profile template vs module template

[Asif Iqbal]

I need to use a template from profile module instead of from a component module and not sure how.

This is what I have tried so far

# cat /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests/sssd.pp 

class profile::sssd ( 

  $ldap_default_bind_dn = hiera('ldap_default_bind_dn'),

  $ldap_base = hiera('ldap_base'),

  $ldap_uri  = hiera('ldap_uri'),

  $ldap_access_filter = hiera('ldap_access_filter'),

  $ldap_tls_cacert = hiera('ldap_tls_cacert'),

) {

   include ::sssd

    

   file { '/etc/sssd/sssd.conf':

    ensure  => 'file',

    owner   => 'root',

    group   => 'root',

    mode    => '0600',

    content => template('profile/sssd.conf.erb'),

  } 

}

# cat sssd.pp 

include profile::sssd

# puppet apply sssd.pp 

Error: Duplicate declaration: File[/etc/sssd/sssd.conf] is already declared in file /etc/puppet/modules/sssd/manifests/config.pp:26; cannot redeclare at /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests/sssd.pp:16 on node localhost

Error: Duplicate declaration: File[/etc/sssd/sssd.conf] is already declared in file /etc/puppet/modules/sssd/manifests/config.pp:26; cannot redeclare at /etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests/sssd.pp:16 on node localhost

I need to setup the config file sssd.conf based on profile's template file since some of the parameters I introduced are missing from the component module 

My component module is  evenup-sssd

Need help for a recommended way to fix this

Thanks

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

According to http://www.puppetmodule.info/modules/evenup-sssd/puppet_classes/sssd there is no way to pass in an override to the content of the file.

You can hack it like this:

include ::sssd
File['/etc/sssd/sssd.conf'] {

    content => template('profile/sssd.conf.erb'),

    source => undef,

}

Cheers, David
