

/etc/apt/sources.list.d
/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d

and and exec resource to "apt-get update" when subscribed to the above files.

Thanks a lot for both solutions!!

I am actually going to use both as for normal hosts Joe's solution is good, and Matt's for LTSP clients =)
