Puppet module

[Bilal Ahmad]

Trying to install the module vcsrepo with puppet, but really unsure how it could be done. The commandline to install it is:

puppet module install puppetlabs-vcsrepo

Tried to install it this way, but that didn't work:

package { 'vcsrepo':
        ensure => installed,
        }

Yes, of course I have read it. I was trying to install the module with a puppet script instead of doing it in the commandline. The documentation said nothing about that.

A module is not a package. The way to install modules is to use puppet module install on the command line or to manage it some other way, for example r10k or puppet-librarian, which can be used to manage modules that get installed on the server in an environment.
