Overview

This module installs and configures Facebook's HHVM for you. It aims to use sane defaults and be easily configurable with hiera.

Dependencies

HHVM depends on

• puppetlabs/stdlib
• puppetlabs/apt for the repository configureation
• maestrodev/wget for the highly experimental pgsql support.

Usage

To use the module simply use the base class which will do everything you need. You may turn off repo management or use the highly experimental pgsql support.

class { '::hhvm':
  manage_repos => true,
  pgsql        => false
}

Additional configs (with defaults):

hhvm::config::user: www-data   # user to run server with
hhvm::config::group: www-data  # group to run server with
hhvm::config::port: 9000       # port for fastcgi server
hhvm::config::settings: []     # augeas commands for php.ini

Example config:

hhvm::config::user: vagrant
hhvm::config::group: users
hhvm::config::port: 9090
hhvm::config::settings:
  - set .anon/date.timezone Europe/Berlin

Limitations

Currently only tested with Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr
