Puppet Bolt show diff

[Brent Clark]

Good day Guys

In the traditional, master - agent sense, when ever puppet changes a
file, you would see the "diff/changes" been applied.

Can bolt too show the changes applied?

The result of an apply statement in a Bolt Plan is a ResultSet (a list of results from each target). The results include the report from applying Puppet, which includes all those details. See https://puppet.com/docs/bolt/latest/applying_manifest_blocks.html#return-value-of-apply-action for how to access that. The log output itself is available as well, see the comments on https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/BOLT-901 for an example of printing those logs. I think making some helpers for printing report results would be a useful module to add to the Forge.

https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/BOLT-991 was opened to get more progressive log output, but hasn't been re-opened after moving to GitHub Issues.
