Building puppet agent for ARM - looking for info on config settings

[JonY]

I have some belief that I've successfully assembled the various bits for 'puppet-runtime' (v6.4). Now Im trying to build the puppet-agent (also v6.4).

  

At the end of the runtime build I have these 4 files:

-rw-r--r--  1 pocl root   514 Aug 11 12:53 agent-runtime-6.4.x-201906190.debian-9-arm-bill-of-materials

-rw-r--r--  1 pocl root  2538 Aug 11 12:52 agent-runtime-6.4.x-201906190.debian-9-arm.json

-rw-r--r--  1 pocl root  4752 Aug 11 12:53 agent-runtime-6.4.x-201906190.debian-9-arm.tar.gz

-rw-r--r--  1 pocl root    99 Aug 11 12:53 agent-runtime-6.4.x-201906190.debian-9-arm.tar.gz.sha1

In the agent build files "puppet-agent.rb" appears to be looking for a file called "#{proj.settings[:puppet_runtime_basename]}.settings.yaml'  but I don't see any reference to this in the runtime Makefile. 

Im trying to work around this omission but am wondering what to use for these settings:  

  proj.setting(:puppet_configdir, File.join(proj.sysconfdir, 'puppet'))

  proj.setting(:puppet_codedir, File.join(proj.sysconfdir, 'code'))

  # Target directory for vendor modules

  proj.setting(:module_vendordir, File.join(proj.prefix, 'vendor_modules'))

Hi!

How are you building puppet-runtime? If you're using a recent version of vanagon, I would expect you to have an agent-runtime-6.4.x-201906190.debian-9-arm.settings.yaml file in addition to the files you listed.

Otherwise, many of the settings used to build puppet-agent (like sysconfdir) are inherited from puppet-runtime here: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet-runtime/blob/master/configs/projects/_shared-agent-settings.rb. So you can determine the appropriate values for your other setting from that.

Hope that helps!
