Use bolt with existing Puppet manifests

[Matt Shields]

I have an existing Puppet open-source install that I use to manage our infrastructure.  One of our clients is going to be purchasing our SAAS for use in their own datacenter and they are setting up a temporary VPN for us to connect to a group of servers to setup, then they'll be terminating the VPN and they'll manage them.

Since I don't want to install the Puppet agent, can I use Bolt to call each of their servers and run through specific roles/profiles/hiera data?

That’s something we intend to work, and I think it will for straight-forward Code setups using Hiera 5.

‘Bolt apply’ let’s you apply a manifest (hasn’t yet been updated to support a site file with node declarations). You can also use ‘apply’ in Bolt Plans to directly apply roles/profiles.

The folks in the Bolt channel of Puppet Slack should be able to help out too.
