r10k_location

Examples

Simple Gitolite Managed Repositories

In order to manage repositories that have no connection to puppet, all you need to provide is an ssh key value. Note that this uses the ssh_key resource type underneath, so it should only be the key and not the key type prefix, nor the comment.

class { gitolite:
  git_key => 'some key val',
}

Integrating r10k

If this is installed on your puppet master machine, then the repository can be integrated with r10k. Hooks will be added to repositories so that any pushes to these repositories result in r10k pulling the updates immediately.

class { gitolite:
  git_key     => 'some key val',
  r10k_update => true,
}
